Web of Spider-Man is the name of a Comic Book series starring Spider-Man published by Marvel Comics for 129 issues between 1985 and 1995 . It replaced '' Marvel Team-Up '' as the third major Spider-Man title of the time. It's first issue featured the return of Spiderman's Alien Black Custome , which attempted to bond with Peter. Peter managed to rid himself of the custome again using church bells and the alien was presumed to have died after that. For the first several years of its run, and in 1990-1991, ''Web of Spider-Man'' had no permanent creative team - as a result, the book's quality was much more inconsistent compared to the other two major Spider-Man titles of the time, '' The Amazing Spider-Man '' and '' The Spectacular Spider-Man ''. From 1984 to 1988, the personnel who contributed to the title included Writers Louise Simonson , David Michelinie , Bill Mantlo , James Owsley , and Peter David , and Penciller s Greg LaRocque , Jim Mooney , Sal Buscema , Marc Silvestri , Mike Zeck , and Mark Bagley . The most frequent contributor to the book was artist Alex Saviuk , who pencilled over 80 issues of the series between 1988 and 1994 . During his run on the title, Saviuk worked with a succession of writers - Gerry Conway (1989-1990), Howard Mackie (1992-1993), and Terry Kavanagh (1993-1995), and was succeeded by Steven Butler in 1994 (Butler and writer Todd DeZago were the last creative team on the series before it was cancelled). In issue #18, on the last page, Peter Parker is pushed in front of an oncoming train. He thinks to himself that this should not have happened, as his 'spider Sense' would have warned him of the danger. Writer David Michelinie has said that he wrote this as the first 'teaser' appearance of the character Venom , whom he was planning to introduce at a later date. Venom is an amalgam of rival photographer Eddie Brock and the very much alive, alien costume. The costume could Nulify Spider-Man's 'spider Sense' and this was the first clue of a puzzle that Michelinie was planning to weave to introduce Venom. As he stopped writing Web of Spider-Man shortly after this issue, he did not have the chance to tie in the pushing of Peter Parker in front of the train with the appearance of Venom. Later, Michelinie wrote Amazing Spider-Man, starting with issue # 290. He, along with artist Todd McFarlane , did introduce Venom to great fanfare and fan response. After #129 in October 1995 the title was renamed '' Web Of Scarlet Spider '' and started again at #1. After 4 issues of '' Web Of Scarlet Spider '' the series was cancelled to make way for the new '' The Sensational Spider-Man '' title. REFERENCES |
