Marvel is gearing up for a new series that hits in just under a month with the debut of Ben Reilly: The Scarlett Spider. It’s a book that has a good pedigree behind it with New York Times Bestselling creators Peter David (Amazing Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2099) and Mark Bagley (Ultimate Spider-Man, All-New X-Men) working on it. Ahead of its debut, Marvel has now brought out the finalized cover and a look at some preview pages. There are also some sweet variant covers being put into the mix as well!
Plot concept: In the aftermath of The Clone Conspiracy, Ben Reilly has returned with a new lease on life. Not as Peter Parker’s clone – but as his own man. Will suiting up once more as the Scarlet Spider be enough to outrun his personal demons? All while being able to stay one step ahead of the man hunting him – Kaine Parker – the former Scarlet Spider?! More importantly, can you ever truly outrun your past? Find out as the iconic fan-favorite character returns to the fore once again in BEN REILLY: THE SCARLET SPIDER #1 – swinging into comic shops on April 26th!
