Marvel's Dark Web Teased For Free Comic Book Day (Spoilers)

Over two months ago, Bleeding Cool reported "Marvel To Publish "Dark Web" Comic Book Series" based on my ferreting out that Marvel Comics had trademarked the phrase "Dark Web" for "Printed comic books; printed periodicals in the field of comic book stories and artwork; printed posters. Providing online entertainment, namely, non-downloadable comic books and graphic novels." I also reported that "Marvel is also trademarking "Iron Cat" which suggests a return for Black Cat to her Iron Man costume is in the offing, as well as "Midnight Sons" – a previous name for the supernatural superheroic line at Marvel Comics, such as Ghost Rider, Blade and Morbius."

Since then Iron Cat was solicited, just as we suspected, but there has been no mention of a new Midnight Sons. But what about Dark Web? Well, some leaked imagery from the upcoming Free Comic Book Day Spider-Man/Venom comic books shows off the new Ben Reilly character Chasm. Whatever it is, it will be big enough for Marvel Comics to try and get the trademark. A new Spider-event to come?
