It seems everybody’s favourite fuzzy elf mutant, Kurt Wagner a.ok.a. Nightcrawler, will probably be embracing a new position as the Uncanny Spider-Man in a titular 5-issue limited series from author Si Spurrier and artist Lee Garbett.
Between his work on Legion of X and Nightcrawlers, Spurrier isn’t any stranger to the character. The first problem incorporates a cowl drawn by Tony Daniels. Here’s how Marvel describes the series:
UNCANNY SPIDER-MAN will probably be a five-issue limited series written by mutant mastermind Si Spurrier, persevering with his thought-provoking work in the Krakoan period after Legion of X and Nightcrawlers, and drawn by Lee Garbett, recognized for his breathtaking artwork on Death of Doctor Strange. The coronary heart of the X-Men, Kurt has at all times shined as one among the most heroic and daring mutants in the franchise. Now, as the darkness of FALL OF X overwhelms his fellow mutants, Nightcrawler will embrace a new position as a basic New York City-bamfing hero!
Escaping the turmoil of FALL OF X in a flash of smoke and brimstone, it’s time for Nightcrawler to play the swashbuckling, devil-may-care hero he was at all times destined to be! Meeting a possible new lover, battling a few of the most iconic members of Spidey’s rogues gallery, and saving civilians, mutant and human alike—Kurt is having the time of his life! But it’s not all enjoyable and video games… Nightcrawler can even be a lone soldier on the frontlines of mutantkind’s upcoming warfare with ORCHIS. Throughout the saga, he’ll additionally confront a long-simmering thriller surrounding his mom, Mystique, as Spurrier’s daring transformation of the character approaches a startling climax!
Spurrier teased what’s to come back for the mutant’s new position:
“What we’ve bought here’s a spectacular new starting – which, sure, is code for ‘perfect jumping-on point’ – which leans onerous into heroic, joyful, street-level motion. Writing Kurt has at all times been an train in coronary heart. He was the first to really feel the cracks in Krakoa… and the first to try to do one thing about it. Unfailingly loyal to his folks, his pals and his duties, he’s gone by way of loads. What’s been lacking for him is the pleasure. The freedom. The thrill. And that’s the place we discover him now. In a restyled Spidey Suit, BAMFing throughout New York and rubbing shoulders (and butting heads) with the greatest heroes and villains of the Manhattan milieu…however after all it’s not fairly that straightforward. Is Nightcrawler actually doing this for the thrill? Or is he hiding? Is it simpler to placed on a masks and punch some villains in the nostril than it’s to stare trauma in the eye…?
“For me this series is a dream come true. A chance to write what my various briefs have never before allowed: pure, joyful, bold, fun superheroic action. And thanks to Lee, it looks astonishing.”
