Finally, Marvel has decide to put an end to the mischevious adventures of that wall-crawling criminal, Spider-Man! The masked menace, who first appeared in Amazing Fantasy #15 in 1962 and broke out into his own series, The Amazing Spider-Man, in 1963, has been terrorizing the streets of New York City with his vigilante antics for fifty years. The actions of the web-slinger have attracted a seemingly infinite number of costumed lunatics who have wreaked havoc in the city in attempts to engage Spider-Man in combat. More importantly, true heroes like astronaut John Jameson are frequently ignored by the press, despite their actions being far more admirable and important than those of that arachnid asshole.

While the Outhouse has been one of the few internet publications to speak the truth about Spider-Man, most websites have praised Amazing Spider-Man and its various spinoff books over the years. Finally, it seems, Marvel Comics has seen the light, as they announced in their most recent solicitations that Amazing Spider-Man #700 is the series' final issue. Hopefully, this will be the end of Spider-Man, and is not simply indicative of an impending Marvel NOW! Spider-Man relaunch announcement which will result in seven new Spider-Man books, four of which will co-star Wolverine.

Are the names in that city scape indicative of how long they worked on the character? That'd be awesome. (Cool cover regardless)

I wonder if the relaunched Spiderman title will still be biweekly. I hope not, as my wallet could use the relief.

Is any book actually safe from the NOWpocalypse? I mean if they're gonna restart ASM why not just restart everything? why not just have the New 53?

But in all seriousness I think I've figured out why we haven't seen Gage's name pop up in any of the Marvel NOW! ads. Also if the relaunch of ASM is the mystery project for Bachalo you can go right ahead and add at least 50 more angry emoticons to this post.

Wolverine and the Spider-Men coming soon.

No. If it were Sal Buscema wouldn't be in such a small font.

That delighted Jonah image.

I move that Jude make "Jude Jonah Jameson" his regular name now.

I love this article. The picture and everything works so well together!

I second this motion!

[GHERU]

as long as the new #1 doesn't have Ramos on art, RU will buy ASM again

[Log-Man]

I second this motion!

President Keb, make this happen!

Wolverine and the Spider-Men coming soon.
