Skottie Young Shows Us How To Kill A Spider In New ‘8 Deaths Of Spider-Man’ Variants

by Tony Thornley

This November, Peter Parker needs to save the world, and it’ll take eight lives to do it. Amazing Spider-Man #61 kicks off this massive Spidey epic, and Marvel is bringing in one of their big guns.

Skottie Young’s young Marvel covers are one of the most popular variant cover series in comics, being featured on nearly every major release from the publisher for over a decade. Now for Spider-Man’s most dangerous adventure yet, Young shows us exactly how to kill a Spider!

Doctor Doom is Earth’s new Sorcerer Supreme. As part of that new mission, Doom has tasked Spider-Man with defeating the Scions of Cyttorak, a group of nigh-godlike beings that Spider-Man has no chance against. Fortunately Doom has given Peter a new magic-enhanced suit and 8 extra lives. It’s a good thing too, because it will take him every one of them to save the world!

While Peter faces the Scions, little Spidey will face a different way to kill Spiders on each  of the ten covers.

Marvel has revealed the first three of the covers. Check out all three above and watch for them on each issue of Amazing Spider-Man this winter!
