That cover is amazing.

Dan Slott's run has either been a hit or miss with me, but I am completely looking forward to this.

RavenT2on Feb. 21, 2012 at 1:30 p.m.

Awesome! Can't wait for this one!

RedheadedAtrocituson Feb. 21, 2012 at 1:30 p.m.

Dell'Otto really made a great variant cover there. That would be something I would definitely consider getting if even just for the art.

Should be a good story arc. The Amazing Spider-man seems to be the only series I enjoy with big story arcs.

No Ramos? :(

Dan Slott has been knocking his run on Spider-Man out of the park. More so than JMS in my opinion and I'm sure as hell this arc will not disapoint.

But with some wired sexual undertones, even the title of the article is suggestive.

How long has Doc Ock looked like this? Looks good.

goldenkeyon Feb. 21, 2012 at 2:25 p.m.

Doc Ock is just creepy now.

Dell'otto managed to make Doc Ock's new look deadly. I like it!

QuantomManon Feb. 21, 2012 at 2:45 p.m.

dude....wow that's cool

what has Ock been eating!

A few years.

Anyway, I can't wait. Slott has been plotting towards this since Big Time began, should be epic.

RigorMortison Feb. 21, 2012 at 3:11 p.m.

Ock has radioactive drool.

CombatSpoon86on Feb. 21, 2012 at 3:20 p.m.

Big Dell'otto Fan. Cover looks sick.

jaredbrighton Feb. 21, 2012 at 3:37 p.m.

That looks terrible. That's not Doc Ock. It could be any character. A robot character. It has no personality. They should just give fans generic stuff. That's all Marvel wanted to do. Atleast you could tell who the old Doc Ock was.

Dig Deeper into Spider-Man

Peter Parker was bitten by a radioactive spider as a teenager, granting him spider-like powers. After the death of his Uncle Ben, which he could have prevented, Peter learned that "with great power comes great responsibility". Swearing to always protect the innocent from harm, Peter Parker became the Amazing Spider-Man!
