Also on sale now, fan favorite creators Chris Yost and Paco Medina bring you the Superior Spider-Man on a mission that brings his past, present and future colliding together in the must read AVENGING SPIDER-MAN #15.1!

“This is the single most seismic shift in Spider-Man’s history--and it’s not something that will disappear any time soon,” said Axel Alonso, Editor in Chief, Marvel Entertainment. “When Spider-Man editor Steve Wacker and writer Dan Slott came to us with this story, it was clear that this was a long term plan crafted with the utmost love and respect for the character. This is the kind of story that will have fans up in arms--but also coming back to the comic stores to check out each new exciting issue.”
On January 9, Marvel launches SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN #1, an all-new ongoing series from Slott and superstar artist Ryan Stegman (FANTASTIC FOUR, SCARLET SPIDER)! Shipping twice-monthly, SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN launches a new chapter in the Marvel mythos, as Doctor Octopus strikes out on his own to be the greatest Spider-Man this world has ever known. But can he keep up the ruse? Will Spidey’s closest allies discover the fate of Peter Parker? And can this Spider-Man truly be a hero?
“The magic formula Stan Lee, Steve Ditko, and John Romita, Sr. created, which set Spider-Man apart from all the other heroes, was ‘Super Hero Meets Soap Opera.’ But every now and then, you hit a milestone like Spidey's 700th issue, his 50th anniversary, or a line-wide relaunch like Marvel NOW! And when ALL three of those things align so perfectly, you HAVE to go BIG!” said Slott. “Instead of just Soap Opera you go for HIGH OPERA! Spider-Man's greatest villain! His biggest threat! Impossible odds! Life or death! And that's AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #700."
Introduced in 1962 as part of AMAZING FANTASY #15, Peter Parker and his alter-ego Spider-Man immediately captivated readers, quickly leading to the debut of the AMAZING SPIDER-MAN comic series. Since then, Spider-Man has appeared in multiple television series, movies and video games, developing into one of the most beloved and recognized super heroes in the world. The events of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #700 not only bring this landmark series to a conclusion, but also mark the end of Peter Parker’s tenure as the iconic Marvel super hero.
Don’t miss out on the story that’s taken the world by storm--AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #700 and AVENGING SPIDER-MAN #15.1. are on-sale now at your local comic shop, the Marvel Comics app and Marvel Digital Comics Shop! There’s a new Spider-Man in town and he makes his friendly neighborhood debut today!
