This Fall Amazing Spider-Man will play host to one of the biggest stories ever with the dimension hopping “Spider-Verse” by Dan Slott.  The series promises to feature almost every single Spider-Man that has ever existed and even some brand new ones.  We’ve already got news that we’ll be seeing the “return” of Superior Spider-Man this Summer as a bridge into the event but now Spider-Man group editor Nick Lowe revealed to CBR a new series that will explore several other Spider-Man characters in the lead-up to “Spider-Verse.”  That series is called “Edge of Spider-Verse” and will begin in September and conclude in October.  Here are the announced books:

Group edito Nick Lowe, in a fantastic interview for CBR, discussed his intentions for the series, saying that one of his biggest goals was to use the series to attract new and interesting voices to the Spider-Man universe to create and/or adapt characters for fresh new stories.  The exciting announcements from the above solicits include that David Hine and Fabrice Sapolsky are returning to Spider-Man Noir, to be drawn by the excellent Richard Isanove of Wolverine: Origin and Savage WolverineWolverine and the X-Men writer and Southern Bastards artist Jason Latour is writing a story about Gwen Stacy getting Spider-Powers and how her father, Captain Stacy, helps her define her moral code; Gerard Way, lead singer for My Chemical Romance, and Umbrella Academy writer is making his Marvel debut; and Infinity artist Dustin Weaver will be inventing and drawing a new Spider-Man character in his Marvel writing debut!

The series certainly sound exciting and should pave way for the biggest story of them all… “Spider-Verse.”
