DARK HORSE COMICS FOR OCTOBER

Dark Horse Comics has released its solicitations for October.

For a rundown, with images, CLICK HERE.



MARVEL COMICS ROUNDUP

Marvel Comics has announced an October launch for a new monthly Spider-Man series, Web of Spider-Man.

The series will feature extra-sized issues by various creators. The issue is written by J.M. DeMatteis, Tom DeFalco and others, with art by Val Semeiks, Ron Frenz and others and a cover by Pasqual Ferry.

"With the 'Gauntlet' storyline starting up and many classic adversaries of Spider-Man coming back to the book, we wanted to find a place to tell you more about them without it eating up too many pages of the thrice-weekly Amazing Spider-Man," said series editor Steve Wacker. "So while were tossing ideas around on where to best put that stuff, beleaguered assistant Tom Brennan came up with the notion to bring back the Web title as a way to give a home to stories to people caught up in Petešs life.

"Starting with the first issue's Kaine story by J.M. DeMatteis and then continuing onto stories about Electro, the Rhino, the Lizard and many more by Web-Head Fred van Lente and regular Spidey artist Barry Kitson, the stories here directly impact what we're doing in Amazing Spider-Man!˛

The book will also feature Spider-Girl stories by DeFalco and Frenz.
