My New Comic Tattoo Sleeve Phase 1!

So I finally finished the first section of my comic sleeve a couple months ago with the cover to Batman #700. Pics below.

Wanted an Alex Ross version of the classic Black Spiderman costume but seems he's never drawn one. At least not publicly. 😕

So was hoping I could turn to you very knowledgeable comic readers on this forum for suggestions and links to great ideas on other additions to my sleeve and how to get the closest to the Ross style Black Spidey I wanted.

I've also been thinking of eventually adding maybe Deathstroke or Nightwing and Robin(Damien) along with tons of others of my favorites.

I do plan on trying to stick with all shades of black and white on this arm's sleeve for now.

Based on this

You do know that doesn't wash off ? 😛

Looking good!

That's actually exactly what my grandmother said about the first one. lol

I'd tried to keep it hid from her for awhile to just avoid the discussion as long as possible or until it had at least healed. So I wore hoodies and various long sleeves when I went to have dinner with her. After a few weeks, maybe a couple months, I was in the recliner directly in front of her just beside the viewing line to the tv. My arm itched and without thinking I pulled the sleeve down and scratched it while continued eating watching wheel of fortune with her. Well I suddenly heard. "WHAT IS THAT?" And I told her. Then almost a month went by of her saying nothing about it. Then suddenly in the exact same scenario as before I'm eating and I hear a randomly exclaimed "YOU KNOW THAT WILL NEVER WASH OFF!"

Lol Makes me wonder how many times she screamed that or similar thoughts inside her head while looking at my arm before that one burst out.

Thanks, yea I think so too and very happy with him.
The other is actually my first. Done by a friend in his living room for $50 is an ambigram. Says Philosophy or Art&Science depending on which direction you read it.

So any suggestions on my Black Costume Spiderman section?
I'm thinking maybe Spawn after that. That way my favorites form 3 different companies.

Btw, Surprised no one mentioned Stan Lee's autograph. It was signed in person by Stan himself at Wizard World Nashville last year. Plan on going again next month.

*Nevermind I realize now you can't really see Stan Lee's autograph at all and very difficult to make out the ambigram too. My bad! I can post pics of those too if anyone wants.*

I really just wanted links and suggestions on art for my next section.

Phase 2
Webbing isn't as wide as I wanted yet but he's going to fix that and add to the details and definition on the costume and muscles when I go back. Was pressed for time because my girlfriend wanted to come with and I had to get her back in time for work.
