Superior Spider-Man #28 Spoilers: New Heroes Emerge To Take On Goblin Nation? How Does Peter Parker Hide His Amazing Journey? (All-New Marvel Now In Review)

News, Spoilers

Goblin Nation began last month in Superior Spider-Man #27 with the reveal the Green Goblin knows what Doctor Octopus did to Peter Parker and he decimates Ock’s “Spider-Island” to end the issue. This takes place as part of the main Goblin Nation plot for the series and the free preview to Superior Spider-Man #28 shows Doctor-Octopus-as-Spider-Man reeling, significantly.

The Peter Parker “return” subplot in this series stems from the spoilers to Superior Spider-Man #25 and Superior Spider-Man #26. They lead to a new Amazing Spider-Man series with Peter Parker back in control after being “away” for over a year due to Doc Ock’s machinations.

SPOILERS for Superior Spider-Man #28 follow.

The Green Goblin sends the Goblins to wreak havoc on New York City after he decimates the Spider Island lair of the Superior Spider-Man.

New “heroes” emerge to take on the Green Goblin Nation threat:

  • Mayor J. Jonah Jameson’s repurposed Spider-Slayers.
  • Mary Jane Watson as… Spider-Woman?
  • Carlie Cooper and her Goblin cry for help!

So, do all the Goblins know Doctor Octopus’ secret the way he thinks they do?

Superior Spider-Man #28 also continues Peter Parker’s essence’s journey back to Amazing Spider-Man. The issue reveals how he is hiding in Doc Ock’s mind (in Peter Parker’s body).
