Fan favorite Marvel hero End of the Spider-Verse event.
Edge of Spider-Verse is an miniseries that will give fans a broader look into the multiple realities that Spider-heroes inhabit. According to Marvel in a press release, it will be a "five-issue limited series that introduces new Spider-heroes and redefines fan-favorites such as Araña, Spider-Man Noir, Spider-Gwen, and Spider-Man: India." Each issue in the series will include three different stories featuring different Spider-Heroes written by various creative teams, as well as incorporating an overarching story by Marvel alum Dan Slott. The first issue is already kicking things off strong as Marvel hints that the first story will focus on a version of Spider-Man 65 million years in the making.
As confirmed in Spider-Man as having organic source rather than artificial, though it is seen swinging through what appears to be the modern day, hinting it could exist in a society where advanced technology is possible. The issue will come from Slott, Pacheco, Perez, Alex Segura, Dustin Weaver, Martin Coccolo, Caio Majado, and Josemaria Casanovas.
Spider-Rex's first adventure in the Marvel universe will be helmed by the Marvel's recently introduced Spider-Hulk. Interestingly, Spider-Heroes tend to be connected to the supernatural as 'Spider Totems,' so it will be interesting to see how a genuine animal (rather than a cartoon like Spider-Ham) interacts with this concept. Peter Parker has long struggled with the man/spider dichotomy of his powers, but will Spider-Rex have the same competing impulses, or just be the ultimate predator?
Marvel promises that Dan Slott's overarching story will do more than just connect the stories of characters like Spider-Rex, but will also "lay the groundwork for the epic conclusion of the Spider-Verse later this year," so fans will want to make sure they don't miss an issue!
