The latest trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home came out last week, and I wanted to celebrate that. Better late than never, right? THE THEME: Since the Far From Home trailer shows us that Mysterio is a good guy (allegedly) and will be teaming up with our favorite web-slinger, I thought it'd be cool to check out a few comics where Spider-Man teams up with other heroes. I went a little beyond the usual "dynamic duo", erm, dynamic, and decided to cover a few larger team-ups (barring stuff like Avengers). THE COMICS: ![]() AMAZING SPIDER-MAN: RENEW YOUR VOWS (2016–2018) #1 Publisher: Marvel Writers: Gerry Conway, Anthony Holden, Kate Leth Artists: Ryan Stegman, Anthony Holden, Marguerite Sauvage - Not only does Peter share married life (and a child) with MJ in this one, he shares the superheroics with his family. You get three stories for the price of one featuring this Spider-Family in this issue, each with varying tones and art styles. I love the third story's art a lot. - Comixology link ![]() MARVEL TEAM-UP (1972–1985) #1 Publisher: Marvel Writer: Roy Thomas Artist: Ross Andru - Whereas DC had The Brave and The Bold for twofold heroic action, Marvel had, well, Marvel Team-Up (which almost always features Spider-Man as the main dude). Here, he teams up with FF's Human Torch to beat up Sandman. It's also set on Christmas for some reason. It's some fun, retro comic action with a wholesome twist at the end. - Comixology link ![]() SPIDER-GEDDON #1 Publisher: Marvel Writers: Christos Gage, Dan Slott Artist: Jorge Molina - Remember Spider-Verse? Well, hold onto your butts, because now you've got Spider-Geddon, the sequel to the blockbuster comic event. It's another massive Spidey crossover of epic proportions; so epic, in fact, that it features the Spider-Man from the PS4 game (he's not in this issue, but there he is on the cover)! - Comixology link ![]() SPIDER-MAN/DEADPOOL (2016—) #1 Publisher: Marvel Writer: Joe Kelly Artist: Ed McGuinness - One of the most beloved Marvel team-ups ever is that of Spidey and Deadpool, and this series is dedicated to that duo. This first issue features the two in a wacky adventure where Deadpool and Spidey team up to take down Dormammu, then Hydro-Man. Deadpool, in his special, fucked up way, is trying to get Spidey to team up with him, but Spidey is not having it. This book also features a sneak peek at the 2016 Vision comic (the one where he lives in the suburbs with his family of synthezoids). - Comixology link ![]() SPIDER-MAN/DEADPOOL (2016—) #40 Publisher: Marvel Writer: Robbie Thompson Artist: Matt Horak - Spidey and Deadpool's adventures continue! In this issue, they try to make sure Master Matrix (a "young" Life Model Decoy) doesn't cause any more chaos. Mockingbird and her team are not happy about this, and are trying to bring down the LMD (who Spidey and Deadpool have become rather attached to). - Comixology link Spider-Man is pretty much Marvel's flagship hero, so it's no surprise to see him team up with other heroes over the decades. We may well see that come to life in Far From Home, but I'm convinced that Mysterio is a lying sack of shit. PANEL(s) OF THE WEEK: - end -
