Ain’t It Cool News has posted the image for the first poster of “Spider-Man 4″. No sign of Mephisto so it’s safe to say “One More Day: The Motion Picture” is out as a possibility. EDIT 6/5/09 12:10 AM: It appears this poster may be a fake as sources are now coming forward.
Writer: Joe Kelly Plot Peter and Harry at the park. Wolverine and Spider-Man have a chat. A dinner party ruined. Menace returns. Spider-Man vs. Norman Osborn.
Before I get into the review proper I am going to spend valuable time griping about the cover to this week’s issue. Oddly enough it is not the art that bugs me, though I will admit that I am not a huge fan of Phil Jimenez’s artwork. Nothing against him personally as I recognize he has talent but I just don’t care for his style, especially when inked by the equally talented Andy Lanning. No, the problem I have with this issue’s cover is the UPC box. Hokey smokes does that thing make an already busy cover look bad. I realize that the powers that be probably didn’t want to cover up any of the art in the lower left hand corner but wow, that just stares at you, mocking you, making you question things about yourself and all you believe. It really takes away from a rather nice composition kind of like checking out a man or woman and thinking they have a very attractive face until you notice the giant pimple on their forehead. So through no fault of the artists involved this issue’s cover was kind of ruined, which is sad.
Thanks Aunt May for embarassing Peter in front of his girlfriend. Why don’t you tell Betty about the time Peter wet the bed? Betty makes the excuse to get away, look what you did! Aunt May’s social graces can be found in Amazing Spider-Man Annual 1. Marvel released this “tease” for their next big crossover event.
