There's No Superior Spider-Man in Marvel's November Solicitations Either

Published Thu, 22 Aug 2019 17:30:17 -0500

As we've been noticing all day, there's quite a few books missing from Marvel's November solicitations. Punisher is one of them. Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur is another. Marvel Team-Up is one more. And Star Wars, it seems, is explicitly solicited as the final issue that month.

Add one more missing title to the list: Superior Spider-Man, the last solicited issue of which will hit stores on October 30th.

SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN #12
AUG190949
(W) Christos Gage (A/CA) Mike Hawthorne
• Otto Octavius has faced certain death and emerged the victor –
it just meant someone else had to lose.
• But the Superior Spider-Man has learned to care for others more than himself–and Spider-Norman Osborne of Earth-44145 won't be satisfied until blood is spilled. Whose will it be?
• The events of this issue will change Superior Spider-Man…permanently.

And in November, there's only a listing for this trade paperback:

SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN VOL. 2: OTTO-MATIC TPB
Written by CHRISTOS GAGE
Penciled by LAN MEDINA & MIKE HAWTHORNE
Cover by MIKE HAWTHORNE
Like the rest of America, the West Coast has been overrun with Frost Giants! But Otto Octavius doesn't settle for chaos — he plans to win the War of the Realms single-handedly. Well, maybe not single-handedly. He needs minions. Super-minions! So he recruits…the West Coast Avengers?! Will Otto Octavius and Quentin Quire become BFFs? If they can somehow work together and save San Francisco, Otto will be due a parade — but any celebrations might be short-lived, because someone dangerous is coming. Otto calls himself the Superior Spider-Man? Norman Osborn, the Spider-Man of Earth-44145 you met in SPIDER-GEDDON, begs to differ — and has some very creative ways to prove his true superiority! Norman is out to destroy everything. Does Otto stand a chance of stopping him? Does he even stand a chance at living through this?! Collecting SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN (2018) #7-12.

With Otto changed forever after Superior Spider-Man #12, who knows what could happen to his title. Maybe it's getting a reboot. Maybe it's canceled. Maybe the next issue is just not coming out until the first week of December, as Superior Spider-Man #11 is out on September 25th, more than a month before #12. Marvel doesn't announce cancellations, whether due to sales, author intent, or looming reboots… so your guess is as good as ours.

We reached out to Marvel for confirmation but haven't heard back as of press time.
