The Most Punk Rock Spider-Man Is Back In His Own Solo Series This April
Marvel has announced that the punk rock Spider-Man variant Spider-Punk is getting his own solo series. Creators Dan Slott and Olivier Coipel spikey headed Spider-Man is finally getting featured in his own solo series since his debut in 2015’s The Amazing Spider-Man #10.
The five-issue series titled Spider-Punk will bring writer Cody Ziglar and artist Justin Mason together to explore the Earth-138 variant and the universe he lives in. In Earth-138 Hobie Brown inherits the powers and persona of Spider-Man or in this case Spider-Punk and since, in one of his earliest battles, he takes down the President of the United States! Mind you, POTUS was in fact Norman Osborn, but still pretty punk rock if you ask me!
“This is very much him saying, ‘I’ve taken out the figurehead, but now I deal with the actual institution. How do I topple the actual institution?'” Ziglar says. “And for that, he has to put together a fun little team.”
This universe is full of interesting characters such as Captain Anarchy, and as Hobie puts together his “fun little team,” we know that one of those members will be a variant version of Ironheart/Riri Williams. Co-creator Coipel will have a hand in the new series by providing the art for the main cover of Spider-Punk #1 with variant covers from artists Todd Nauck, Maria Wolf, Mike Del Mundo, and Takashi Okazaki. Spider-Punk #1 will be available at local comic shops and digitally on April 6th, 2022. Check out the official synopsis, creative team, and covers below:
Written by CODY ZIGLAR
