Marvel Comics Launches Savage Spider-Man Without Chris Bachalo
Following on from Non-Stop Spider-Man, writer Joe Kelly will be continuing the story in February from Marvel with the cliffhanger it left with, but without Chris Bachalo as its artist. Instead Gerardo Sandoval will draw the new series, as previously teased by Bleeding Cool, Savage Spider-Man.
Superstar writer Joe Kelly just finished taking Peter Parker on the most action-packed, pulse-pounding, adrenaline-pumping adventure in Spider-Man history in NON-STOP SPIDER-MAN! And he's only just getting started… Spinning out of NON-STOP SPIDER-MAN this February comes SAVAGE SPIDER-MAN! Written by Kelly and featuring the distinctive and dynamic talents of artist Gerardo Sandoval, this all-new limited series will feature Spider-Man like you've never seen him… Peter Parker finds himself at the middle of the biggest, most wide-ranging adventure he's ever had and out of the gate it has turned him into a savage beast! Forget everything you know about Spider-Man. All rules and regulations are out the door and Peter Parker may never be the same! "You may think you've seen a monstrous or vicious Spider-Man before, but never like this," says Spider-Editor Nick Lowe. "This book is so intense that you're going to need to put it down between pages to get your breath back."
"Spider-Man is always a huge challenge to draw, he's not an easy character for an artist. But at the same time Spider-Man is a huge joy to draw and now we have a Savage Spider-Man who provides an even bigger challenge for an artist," says Sandoval. "I have the pages that I am working on and I can say that I am doing my best work here for sure. Joe Kelly is the kind of writer that understands an artist needs enough room to create great illustrations and it makes my work easier and more fun. I really hope you enjoy this new book as much as I do!"
