True enough, but Electro had already become obscure.
not really. Slyde and Spot are obscure. Electro is a regular.

That whole run of Marvel Knights Spider-Man was basically a horrible attempt at trying to give bad villains of the past a more threatening look, and it just annoyed a lot of people.
trying to revamp old villains hardly ever annoys anyone. otherwise johns run on the flash wouldn't be so loved.
though i do admit it seemed to to turn to crap at the end.

The fact that one issue he's dodging Electro's attacks like they're nothing, and in the next he's getting the crap knocked out of him doesn't speak well for his continuity..
Spidey gets hit with electro's attacks about as many time as he dodges.... 50/50

I like the whole trying to make the classic villains a threat and it would have been great if he just left it with Gargan being responsible for everything that was happening...then it turned into another Norman Osborn story which ended with some crap about the government being responsible for super villains
at least the art was constantly great.
still that's hardly nothing compared to what Joe and JMS have done to him.
anyway back on topic. Electro's mask is the only thing that looks horrible. Quicksilvers pure baby blue costume always seemed bad to me.
Galactus= Giant pink and purple armor. nuff said
The second trickster>>>>>>>the first tricksters costume.
Captain colds parka could use less white and yellow...
Spider-mans iron armor
