Marvel’s got a lot going on these days and one of the things coming up next month is the kickoff of the big Spider-Man event of 2016 that “promises to shake Peter Parker’s life to it’s very core!” That’s coming in the form of The Clone Conspiracy, which now has its first issue being previewed with the main final cover, some great variants, and a look at some interior pages. The book is coming from writer Dan Slott with artist Jim Cheung and Ron Frenz on October 12th, 2016.
Plot concept: That’s right True Believer – the Jackal is back and where he goes, the clones are sure to follow! He’s offered some of Spider-Man’s greatest villains a chance to be reunited with their lost loved ones in exchange for loyalty. Now, outmatched and outgunned, Spider-Man must take on the Rhino, the Lizard, Electro and even the returning Doctor Octopus! But they’re not the only ones returning from the grave! Who from Spider-Man’s past is also returning? Can the Amazing Spider-Man stand against a new and improved Jackal and a who’s who of his greatest villains?
