Collects SPIDER-MAN (2022) #1-7. The end of the Spider-Verse! Morlun is back - and he's not alone. Allied with one of the most powerful beings known to the Spider-Verse, the scariest villain of all time is making his biggest play - and no Spider is safe. Especially not the "chosen" Spider himself, Peter Parker! But as webbed heroes make their stand - and one by one, begin to fall - Morlun isn't their only problem. Shathra is back, even more powerful than the last time she nearly killed Peter and Ezekiel! And since then, she's had plenty of time to plot the death of all Spiders! Spidey's 60th Anniversary is no joke as writer Dan Slott and artist Mark Bagley - two of the most legendary Spider-Creators of all - collaborate on a Spider-Title for the first time! This will be one for the record books!
Dan Slott has built a loyal fan base by combining old-school fun with stories and characterizations friendly to new readers. Following his run on She-Hulk, Slott moved into the upper echelon of Marvel writers, launching Avengers: The Initiative and taking the reins on Mighty Avengers from Brian Michael Bendis. When Marvel gave Spider-Man a fresh start in 2008, Slott was one of several rotating writers on the thrice-monthly Amazing Spider-Man. Slott became the writer most closely identified with the web-slinger’s “Brand New Day” era, and the title hit the “Big Time” when he took over as full-time writer for a decade-long run filled with stunning adventures. Slott has also turned his talents to other iconic Marvel heroes, including soaring the spaceways with Silver Surfer; helming Tony Stark: Iron Man toward Iron Man 2020; and masterminding the glorious return of Fantastic Four, leading to his long-awaited “Reckoning War.”

Hired on the strength of his Official Marvel Tryout penciling submission, Mark Bagley rose to prominence as the artist of 1990s sleeper hit New Warriors. Following an acclaimed run on Amazing Spider-Man, he worked with writer Kurt Busiek on Thunderbolts. When Marvel launched its Ultimate line, Bagley and Brian Michael Bendis led the way with Ultimate Spider-Man, whose years of success made the pair the longest-running creative team in Marvel history. Bendis and Bagley have also collaborated on Avengers Assemble and the creator-owned Brilliant. His subsequent credits include Fantastic Four, Cataclysm: The Ultimates’ Last Stand, Hulk, All-New X-Men and Venom.
