Marvel has announced that they will be going back into the Spider-Verse with a new Miles Morales-focused mini-series, simply titled “Spider-Verse.” “Miles Morales finally feels like he gets this Spider-Man stuff… and then falls through a portal! But isn’t the Web of Life & Destiny destroyed?” says Marvel in its description of the series. “Maybe not, True Believer. But who spun this new web? Regardless, Miles finds himself at the center of a multiversal adventure that will feature a who’s who of creators and characters as the series spins forward!”
Coming on the heels of last year’s Academy Award-winning animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (itself based on the original ‘Spider-Verse’ crossover event in 2014 from writer Dan Slott and pencilers Olivier Coipel and Giuseppe Camuncoli), the six-issue series will be written by current “Black Cat” scribe Jed Mackay, and feature interiors from a team of artists including Juan Frigeri, Arthur Adams, Stuart Immonen (who will be doing his first Marvel work since “Amazing Spider-Man” #800), and Stacey Lee. Into the Spider-Verse character designer Wendell Dalit will be the cover artist for the series as well. Every issue of “Spider-Verse” will additionally feature #Spiderpersonas drawn by comic fans and creators alike.
Marvel has given no timetable as to when the first issue of “Spider-Verse” will be released. In the meantime, you can check out any prior announcements from Marvel at San Diego Comic-Con you may have missed earlier today here.
