Wondering what awaits Spidey and his world
come 2012? Many announcements were made
in Spider-Man’s home city of New York this weekend that gave us a glimpse of
what’s to come. Here’s a handy list of the
major announcements:
New
York Destroyed
A lone teaser image shown at the New York
Comic Con revealed that things aren’t getting any easier for Spider-Man or his
city next year. ![]() |

Avenging Spider-Man goes Digital
Marvel will be giving out a free code to download a digital copy of Avenging Spider-Man #1 to everyone who buys the print copy. Depending on how many people actually download the book, Marvel might extend this offer to other titles. Pretty nifty if you want to reread your comics without taking them out of the bag, though I still prefer paper.
Don’t forget to check out our reviews for Avenging Spider-Man by our very own Combustible Pumpkins! The first issue is due out in November.
Symbiotes
Stephen Wacker promises that 2012 will be “huge for symbiotes” promising a big status quo change for Venom at the end of Spider Island as well as some crossover between Venom and Zeb Wells and Clayton Crain’s Carnage U.S.A.

Crossover
with Daredevil
Amazing Spider-Man will be sharing a story
with Mark Waid’s Daredevil in January. Written
by Waid and illustrated by Emma Rios and Kano, the story will run through
Amazing Spider-Man #677 and Daredevil #7 and feature the return of the Black
Cat. Given Waid’s Brand New Day work and
how awesome Daredevil has been as of late, I’m pretty excited about this.
And Finally...
Wacker stated that soon Amazing Spider-Man will have the tagline "World's Greatest Super Hero" similar to the Fantastic Four's "World's Greates Comics Magazine." About time.
