Set during one of the most significant conflicts in the Marvel universe, the limited series shines a light on an untold adventure.

Discussing the project, Tom DeFalco shared, “Pat Olliffe and I were faced with an exhilarating creative challenge. We were entrusted with the task of crafting a sequel or new tale that pays homage to a timeless Marvel story that first graced the pages four decades ago. This narrative had far-reaching consequences that are still reverberating across the Marvel universe today. With a deep affinity for a certain web-slinging hero and his world, we also felt compelled to craft a story that delved into the core of his being, defining his distinct position in the Marvel Universe. This includes exploring his intricate relationship with his enigmatic black costume.” The result of their collaboration with editors Mark Basso and Drew Baumgartner is a story that promises to resonate with contemporary readers while leaving a lasting creative impact that will endure for generations to come.
