Looks like Marvel has something in store for comic book fans across the world and it involves our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man teaming-up with different Spider-Men in the new storyline called "Spider-Verse."
Yup, you heard it right folks, the Spider-Verse storyline will have Spider-Man team-up with every version of the web-slinger that has ever known from distant pasts, possible futures, and even other dimensions.
The Spider-Verse event will kick-off in November, in "Amazing Spider-Man #9," by writer Dan Slott and artist Olivier Coipe and according to Spider-Man editor, Nick Lowe in a press conference.
"The scope of this event is so big, the word 'epic' just doesn't do it justice. The story is just huge and heartbreaking and has necessitated spreadsheets to organize all the Spider-Men. Luckily we have a writer who has proven time and time again he can thread impossible story-needles [Slott] and the most versatile character artist in the business [Coipel]."
Marvel has released a graphic presentation created graphic artist Gabriele Dell'Otto that shows the whole cast of Spider-Verse. Yup, a whole bunch of Spideys that includes: Ultimate Spider-Man Miles Morales, Spider-Man 2099 Miguel O'Hara, Spider-Man Noir, Scarlet Spider Ben Reilly, Spider-Girl May Parker, even Spider-Ham and so much more.
A cover of the comic book is revealed along with a couple of comic strips which would make a good preview of what's in store for Spider-Verse storyline. It also involves Morlun, the guy who actually killed Spider-Man before in the "Spider-Man: The Other" story arc.
What role could Morlun possible play in the Spider-Verse storyline that it would take a legion of Spider-Men to stop him?
Perhaps the answers will be revealed soon as Spider-Verse storyline will launch on November this year.
