That promises to finally pull the curtain back on whatever Fisk has planned, though it looks a lot like the villain is once again intent on reuniting with his beloved Vanessa.
"If you thought 2020 held some huge Spidey surprises (the return of the Green Goblin, the reveal of Kindred as Harry Osborn, the Sin-Eater’s reign of terror), you ain’t seen nothing yet," Editor Nick Lowe teases. "Nick Spencer is telling the biggest stories in Amazing Spider-Man history, and they can’t fit in a normal comic, so we’re Giant-Sizing, starting with the cacophonous climax of 'King’s Ransom!'"
Marvel Comics promises that we'll find out Kingpin’s goal and how it violates all natural law. We'll also learn more about the years’ old enmity between Tombstone and Robbie Robertson, and discover what’s next for Spidey's fan-favourite frenemy, Boomerang. There's all that and more as Spider-Man’s whole status quo is turned upside down in one explosive showdown.
Giant-Size Amazing Spider-Man: King's Ransom #1 comes our way from writer Nick Spencer and artist Rogê Antônio (X-Men Red) this May, and Mark Bagley's cover can be seen below:
