Insomniac Games and Marvel Comics are teaming up to bring a Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 to market for this year’s Free Comic Book Day.
“When we initially sat down with the team at Marvel, we explored a few different ideas about what kinds of stories we could tell in a prequel comic. But we kept coming back to the same core premise—What if Peter, Miles, and MJ had to team up against a new Super Villain whose powers they didn’t understand? Additionally, we wanted to make sure that we could get a peek into what this heroic trio has been doing since the events of Marvel’s Spider-Man and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales. What is Pete up to now that there are two Spider-Men in the city? How is Miles doing in school? And how is MJ’s journalism career going?”
Peter, Miles, and MJ do their best to balance life and responsibilites and their friendships. However, in recent times they’ve begun to ask if magic is real. The issue will also introduce “a beloved villain,” with supernatural abilities to boot – The Hood.
The comic comes from Christos Gage (a writer for Marvel’s Spider-Man) and artist IG Guara. Fans in the US can visit a participating comic book store or download the comic digitally on the Marvel Unlimited app* or Marvel.com starting on May 6. The comic will be available digitally worldwide through the Marvel Unlimited app at a later date.
Additionally, Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered will become available for standalone purchase on PlayStation Store. This title was previously only included as part of Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition.
You can upgrade from the PS4 copy to any other version for $10 dollars. Owners of Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales can still obtain Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered by upgrading to the Ultimate Edition through the main menu of the PS5 version of Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
For those just want to purchase it, Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered can be purchased on PlayStation Store for $49.99.
