The Press Release:
Just now at the Marvel Comics: Spider-Man and his Venomous Friends Panel at New York Comic Con, Executive Editor Nick Lowe and writer Joe Kelly debuted the all-new AMAZING SPIDER-MAN “8 DEATHS OF SPIDER-MAN” TRAILER, featuring never-before-seen artwork! Written by Joe Kelly and drawn by Ed McGuinness, the 10-part saga begins in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #61 on November 13.

Following Blood Hunt, the Marvel Universe has changed dramatically! Doctor Doom is Sorcerer Supreme, but he has no plans to spend his time like his predecessor… Each year, Doctor Strange would use every ounce of his power and experience to save the world from an evil god and his scions. This year, Doom is delegating this task to… SPIDER-MAN?! To accomplish his mission, the leader of Latveria has given Spider-Man a new, magic-powered suit and EIGHT EXTRA LIVES! True Believer, they won’t be enough… The new trailer spotlights the abilities of Spidey’s new suit and sheds light on the mysterious origin of this mighty mystical undertaking that will cause Spidey to die and be reborn again and again!

Check out the trailer and pick up AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #61 at your local comic shop on November 13! For more information, visit Marvel.com.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: While this storyline sounds quite interesting, I am not a regular reader of the “Amazing Spider-Man” which I am sure surprises some of you knowing how much I appreciate the character and have been following his adventures for many years. I’d probably be more interested in snagging this storyline as a single volume if they end up collecting it into one of those. What do you readers think about this one? I am still rather shocked in the fact that Doctor Doom is now the Sorcerer Supreme. I mean whoever saw that one coming? I know I didn’t but here we are. Also, if I can toss in a shameless plug, I am currently exploring the Halls of Javits at the very same New York Comic Con that this announcement comes from and while I didn’t see the panel, I am happy to share the updates as I see them in my email.
