I am very, very familiar with the concepts of both "homaging" (making a very obvious art reference to an earlier famous work, e.g., Superman lifting the car on Action Comics 1 ) and "swiping" (anything drawn by Greg Land, for example). There's a host of ambiguity in the middle--sometimes two images just happen to look similar, but after 80 years of the comics industry, some stuff is just going to be duplicative. Again, I'd need to see a comparative image of Romita's that Manara's famous cover looks very obviously identical to. As somebody once said about Captain America swipes--look, there's only so many ways to draw a guy holding a shield." I'd need to see firmer evidence that Manara explicitly copied Romita's work. There's been thousands of Spider-Man comics over 60-70 years and "Spidey crouching" is not an uncommon shot.

I kind of like it? I do think the eyes should just be flattened out, this is a bit too much. All in all though - mayyyybe if there's some money left in the Lego-budget at the end of the year*? Beta Ray Bill | Fandral | Heimdall | Hogun | Lady Sif | Odin | Thor Girl | Thunderstrike | Volstagg But there are a few ways this makes more sense, especially given the context of LEGO Spider-Man and his world. The fact that someone like LEGO Spider-Man would throw himself into dour multiversal work despite his world being comparatively bright and cheery speaks to his willingness to fight the good fight alongside Miguel. It's possible this LEGO world has a subtle connection to The LEGO Movie, in which case Spider-Man might be -- like the other heroes of that world, including LEGO Batman -- a Master Builder. That kind of responsibility and ingenuity would likely be endearing to Miguel, prompting his belief that LEGO Spider-Man is a hero worth commending. The moment also takes on a meta-level of appreciation considering the 14-year-old who constructed the scene for the film, with the movie openly complimenting the LEGO Spider-Man for his good work.

If your brain is going to the Manara cover, well, okay, but it's not nearly at the same angle, let alone sex, as that cover was. Like I said, this is closer to any number of John Romita Sr. covers that he made over the years. "
It's Romita Sr's signature pose for Spidey. You know the pose. It's a classic. And technically, Ditko had something similar but not the iconic cover version that Romita Sr. did.
