Superior Spider-Man #1 Pages Out & New Spidey To Last More Than A Year! Poor Peter Parker (Spoilers)

News

This news article includes information on Amazing Spider-Man #698 to #700 (ASM #700 reviewed here) and Superior Spider-Man #1. If you are not familiar with what has been transpiring in Amazing Spider-Man and the shift to Superior Spider-Man, and do not want to be spoiled, read no further. :)

Following the revelations of Amazing Spider-Man #700, Marvel has released pages for its successor series Super Spider-Man #1 also by writer Dan Slott.

Superior Spider-Man #1 ships January 9, 2013.

In addition editor Stephen Wacker had this to say to USA Today:

    “It’s also what the good part of our first year of Superior is about: Doc behaving in a manner he’s not accustomed to. We see a more sympathetic side of Doctor Octopus. We couldn’t have a Spider-Man who was running around murdering people. And I have no interest in seeing that sort of character win.”

So Doc Ock Spidey is here to stay for at least one year.

Well that coincides quite nicely with the next installment of the Amazing Spider-Man movie franchise set to hit the silver screem in 2014. So, Peter Parker is on vacation, in the head of Doc Ock who is in the head of Peter Parker??? ;) – until 2014 in the Marvel Now comics?

Thanks for reading. All feedback welcome. :)
