Death And Kisses in January's 8 Deaths Of Spider-Man
Death And Kisses in January's 8 Deaths Of Spider-Man... as Peter Parker snogs the Black Cat and Phil Coulson becomes the new Marvel Death
Article Summary
- Peter Parker explores romance with Black Cat as Spider-Man faces life-threatening challenges.
- New Marvel arc, "8 Deaths of Spider-Man," pits Spidey against Scions with deadly powers.
- Phil Coulson becomes Marvel's new embodiment of Death in this gripping Spider-Man series.
- Iconic covers and intense storytelling make this a must-watch era for Spider-Man fans.
At New York Comic Con, Joe Kelly talked about writing the character unmarried, "It feels very relatable, and it feels like if I were this superhero, the terrible way I would go about my romantic life. So Eight Deaths doesn't get into a ton of that, though it does get into some of it. I think it's fair to say that all of the ladies in his life play pretty prominent roles in Eight Deaths, and I think you get a pretty good slice and pretty good optics into people and who he cares about. Especially that issue 65, which is the really good guts of this whole thing". The just-released Marvel solicits for January 2024, include Amazing Spider-Man solicits for "8 Deaths Of Spider-Man" with #66, #66 and an interim issue, 65.Deaths. But it may be the cover to #66 that will get the most attention, but Phil Coulson is the new embodiment of Death? Really? Does this mean Thanos will want a thing with him going forward?
