We’ve already seen Spider-Man blame himself for killing Mary Jane, but how will the elderly web slinger do against Venom? It’s all in this week’s sneak peek from Marvel.
SPIDER-MAN: REIGN #4
Written by KAARE ANDREWS
Pencils & Cover by KAARE ANDREWS
Kaare Andrews’s chilling look into Spider-Man’s future has left fans amazed at the sight of a feeble and aged Peter Parker forced back into the mantle of Spider-Man and the conclusion in issue #4 is one that can’t be missed.
See why Venom has gone to such great lengths to lure Spider-man out. Can an elderly Spider-man defeat the vicious and sinister symbiote? Or will another hero have to step up to save the city?
Spider-Man: Reign #4 will go on-sale March 14, for $3.99.

I haven’t been picking this one up, as the first issue put me off with it’s slavish devotion to aping Dark Knight…
Stephen, have you been reading it?

Trust me, Issue 3 leaves that all behind and makes it into its own book.

Matt: I haven’t been reading it either for the reason you cite.
Looks to be a trippy series though, especially after the revelation that Peter Parkers radioactive sperm killed Mary Jane…

Okay, then. My friend Sarah is buying it, I’ll see about borrowing her copies and putting something together…
It’s well-liked enough to sell out all three issues so far, but will popularity equal a good review?
Stay tuned, same Spoiler time! Same Spoiler channel!

For Kaare Andrews art, definetly. He does sucha wide range of emotions: ‘Defiant-Angry!’ ‘Shocked-Bewildered!’ ‘Desperate-Relieved!’. And that Scorpion Costume is just, just totally, just totally wow.
