Marvel.com have given us our first look at 5 pages of Sinister War #1
Doctor Octopus is back… And the Sinister War has begun!
Ock’s got a new Sinister Six and if you think he’s thought big in the past, think again. What Doc Ock doesn’t know is that the Vulture has a sextet of his own: THE SAVAGE SIX! It’s an all-out war between two of the greatest villains in the Marvel Universe, and the only person they hate more than each other is Spider-Man!
Spidey’s in deep trouble with the toughest battle that he’s ever faced. And the epic begins on July 14 in SINISTER WAR #1!
Written by Nick Spencer with art by Mark Bagley and colors by Brian Reber, SINISTER WAR is guaranteed to shock readers everywhere.

I’m curious to see when Max Dillon/Electro actually does get resurrected, by whom and how Doctor Octopus recruits him for his new Sinister Six team. I’d also curious if “Sinister War” is how Spider-Man and the original Electro meet again, as I can’t really see them interacting in “The Chameleon Conspiracy” unless Spencer gives the two a fight before that storyline ends. Also, since we saw that Hydro-Man is Doc Ock’s final teammate, maybe Doctor Octopus tries to recruit Mysterio or is sent to get him by Kindred and Mysterio turns Doc Ock down. Also, seeing the panel with Mysterio that has Mephisto in the background, I’m getting serious Deadpool/Spider-Man deja vu here where “One More Day” was referenced there too, though I hope there’s an actual payoff from Marvel on that front.
