The first Spider-man 3 trailer was released this weekend, very cool. It features Spider-man in the black outfit. I wonder how they will play out the suit story in the movie. In the comic books, he gets it during Secret Wars, when he is taken across the universe to participate in a battle between Earth's greatest heroes and villains. Peter's blue-and-red costume is destroyed fighting. He finds a machine on the strange planet that seems to fashion a new black costume to replace his tattered one. The costume responds to Peter's thoughts, maintains an unlimited supply of web-fluid, and can change appearance at will. However, when Peter returns to Earth he discovers that the costume is actually an alien symbiote bent on permanently bonding with its host. Peter eventually rejects and defeats the symbiote, but it finds a new host in Eddie Brock, a symbiotic relationship that creates the villain known as Venom.
