New Releases by Brian Michael Bendis

Peter Parker è lo Spider-Man che tutti conosciamo, quello di Terra-616. Anche su Terra-1610 il costume del Tessiragnatele era indossato da Peter Parker, ma ora che questi è morto il ruolo è passato al giovane Miles Morales. Grazie alle – o per colpa delle – macchinazioni di Mysterio, i due eroi sono destinati a incontrarsi, e l’Universo Marvel non sarà più lo stesso! Due mondi simili, eppure diversi; un giustiziere è alle prese con una vita che avrebbe potuto essere la sua, e un altro si trova faccia a faccia con la versione adulta del suo eroe caduto. Questo e molto altro in una storia semplicemente epocale che porta le firme di Brian Michael Bendis (The Avengers) e Sara Pichelli (Scarlet Witch). [CONTIENE SPIDER-MEN (2012) 1-5]
