Amazing Spider-Man #547; Marvel Comics
Amazing Spider-Man #547; the second issue of "Brand New Day". Could J.J Jameson and Peter Parker finally mend their ways and become more then friends? Find out in this issue were there is also some Spidey action, hi-jinx and drama.
Amazing Spider-Man looks to hit stores three times a month, with that demanding schedule, Spider-man has a rotating writer and artist roster changing every four months who includes; Dan Slott (Avengers: The Initiative) & Steve McNiven (Civil War), Marc Guggenheim (Flash) & Salvador Lorroca (X-men), Bob Gale (Back to the Future) & Phil Jimenez (Infinite Crisis) and Zeb Wells (Robot Chicken) & Chris Bachalo (Uncanny X-men). Amazing Spidey three times a month doesn't sound too bad to me!
AMAZING! AMAZING! AMAZING! In this premiere month, Spidey's new status quo gets a swift punch in the gut as Dan Slott (SHE-HULK; AVENGERS: THE INITIATIVE) and super-star artist Steve McNiven (CIVIL WAR) hit the ground running with new villains, new friends, and some familiar faces that promise to make Peter's life messier than ever before. This is where it's all happening. AMAZING SPIDER-MAN: Same Old Power. Same Old Responsibility. Brand New Day.
