The series has seen numerous storyline revamps and significant artist transitions over the years, keeping Spidey at the forefront of comic book culture. This new arc by Joe Kelly and Ed McGuinness promises to add an intriguing twist to Spider-Man’s storied past, blending magic and superheroic elements in fresh, unexpected ways.
