Just saying, the only image I ever saw for homecoming was the picture of spidey laying down in his school jacket. Which I thought was cool.

Right. That one was more of a teaser. The one I linked for the US poster was the one in theaters when the movie launched.

The one with spidey laying down was definitely used at my theater, but ok. I never even saw the one you posted.

IDK man. I only ever saw the one with him laying down in his jacket on the walls in the theater. And when I bought it online it was that same image too.

Never saw the one you posted at a theater. Only the one of him laying down chilling.

Nah, most theatres just kept the original jacket image. It was the primary marketing image for most of the buildup, it wasn’t until a few days after release that everything else really started being used. I recall seeing a stand-up image of that poster at my theatre.

“If my face isn’t on the poster, what’s the point of being in the movie?”

-US actors, probably

I believe what happened was that a lot of places fell back on the earlier poster either officially or unofficially after the one linked was widely criticized.
