Improbable Previews: The Osborn Mistaken Identity Begins In Amazing Spider-Man #25

Published Sun, 19 Feb 2017 14:00:52 -0600

Every so often, comic book publishers send out previews of upcoming comics without any of the lettering finished. The result, while pretty to look at, leaves readers wondering just what the hell is going on in those pages. Well, wonder no more.

Here at Bleeding Cool, we have combined decades of experience in reading comic books, so we can tell what's happening, even without the words. Using that knowledge, we've lettered these previews ourselves, using our best guess at what the dialog should actually be. We can't guarantee 100% accuracy- in fact, our accuracy may be much lower than that – but we can guarantee that it's better than looking at a bunch of unfinished pages.

In this issue of Improbable Previews, the next chapter of The Amazing Spider-Man begins as Dan Slott and Stuart Immonen kick off The Osborn Identity. What has changed in the Spider-World since the epic Clone Conspiracy event? A billionaire CEO, just like Marvel's own Ike Perlmutter, Peter Parker has been asked to join the Donald Trump administration as a special advisor (*as revealed in the previous issue of Improbable Previews). As The Osborn Identity begins, we put Stan Lee's famed "Marvel Method" to use as we look at the unlettered artwork and figure out what the dialog should be. Amazing Spider-Man #25 hits stores on March 8.
