Marvel Comics has announced the return of Spider-Man: Edge of Spider-Verse, and it’s said that the series is “building to the biggest Spider-Verse epic in Marvel Comics history.”
Launching in February, the series will take readers to the bleeding edge of the Spider-Verse once more, reacquainting us with old favourites and introducing fans to some of the most important web-slinging heroes we haven’t met yet.
Previous instalments of Edge of Spider-Verse saw all-star creators introduce the world to the likes of Spider-Gwen, Spider-Rex, and more. It also revealed the secrets behind Spider-Boy’s origins and laid the groundwork for new eras of iconic wall-crawling Variants like Spider-Man India and Araña.
It’s said that we won’t believe how the Web of Life and Destiny impacts Spider-Man storytelling this time, while a press release promises that the possibilities of the Spider-Verse are going to be unleashed in full.
Edge of Spider-Verse #1 is going to introduce an X-Men-inspired Spider-Man called Weapon VIII and promises to include the long-awaited return of the tech-savvy Spdier-Byte. Here’s what to expect from the issue:
• We all know who Weapon X is, but who is Weapon VIII?! Find out in a story from writing duo Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing and artist Travel Foreman! In this universe, when Weapon X escapes from his facility, they call on their greatest previous success to get him back…
• You may not have realized that the digital avatar Spider-Character who made her big screen debut in Across the Spider-Verse came from the comics first! She’s back in comics now and you don’t want to miss her in an all-new adventure by writer Nilah Magruder and artist Eric Gapstur.
• Plus the start of a saga that sets up the next evolution of Spider-Versal stories!
We’re sure there’s going to be at least one breakout character in the series who eventually swings their way to our screens (just look at what a huge impact Spider-Gwen has had in Sony’s animated Spider-Man franchise).
You can take a first look at Weapon VIII on the cover below.
