What makes you think the OP was referring to this picture alone and not the general way Marvel has been pushing the character? That being said, it's pretty obvious why they show him without the mask, and it's probably not for any of the reasons you mentioned.

Also I'm not sure where you heard Ultimate Peter Parker was not well-liked. If anything, he was more well-liked than the 616 version at the time he was killed off.

i haven't seen all the pictures and i felt that if this is the one they chose for the secret, it's fairly representative

they're advertising that he's a new character taking up an old mantle, they'd be showing his face no matter what.

They didn't have to do it with Ben Reilly or Dick Grayson, did they? With the former, all that was needed was a different costume.

One would have to be incredibly naive in this day and age to think that the new Spider-Man being black has nothing to do with the marketing. Especially after the nationwide buzz prior to Mile's debut.

Now I agree that a black Spidey IS a big deal--but I think the character works better when you're not bringing attention to that.
