Article Summary

Marvel Comics has informed retailers that the upcoming Amazing Spider-Man #1000 has been "delayed at the printer". Apparently, Spider-Man sprayed webbing all over the printing reels. And so, rather than being published on the 16th of September, it will now be out on the 30th of September.

Around 104 pages priced at $9.99, the main story, Ravaged, is written by current series writer Joe Kelly with art by Pepe Larraz.

Spider-Man confronts his greatest fear and a new villain described as one of his most frightening in decades: Ravage. This personal battle is said to force Peter Parker to question his legacy and will shape the series going forward. It has been suggested that this is the past version of the future Marvel 20909 character Ravage, co-created by Stan Lee. The comic will also have a cover featuring previously unpublished Spider-Man art by Steve Ditko.

The issue also features a lineup of special anniversary backup stories by notable creators, Now I Can Rest by Dan Slott and Marcos Martin, a new look at the night of Uncle Ben's death, The Gesture by Brian Michael Bendis and Stuart Immonen with a team-up between Spider-Man and the Avengers against some of his greatest foes, Tears of the Spider-Queen by Frank Miller and Peach Momoko, their first collaboration with, Spider-Man vs. the Hand, Still Standing by Noah Hawley, known for Fargo, Legion, Alien: Earth making his Marvel Comics debut; and Patrick Gleason, as an older Peter Parker reflects on his life and prepares for one final adventure. Requiem for a Goblin by J.M. DeMatteis and Humberto Ramos revisits the aftermath of Harry Osborn's death. And Of Webs and Six-Guns by Larry Lieber and Giuseppe Camuncoli, tells a Spider-Man Western. Just two weeks after they thought…
