Spider-Island Affects Venom, Spider-Girl and Cloak & Dagger

Here are several press releases Marvel has sent me promoting Spider-Island.

SPIDER-ISLAND Infects VENOM

When Spider-Island overruns New York, America only has one man to put an end to its madness – Venom! This August, red hot writer Rick Remender and artist Tom Fowler drop Flash Thompson right into a city full of Spider-powered residents in Venom #6! With this crisis ripping through the Big Apple, Venom must keep his emotions in check to ensure the city remains safe!

“Amazing Spider-Man writer Dan Slott and editor Stephen Wacker went to great lengths to ensure that Venom had a few very important roles in Spider-Island,” said Remender. “I can’t give away who we’ll be seeing Venom go up against, but they are all huge characters and fights that Spider-fans have been itching to see. Tom Fowler’s pages so far are jaw-dropping and there are some legendary bouts >cough< Anti-Venom >cough< awaiting readers.”

With a whole of city of Spider-Men & Women to fight through, can Flash maintain control of a suit that wants nothing less than to put an end to any and all wall-crawlers? Or will the kill switch finally be thrown on America’s ultimate man in black? Find out when Venom takes Manhattan this August, only in Venom #6!

That’s right True Believer, Cloak and Dagger are back and with Spider-Man’s world turned upside down he’ll need help from all corners of the Marvel Universe. Luckily, with roughly 1.5 million residents running rampant throughout the city that never sleeps, Cloak and Dagger jump back into action and defend a legion of spider-powered New Yorkers from turning on themselves and each other!

“Nick and Emma are two of the most explosive new talents in comics and they’re matched perfectly on with Cloak and Dagger…two of Marvel’s most exciting characters,” said Marvel Senior Editor Steve Wacker. “ This is the definitely the book to watch coming out of Spider-Island.”

And Spider-Girl is coming back for a mini-series

SPIDER-ISLAND Goes Up Against The AMAZING SPIDER-GIRL

 

The summer of Spider-Island is coming, but it will be anything but a vacation for the Amazing Spider-Girl! This August, young Anya Corazon will have to go it alone against her deadliest enemies in Spider-Island: The Amazing Spider-Island #1 (of 3), from writer Paul Tobin and artist Pepe Larraz! Spider-Girl’s got a whole new set of powers – but will they do her any good now that the Society of Wasps has decided to use the cover of Spider-Island to eradicate all arachnids?

 

“It’s a VERY different Spider-Girl that readers will encounter in the pages of Spider-Island: The Amazing Spider-Girl, as the strange outbreak of spider-powers infects her as well… but in very surprising ways,” said writer Paul Tobin. “And when the Society of the Wasp declares full scale war on the new ‘army’ of the spider-powered, Spider-Girl surprisingly finds herself aligned with the Kingpin and Hobgoblin. Even more surprisingly she finds that, maybe…that’s where she most belongs.”

 

If she wants make it out alive, she’ll have to make peace with her most unlikely allies yet! Discover why this August, only in Spider-Island: The Amazing Spider-Girl #1 (of 3)!
