Electro Will Take Peter Parker to the ENDS OF THE EARTH in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN

It's just getting worse and worse for Spider-Man.

Yesterday we saw a teaser for the upcoming arc 'Ends of the Earth' in THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. Doc Ock is ready to get his final revenge against Spider-Man and he's not going to do it alone. Today, Marvel has released another teaser. This one features Electro.

Looks like we might be seeing the return of the old "Parker Luck."

The next big Spider-Man epic begins in Amazing Spider-Man #682, part one of Ends Of The Earth, by Dan Slott and Stefano Caselli! The Sinister Six, led by the vengeful Doctor Octopus, is back and they’re looking for revenge!

“Max Dillon has evolved from a simple super villain to a living force of nature,” explains Slott. “How can anyone stop power incarnate?”

Can Spider-Man & Earth’s Mightiest save the world before Doc Ock’s explosive endgame is revealed? Find in Amazing Spider-Man #682 hitting comic shops and the Marvel Comics app this March!

getting exited for this, I'm always very sceptical when it comes to events but character centric events are usually not that bad and Dan Slott hasn't let me down yet.

I love Del'Otto's covers. Anyway, bring on the Sinister Six! I can't wait.

I don't read Spider-man and I didn't plan on starting, but I am hearing Dan Slott's name enough to be very curious.

Gauntlet 2.0?

obscurefanon Feb. 22, 2012 at 12:38 p.m.

I still don't really like the lightning bolt suspenders look on Electro, but I'm glad to see the Sinister Six being a real threat once again.

Once again this really is having a ring of "RIP" to it for some reason, at least to me. I love the art though.

NightFangon Feb. 22, 2012 at 12:46 p.m.

Looks like Spidey dead already.

Well Doc Ock is going to kick the bucket

Oh god, this gets even better! Sinister Six vs. Spider-man. The prize? The Earth! I mean, Slott has proven to be maybe the best Spider-writer (some might think JMS as a better one), the art is gonna be gorgeous and the covers look magnificent.

Ganthetsward20on Feb. 22, 2012 at 1:11 p.m.

I love the covers!!

Decept-Oon Feb. 22, 2012 at 1:32 p.m.

Incredible art. OK looks like Spider-Man is actually getting a much deserved better direction in terms of the stories. It is late to say but I am glad Electro had his costume and overall character changed a bit. Spidey is getting some challenges thrown at him now!

scottyhansteinon Feb. 22, 2012 at 1:36 p.m.

Looking for a jumping on point, this could easily be it.

The Sadhuon Feb. 22, 2012 at 1:47 p.m.

Spidey always seems to be going from one event to another...

I hope this guy gets a rest soon! Maybe the next event could be... 'Spider-Man Goes on Holiday!'

However, knowing his luck, something might happen.

SexualLobsteron Feb. 22, 2012 at 2:10 p.m.

I hope to see Spidey cut loose and maybe 'waste' a bad guy or two because of the severity of his mission.

haydenclaireheroeson Feb. 22, 2012 at 2:10 p.m.

@spiderbat87: I agree I am usually skepical about events also ,but I trust Dan Slott to do a great job with this story arc. We will have to cross our fingers and hope for the best

CombatSpoon86on Feb. 22, 2012 at 2:46 p.m.

Dell'otto knows how to draw. Love it.

Deadcoolon Feb. 22, 2012 at 3:23 p.m.

Dat Dell'Otto's art!

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!
