This summer, we'll be able to celebrate all things Marvel with Giant-Size Amazing Spider-Man #1, a special one-shot that brings together a whole host of mega talent to tell all-new tales that encapsulate the heart of Marvel Comics storytelling.

Today, we have a first look at this grand tour of Spidey's corner of the Marvel Universe, including the electrifying debut of an all-new superhero: Rapid.

Here's a taste of what you can look forward to in the pages of Giant-Size Amazing Spider-Man #1:

  • The iconic Kevin Smith makes his triumphant return to Marvel, teaming up with acclaimed artist Giuseppe Camuncoli for an instantly classic Spider-Man and Fantastic Four team-up that will have your heart beating in overdrive and your sides hurting from how much you’re laughing.
  • It’s a mind-bending journey that can only come from creators Al Ewing and Mark Buckingham as Spider-Man is thrown into the very fabric of Marvel history--packed with reality-shattering revelations and exciting guest stars, including Wyn from G.O.D.S.!
  • Meet RAPID, a hot new hero who throws Spidey for a loop and whose adventures in the Marvel Universe is only just beginning in a tale from superstar creators Chip Zdarsky and Cafu!
  • The day Kid Venom fans have been waiting for finally arrives! Be there when acclaimed writer Mitsuyasu Sakai and Marvel mainstay artist Gerardo Sandoval bring the breakout symbiote superstar to the present-day main Marvel Universe!

This sounds like a lot of fun, and Smith's Marvel Comics return is particularly intriguing after his past work on Daredevil: Guardian Devil and Spider-Man/Black Cat: The Evil That Men Do.

"Everyone always says Giant-Size X-Men this, Giant-Size X-Men that," Spider-Editor Nick Lowe says of the comic. "And I’m sick of it, so we put together the best and coolest Giant-Size book ever."

"Kevin Smith and Giuseppe Camuncoli spin an instant classic! Al Ewing and Mark Buckingham use Spidey as a prism to the whole Marvel Universe and it’s history! Chip Zdarsky and Cafu bring you the coolest new Marvel character in recent memory who throws Spidey for a loop! And that’s not even all!" 

You can check out some all-new artwork along with all four covers, including pieces by Mark Bagley, Lee Bermejo, and Scott Hepburn for Giant-Size Amazing Spider-Man #1 below.

Lee Bermejo is a great artist but I hate how baggy he makes costumes look sometimes. Especially on characters like Spidey where it needs to be more form fitting.

@Gmoney84 - yeah, the fact that we’ve seen on screen depictions of the costume that aren’t baggy at all makes his choice even more retrograde

@Dotanuki - If it had a clunky metal belt it would look a lot like the 70's TV Spider-man :)
