Ah, May! The most wonderful month for Comic Books Solicitations. Take time this  year to celebrate Mother’s day, I know I will; especially since she’s responsible for the second most important May holiday – my birthday! What could possibly top such a joyous and festive date? Why, the start of “Secret Wars” – of course! Marvel’s newest summer bookbuster event arrives in the 616 to change things forever, but you’ll only find mention of it in Spider-Verse #1‘s solicitation. Take a journey with us, three months into the future, where most of the Spider-Family is still unaware of the troublesome June to come…
