Spider-Man fans seriously divided over new series

Spider-Man fans seriously divided over new series

Other iterations have been pushed to one side

Earlier this year, Marvel Comics announced a new Spider-Girl and, of course, the internet was all very normal about it.

No. Who am I kidding? Everybody got up in arms.

The announcement was deemed to be “royalty desperate” by naysayers.

The problem isn’t, thankfully, that we’re dealing with a Spider-Girl as opposed to a Spider-Man - and that brings me great joy to say.

It’s that fans were disappointed that Marvel had opted to create this new Spider-Girl as opposed to revisiting Mayday.

If you’re not familiar with Mayday, she’s taken from a storyline where Peter and Mary Jane’s daughter, May, grows up to become Spider-Girl.

Well, following that initial announcement of a new Spider-Girl, the character is now finally set to debut.

ICYMI: The MCU’s Thunderbolts* has released its first trailer. Take a look at the film in action below.

Spider-Girl is set to appear in the upcoming Spider-Boy #12, written by Dan Slott with art by Paco Medina.

A preview of the issue was provided to ComicBook, confirming that this new Spider-Girl will officially debut within it.

The problem is that we still don’t know much about the character, including her real identity.

In the introductory scene, Daredevil and Spider-Boy are under attack from Bullseye and a mystery assailant throwing spider-tracers.

This individual is then revealed to be Spider-Girl suggesting the character could, rather unexpectedly, be an antagonist.

Designer and artist Michael Cho was responsible for bringing the character to life, and I’m sure we’re going to see plenty more of her in the coming months.

The issue will go on sale on 12 October, so it shouldn’t be long before it lands in our hands.

If you want to catch up on some additional Marvel Comics antics, a new Guardians of the Galaxy team line-up has just been confirmed.

It’ll be interesting to see whether the MCU takes inspiration given that Gunn’s original film trilogy has drawn to a close, ushering in a new era for the cosmic team.
