Amazing Spider-Man #700 was a pretty controversial comic book at the time of its release, as it showed the death of Peter Parker. Well, at least Peter Parker's conscience, after Otto Octavius did some Freaky Friday fun and switched bodies with the iconic wall-crawler. While Peter was unable to change it back a part of his "mind" was locked away inside his body, but Doc Ock was now the newest Spider-Man and wanted to be truly something Superior. Hasbro has announced that it is time for the Superior Spider-Man to return to the Marvel Legends line, and it is better than ever.
This body-swapped webslinger is truly something superior and features a new and updated Marvel Comics accurate design based on the incredible run by the one and only Dan Slott. Hasbro even took it a step further and gave Otto his four robotic limbs, which was one of his signature elements in the comic. This is one figure that Hasbro has knocked out of the Spider-Verse, and pre-orders for him will arrive today at 1 PM for $29.99. Releasing as part of the Marvel Comics 85th Anniversary line from Hasbro, Superior Spider-Man will get the new packaging and will be found on Hasbro Pulse and other online retailers today.
