Just Blame Spider-Man?

I was checking out the Marvel Ship List earlier to see what came out this week and I glanced at Amazing Spider-Man #552. Much to my despair, I saw that Phil Jimenez (New X-Men) would be drawing the next arc. I was really quite upset, as I loathe the art in New X-Men. Not to mention, I haven’t been particularly pleased with Brand New Day, and I all out HATED One More Day. I did a quick search after that though, trying to see if I could find any interior artwork that would arrest my fear and disgust and luckily I was directed here.

Marvel posted some news a few weeks back about issue #552, and put up this interior artwork:

I must say, my fears were for naught, as this artwork looks pretty friggin’ awesome. I don’t really like that each artists interpretation of the character is different though, some arc’s spidey is lean, with very little musculature, here he is pretty well built. I guess thats what you have to deal with when you’ve got a new artist every month or so.
