Spider-Man Declares War
The upcoming Gang War event will span multiple Marvel series as Spider-Man goes on his mission to eliminate criminals in New York City in under 48 hours. After the ‘Gang War: First Strike’ prelude event this November, ‘Gang War’ kicks off with a supersized issue of Amazing Spider-Man #39 and continues in Daredevil: Gang War #1 where Spidey recruits former assassin turned Daredevil, Elektra Natchios, to help out. Luke Cage’s entry in the event finds characters Cloak and Dagger, Jessica Jones and Danny Rand as guest stars.

It’s no surprise that Miles Morales teams up with Spider-Man during the event, but as the conflict worsens, fans will have to find out whether Shang Chi is a friend or foe to Peter’s cause in Deadly Hands of Kung Fu: Gang War #1. Lastly, Spider-Woman will join the fray on Dec. 27, ahead of January’s ‘Gang War’ releases. The crossover event is set to conclude in March with Daredevil: Gang War #4.
‘Gang War’ starts with Amazing Spider-Man #39 on Dec. 6 from Marvel Comics.
