The web-head goes back to the symbiote era for Spider-Man: Black Suit & Blood

Maybe the biggest Black, White & Blood series yet, Spider-Man: Black Suit & Blood will bring Spidey fans back to the symbiotic era.

We were Spider-Man

If you know Black, White & Blood, then you know that the collection of mini-series’ has had a decidedly specific tone. Marvel’s line has looked to deliver stylish and hard-hitting stories starring the likes of Wolverine, Deadpool, Moon Knight, and even Darth Vader. Now that series is growing once again, with some symbiote-suit Spidey action.

Believe it or not, it was 2019 when we last saw the wall-crawler in his symbiotic duds, as Marvel went back for some retconned, ‘untold tales’ from when he wore the black and white. This new series will likely be a bit different, even with the similar overall theme.

After all, this will be Spider-Man: Black Suit & Blood…

The new series sees all-star creators, including some Spidey storytelling legends, honor the 40th Anniversary of Spider-Man’s black costume “black, white & blood” style! Some will reveal never-before-told tales set during the Spidey’s Black Suit era while others explore the costume’s legacy and its impact on Peter. 

Here’s what fans can look forward to in the debut issue! 

·J.M. DeMatteis returns to his masterpiece “Kraven’s Last Hunt” alongside Elena Casagrande with an unforgiving story that sheds new light on an iconic scene.

·J. Michael Straczynski and artist Sumit Kumar in his Marvel Comics debut rips Peter Parker’s (and the symbiote’s) heart out! A last vestige of the symbiote has stayed with Peter all these years, waiting for the right moment to tear Spidey down! 

·Dustin Nguyen writes and draws a spine-chilling tale of Spider-Man being HUNTED. But how can he hope to escape when the danger comes from within?
