| Amazing Fantasy #1000 Recruits Comic Book Legends for Spider-Man's 60th Anniversary By SPENCER PERRY - May 13, 2022 11:39 pm EDT Following a big tease that arrived yesterday, Marvel Comics has confirmed that they'll be releasing Amazing Fantasy #1000 later this year to mark the occasion of 60 years of Spider-Man. As fans may recall, the fan-favorite webslinger made his world debut in Amazing Fantasy #15 back in August of 1962. To celebrate six decades of the friendly neighborhood wall-crawler, Marvel Comics has enlisted a slew of acclaimed comics talent for "a giant-sized one-shot." According to a press release from the publisher, Amazing Fantasy #1000 will feature a collection of stories that "explores the past and future of Amazing Spider-Man storytelling in tales that leave a profound impact on the Spider-Man mythos and showcase why Spidey is one of the most beloved heroes in history!" "It's Spider-Man's 60th and we wanted to celebrate in style by inviting some of the greatest creative minds in the world to celebrate it!" Editor Nick Lowe said in a statement. Amazing Fantasy #1000 will be published this August, with additional announcements of variant covers, creators, and more to be announced later. Among the talent enlisted for the issue includes: Visionary writer Neil Gaiman's grand return to the Marvel Universe Emmy Award winning creator behind "Veep" and "Avenue 5" Armando Ianucci's Marvel Comics debut Spider-Man mastermind Dan Slott and superstar artist Jim Cheung team up to explore the enduring love between Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson in a story set in the far future Acclaimed artist Michael Cho and novelist Anthony Falcone introduce a new Spider-Man villain Ho Che Anderson crafts a horror-fueled Spidey adventure that cuts to Peter Parker's core Plus stories by Rainbow Rowell, Jonathan Hickman, and many more!  The same month that sees the release of Amazing Fantasy #1000 will also see the release of the landmark Amazing Spider-Man #900 as well. Writer Zeb Wells and artist John Romita Jr. took the reins of the title earlier this month wit hthe upcoming 900th issue set to feature a new terrifying take on the Sinister Six, a villainous group that has terrorized the web-slinger throughout his heroic career. The issue will introduce the Sinister Adaptoid, who has the abilities of Spidey's greatest foes: Doctor Octopus, Vulture, Kraven the Hunter, Electro, Mysterio, and Sandman. Ed McGuinness is the artist on Amazing Spider-Man #6, which has a legacy numbering of #900. The solicitation for the one-shot reads as follows for now: AMAZING FANTASY #1000 Written by NEIL GAIMAN, ARMANDO IANNUCCI, JONATHAN HICKMAN, DAN SLOTT, HO CHE ANDERSON, KURT BUSIEK, ANTHONY FALCONE, RAINBOW ROWELL AND MORE!

I'm tempted to say something cynical but I did break down and buy a bunch of those Detective 1000 books because the covers were pretty cool. Never read one, but I like the covers. |

| @EbayMafia I bought the midtown Mattina virgin. I regret not getting the Alex Ross cover, but at the time I was still new to collecting. Now he’s one of my favorites. | ||
