Carnage U.S.A. promo.
Neat. Weird.
Carnage in Carnage U.S.A.:
From the press release: It’ a whole new meaning for “red state” as Carnage’s maniacal reign of terror continues, courtesy of the critically acclaimed creative team of Zeb Wells and Clayton Crain, in Carnage U.S.A. #1 (of 5)!
With Carnage leaving a wake of bloodshed and lunacy throughout the nation, Spider-Man and the Avengers must go on a brutal hunt to capture Cletus Kasaday before the American heartland falls under his mass-murdering spell.
Buckle in and prepare for a violence packed adventure as Carnage, joined by a symbiote army, continues his vengeance fueled comeback. Destined to be the most mind-blowing cross country tour fans have ever taken, Carnage U.S.A. wants YOU this December!
More Inconsequential Meandering
The recent FF stories in the pages of Amazing Spider-Man were… eh… alright. But I don’t buy the book to look at Reed Richards’s ugly mug.
Now comes news (last Friday) that issue #661 is going to have Spidey teaching a bunch of kids I don’t care about!? Meh:
From the press release: Marvel is pleased to present your first look at Amazing Spider-Man #661, from fan favorite creators Christos Gage and Reilly Brown.
Class is in session as Spider-Man heads to Avengers Academy to take the next generation of Earth’s Mightiest out for an exercise that’ll quickly go from pass/fail to live/die when the Psycho-Man crashes the lecture.
And that’s not all because when Giant Man finds himself face to face with the giant Monsteroso, the FF makes a mighty Marvel guest appearance. This May, don’t miss all the non-stop action, and the “Day in the Life of Spider-Man” backup story by Paul Benjamin and Javier Pulido, only in the extra-sized Amazing Spider-Man #661.
Cover by Ed McGuinness.
Well, that didn’t take long…
So, after the “Death of Spider-Man” story in Marvel’s Ultimate Spider-Man, there’s going to be another Spider-Man?
That didn’t take long.
Marvel revealed their new Ultimate Spider-Man today:
Peter Parker will no longer be Spider-Man following the “Death of Spider-Man” story:
From the press release: Marvel has announced that after the shocking events of “Death of Spider-Man,” the sold out storyline currently running through Ultimate Comics Spider-Man and Ultimate Comics Avengers Vs Ultimates, there will be a new Spider-Man and a new character under the mask. Something’s happened to Peter Parker and here comes an all-new Spider-Man… in an all-new costume!
“We called this story ‘Death of Spider-Man for a reason,’” said Axel Alonso, Marvel Editor In Chief. “This is a huge story that’ll have fans around the world talking for a long time as we set the stage for the debut of our new Spider-Man.”
The Ultimate Universe is irrevocably changed with the conclusion to “Death of Spider-Man” in June’s polybagged Ultimate Spider-Man #160.
