Spidey mania continues as Spider-Man swings into his third solo ongoing series!

When MARVEL TEAM-UP came to an end, your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man grabbed yet more of the spotlight in WEB OF SPIDER-MAN! Whether in his sleek black suit or classic red-and-blues, Spidey is ready to face new foes — including Magma, the Vulturions, Chance, Future Max and the Smithville Thunderbolt — as well as classic sparring partners like the Kingpin, Doctor Octopus, the Vulture and even the Hulk! Peter Parker makes a jaunt over the Atlantic for some adventures in the UK — where he foils an assassination attempt on the prime minister! Then, back on this side of the Pond, he has to travel cross-country to retrieve a misplaced web-shooter! Plus: The all-time classic Spider-title crossover “Kraven’s Last Hunt”! And Peter gets consigned to a mental hospital’s Mad Dog Ward!

COLLECTING: Web of Spider-Man (1985) 1-34; Web of Spider-Man Annual (1985) 1-3; Amazing Spider-Man (1963) 268, 293-295; Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man (1976) 131-133
Writer and editor Louise Simonson launched Power Pack and Web of Spider-Man and wrote memorable runs on New Mutants and X-Factor — helping map out the “Mutant Massacre,” “Inferno” and “X-Tinction Agenda” crossovers. Her major editorial credits include Star Wars and Uncanny X-Men. At DC, she wrote multiple Superman titles and became one of the main creative forces behind the “Death of Superman” saga; her scripts also appeared in Detective Comics, New Titans and more. She returned to Marvel to write the Galactus the Devourer limited series and 1999-2000’s Warlock, starring characters from New Mutants.

From a start at short-lived Atlas/Seaboard, Danny Fingeroth moved to Marvel to edit multiple Spider-Man titles; and write for Avengers, Dazzler and What If? During the 1990s, he scripted all fifty issues of Darkhawk, as well as Spider-Man’s Deadly Foes and Lethal Foes miniseries. Leaving Marvel in 1995, he became Virtual Comics’ editor in chief, and then Visionary Media’s senior vice president for creative production; he has also taught comic-book writing courses at select universities. In the prose field, he has written several nonfiction books about the comic-book field, as well as children’s books on noted actors.

Peter David is one of the industry’s most prolific and versatile writers whose record-breaking stint on Incredible Hulk remains a fan-favorite to this day. His similarly long-running — and critically acclaimed — association with X-Factor began in the early 1990s and continued in 2005. His other Marvel work includes Captain Marvel, two lengthy stints on Spider-Man 2099, Ben Reilly: Scarlet Spider and the smash-hit Symbiote Spider-Man limited series with artist Greg Land. David is also a novelist and screenwriter. Among his credits are some forty Star Trek tie-ins; original novels such as Sir Apropos of Nothing, Howling Mad and Knight Life; movies Trancers 4 and Trancers 5; and episodes of Babylon 5 and Crusade. He also co-created the TV show Space Cases with actor-writer Bill Mumy.

“Do you print [them] too?” a young Stan Lee once supposedly asked Jim Mooney (1919-2008). Mooney’s career as penciler, inker, colorist and letterer dates back to the Golden Age — during which he drew stories featuring super heroes and funny animals alike. In the Silver Age, he inked John Buscema’s Thor and John Romita’s Amazing Spider-Man. At DC, Mooney penciled Batman, Superboy and World’s Finest, among others.

After a start as inker to his older brother John, Sal Buscema penciled Captain America, Defenders, Incredible Hulk and more. Famed for his ability to meet tight deadlines, he spread his talents across multiple genres. His 1970s work ranged from Ms. Marvel and Nova to Sub-Mariner and Spider-Woman’s first appearance in Marvel Spotlight. He was the uninterrupted artist on Spectacular Spider-Man for more than one hundred issues and penciled the web-slinger’s adventures in Marvel Team-Up, in which he and writer Bill Mantlo introduced Captain Jean DeWolff. After handling more team-ups in the Thing’s Marvel Two-in-One, he reunited with brother John on Steve Englehart’s Fantastic Four. He later provided inks for Tom DeFalco’s Spider-Girl titles and Thunderstrike miniseries.

Geoff Isherwood’s penciling work ranges from Daredevil and Doctor Strange to Silver Surfer and Conan the Barbarian. He has also been a book-cover designer and film storyboard artist.
