Superior Spider-Man Annual #2 hits stands this week. It follows last week’s explosive spoilers from Superior Spider-Man #29 and is part of the All-New Marvel Now’s path to Peter Parker’s return and the launch of Amazing Spider-Man #1.
In a recent interview, writer Christos Gage noted that Superior Spider-Man Annual #2 was important to writer Dan Slott’s concluding Superior Spider-Man opus Goblin Nation.
- “And with the last [Superior Spider-Man] annual [#1], we told the readers it would matter to the ongoing series, and it has — both in terms of Aunt May’s relationship to “Peter Parker,” and in other ways you won’t even fully see until “Goblin Nation” kicks into gear. Let me assure everyone that this [Superior Spider-Man] Annual [#2] is tied into the main book as well. It’s a chapter of “Goblin Nation” — two, actually!”
Here’s the cover and solicit for Superior Spider-Man Annual #2. Will Peter Parker’s mindscape “ghost” turn up? How will this book impact Goblin Nation and Dan Slott’s journey to Amazing Spider-Man #1?
