Official press launch:
Honoring the imaginative and prescient of the unique Ultimate Universe, Marvel’s new Ultimate Universe spinning out of Jonathan Hickman and Bryan Hitch’s current Ultimate Invasion sequence will captivate new and longtime readers with daring storytelling decisions and extraordinary recent takes on iconic characters! Hickman and Marco Checchetto cleared the path into this new period with their radical transformation of Peter Parker’s tremendous hero journey in ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN #1. Hitting stands on January 10, ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN #1 will spin a new net for Peter, presenting him as an older, wiser tremendous hero who balances his nice energy and accountability with being a loyal husband to Mary Jane and a loving father to their two children. It’s a new Spidey for a new era and the introduction of the Parker household guarantees to make it probably the most stunning Spidey story of the 21st century!
To have fun this new chapter of the Spider-Man mythos, legendary Spider-Man artist J. Scott Campbell has turned out a beautiful variant cover for problem one! Also obtainable as a virgin variant cover, the best-selling artist’s newest piece captures Peter and MJ’s romance in his iconic type!
“When we decided that we were going to do a book about an older Peter Parker becoming Spider-Man, we really wanted to lean into him starting his super hero life from a very different place than what’s traditionally expected,” Hickman defined. “Peter and MJ being married is one of many decisions we made that underline this being quite a ‘different’ kind of Spider-Man story.”
Look for Ultimate Spider-Man #1 to reach in shops and digitally on Wednesday, January tenth.
