SDCC: Marvel Teases The Scarlet Spider

Media, News, Official Images

After the Spider-Man panel at the San Diego Comic Con, which featured multiple mentions from those present that a Ben Reilly return was not in the cards, Marvel released this image.

Spider-Island features the return of the Jackal, who truly is the father of the Clone Saga. Not to mention Ben.

Is there a chance that we could see a new Spider-clone? Or a new Scarlet Spider? Or is this just an extra nail being put in a long buried coffin for good measure?
