Amazing Spider-Man Family #3
I mentioned last time that I had some new work from Marvel Comics. Well, one of those has now been announced. I’ve written a story for Amazing Spider-Man Family that will come out December 3rd. You can read the catalogue description at Marvel’s website. Most people know that Peter Parker (a.k.a. Spider-Man) was raised by his Uncle Ben and Aunt May. What most people don’t know, and will read in my story, is a little about Peter’s parents, Richard and Mary Parker, and the adventures they had while Peter was a baby. It’s a fun story that I had a blast writing. And in the same issue you’ve got more stories from Tom DeFalco and J.M. DeMatteis, so it promises to have some great writing (I’m humbled to even be in the same comic as these two veterans of the industry). For art you’ll find Ramon Bachs (who’s also doing the upcoming Marvel Apes miniseries), Todd Nauck (who recently did Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man with writer Peter David), and Patrick Olliffe on the cover.
I found myself working with Marvel editors Steve Wacker and Tom Brennan on this story – both great guys to work with who handle a ton of titles for Marvel and are putting out some tremendous comics (check out Amazing Spider-Man if you want to read a Spider-Man that will bring you back to your childhood Spidey).
I’ve got one other story cooking for Marvel, but I’ll wait until things are further along on that one to say anything.
Thanks for reading. Remember to check out my webcomic, Devolution, over at www.ComicCritique.com, and if you have comments, feel free to write and let me know what you think at DevolutionComic@gmail.com.
