A Gang War rages as Zeb Wells' high-octane run concludes!
Spider-Man is grief-stricken after a shocking death — but there’s no shortage of super villains lining up to put him in the grave, too! First up: a revitalized and upgraded Doctor Octopus! Then wedding bells are ringing, and Peter Parker must make it to the church on time — because he’s the best man! But the father of the bride is the whispering menace Tombstone! And he’s right at the heart of the action when the ticking time-bomb that is NYC’s super-crime landscape finally explodes! As the Big Apple becomes an open battlefield, the wall-crawler will need an amazing team on his side — with some surprising allies among them! Chasm returns, vampires run rampant and the Green Goblin is back to remind Spider-Man why he’s the deadliest foe of all! Or will Tombstone lay claim to that title in the brutal showdown to end all-showdowns?

A writer for the Emmy Award-winning animated series Robot Chicken and co-creator of the stop-motion SuperMansion, Zeb Wells began making a name for himself at Marvel with his irreverent New Warriors limited series, which provided an inspiration for key story threads that would later appear in Civil War; he also wrote the Civil War: Young Avengers & Runaways tie-in. His collaboration with the late Seth Fisher on Fantastic Four/Iron Man: Big in Japan produced one of the 21st century’s most charming comics. Wells’ other credits include Daredevil: Battlin’ Jack Murdock, Venom: Dark Origin, Dark Reign: Elektra and Spider-Man/Doctor Octopus: Year One. He also contributed to the thrice-monthly “Brand New Day” era of Amazing Spider-Man, most notably with the “Shed” storyline; wrote two Carnage limited series; and helped relaunch New Mutants. Wells has returned to the world of the wall-crawler, teaming with the legendary John Romita Jr. for a new volume of Amazing Spider-Man.
Artist Ed McGuinness came to prominence with his work on Harris Comics’ Vampirella and Marvel’s Deadpool. At Awesome Entertainment, McGuinness participated in a Fighting American revamp with writer Jeph Loeb, who would become a longtime collaborator. A short run on WildStorm’s Mr. Majestic led to a longer one on DC Comics’ Superman and the launch of Superman/Batman with Loeb. Back at Marvel, McGuinness reunited with Loeb for Fallen Son: The Death of Captain America, Hulk and Avengers: X-Sanction before launching Amazing X-Men with Jason Aaron. McGuinness has reteamed with his Deadpool scribe Joe Kelly for Spider-Man/Deadpool and with Aaron on a blockbuster relaunch of Avengers.
Patrick Gleason became a fan-favorite artist at DC Comics drawing the company’s most famous characters in series such as Green Lantern Corps, Batman and Robin, Superman and Aquaman. Following Marvel credits earlier in his career, his Amazing Spider-Man collaboration with Nick Spencer marked his true arrival at the House of Ideas. Gleason doubled down on his attachment to Spidey, joining the writing team for the “Beyond” era of Amazing Spider-Man.
