The Scarlet Spider Returns!!

I am excited to see the return of Scarlet Spider. I hope it is Ben Reily that will be interesting to see. I would get the Scarlet Spider series. I guess as Spider Island comes to a close we will see who Scarlet Spider will be or at least see some clues and hints of his return.

New costume is pretty cool. But nothing tops that tattered hoodie, one of my favorite designs in any comic.

90's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm going against the obvious, logical, and popular candidate of who Scarlet Spider will be and cast my vote for... Mary Jane! Because she has red hair and (as seen on the cover of ASM 671) now has Spidey powers and I'm being silly.

(Yes, I know the Scarlet Spider is obviously a guy, but I don't think Marvel said anything about there being only ONE new hoodie-wearing arachnohero, yeah?) :D

I do love the new costume but it'll be lame if Ben isnt behind the mask. BEN REILLY will always be the #1 SCARLET SPIDER!!!

if its eddie brock I will start reading marvel again

It's most likely Kaine.

I just don't see Eddie completely losing his "symbiote"....there's got to be something that happens where he gets to keep it

I saw "symbiote" in quotes because I don't really feel like Eddie's suit is really a symbiote like Venom and Carnage

@danhimself: I'd go with that theory, except it really is basically white blood cells charged with the Venom symbiote by darkforce energy (Mr. Negative's powers). The entire suit was drained and clearly made into a giant vat of cure material. I'd love for Eddie to retain some powers, but Eddie becoming Scarlet Spider would be a bit weird (it could work, but still. A bit weird.)

@InnerVenom123: it would be really redeeming for his character and maybe others would start to trust him more but I honestly liked Anti-Venom so I don't really want to see him gone so easily

Why couldn't it be Brock?

LAWL it's Miles Morales.

Because Brock randomly taking up the Scarlet Spider mantle doesn't really make all that much sense...? Because he was

@danhimself: Who knows. I just doubt it'll happen.

about f ing time, i hope its ben

BRING BACK BEN!

Haha naturally, HE just regained the 'Parker looks' :D hope he gets his revenge on Jackal first though.

Look at the way the new SSpider's grasp has cut the guy in the bottom picture. Its obviously reminiscent of the mark of Kaine. I'm predicting that the scarlet spider's gonna be a more violent version of spiderman, though yost can make the whoe 'clone' concept work (he did for X 23).

If it isn't Ben Reilly, I'd hardly call this the "return" of the Scarlet Spider. Just another case of a different character with a different costume re-using the old name.

Big deal.

the red and black looks really works for me !

THAT....LOOKS....SO....AWESOME!!!!!!!! I love his new outfit. Is he going to be darker or edgier now? The style him in these new images make me wonder if he will be an anti-hero kind of like Brock or even a villain. However, if this isn't Ben Reily and its Kaine or something then SCREW IT.

it won't be Ben but KAINE instead.

I think the poster foreshadows his ability "mark of the Kaine". I'm not sure though.

616 miles morales?

Does anyone want Scarlet Spider to come back if he's not wearing his amazing original costume?

Nice.

Neato.

of course G-Man is right. he's the only character that makes sense to be scarlet spidey PLUS he just shows up all of a sudden out of the blue??

@G-Man: Why did you do that, man? You know that your "feelings" always work...you should have another "feeling" that it is Ben...but you're probably right, as always ;) Ben, Ben, Ben, will I ever see you again?

Shame it isn't Ben Reilly. as it isn't really the Scarlet Spider in that case. Sad, he was the one good thing that really came out through the Clone Saga.

IF it was Ben Riley they would have a sale since its looking like its not, no thankyou sir. New costume is cool though

Okay, thats pretty cool, and with Yost writing it the book should be great.

If you've been reading Spider-Island, especially the last issue, I think it's pretty obvious who the new Scarlet Spider will be.

I know this is out of left field, but doesn't that costume remind you of Flipside?

its a she and that she is ... Mary Jane Watson..... i know Kaine came out in the hoody, but im 85 percent sure its mj

@InnerVenom123: I am such a fan of Brock, I'd take him in any form. He's got an impeccable history

hate the costume. hope it's Ben.

I hope his costume keeps the hoodie for the majority of his appearance, it looks better with it, but with the hood down.

Looks pretty cool

I hope he is Earth-616 Miles Morales, that would be awesomely great.

Oh wow I could totally see that...Good call!

This looks cool, but i'm still hoping that Ben will return one day, him and his awesome hoodie.

Ugh, the Scarlet Spider/Ben Reilly/Clone Saga is the worst aspect of Spider-Man's history (aside from OMD, of course). Keep it in the past, Marvel.

Yes the return of the Scarlet Spider. Black and red for spider-man related characters is definitely popular this year. This makes me think Miles Morales might be the ultimate version of the new Scarlet Spider.

Looks really intense. :)

Nope, this one is is a clone. ;)

@FadeToBlackBolt: Clone Saga was bad, but Ben was great. I myself was completely disenfranchised with Spiderman after Ben's death. I didn't care for him being Spiderman but I'd have wanted to keep him as the Scarlet Spider.

The costume does look kinda..bad by itself. But with the blue shirt on, it's perfect! :D

Welcome back son
