Amazing Spider-Man #1000 is a landmark issue of Marvel’s The Amazing Spider-Man comic book series, scheduled for release on the 16th of September. Around 104 pages priced at $9.99, 400,000 orders would still add up to four million dollars worth spent on the comic, which is still pretty good…
The main story, Ravaged, is written by current series writer Joe Kelly with art by Pepe Larraz. It serves as both a culmination of their run so far and a major turning point that launches the next phase. Spider-Man confronts his greatest fear and a new villain described as one of his most frightening in decades: Ravage. This personal battle is said to force Peter Parker to question his legacy and will shape the series going forward. It has been suggested that this is the past version of the future Marvel 20909 character Racage, co-created by Stan Lee. The comic will also have a cover using previously unpublished Spider-Man art by Steve Ditko, and his family were at the Marvel’s Next Big Thing panel in the audience.
The issue also features a lineup of special anniversary backup stories by notable creators, Now I Can Rest by Dan Slott and Marcos Martin — A heartbreaking look at the night of Uncle Ben’s death, The Gesture by Brian Michael Bendis and Stuart Immonen — A team-up between Spider-Man and the Avengers against some of his greatest foes., Tears of the Spider-Queen“by Frank Miller and Peach Momoko (their first collaboration) , Spider-Man vs. the Hand ninjas. Still Standing by Noah Hawley (his Marvel Comics debut; known for Fargo, Legion, Alien: Earth) and Patrick Gleason, An older Peter Parker reflects on his life and prepares for one final adventure., Requiem for a Goblin by J.M. DeMatteis and Humberto Ramos, revisiting the aftermath of Harry Osborn‘s death. And Of Webs and Six-Guns by Larry Lieber and Giuseppe Camuncoli, a Western-style adventure for Spidey.
