Today Marvel dropped yet another piece of the Secret Wars. Dan Slott’s Spider-Island gets a piece of Battleworld. Secret Wars: Spider-Island features a lead story revisiting the “Spider-Island” event by Christos Gage and Paco Diaz, and along with that is a secondary story featuring a return of not just Mayday Parker but the entire MC2 universe, with key creators Tom Defalco and Ron Frenz.
Gage says his lead story in Spider-Island is set in an alternate timeline where Spider-Queen won that day instead of being thwarted by Spider-Man. Spider-Island‘s secondary story featuring Mayday and the return of the MC2, it starts off with Mayday’s decision to transition from the name Spider-Girl to Spider-Woman.

Today, two more characters were revealed for the All-New All-Different Avengers. So far we’re 2 for 5 in our pool with the reveal of the Vision and Nova. It looks like Marvel isn’t going to wait till FCBD to show the new team off to the world. Expect the entire roster to be revealed within the next week.
Who do you think the remaining figures are and who do those glowing hands belong to? What about Spider-Island, ye or nay? Are there events left you think Marvel should revisit?
The guy in the center is the All-New Captain America (Boo!). Then you got Iron Man flying by the round shield. As for the guy next to Ms. Marvel, my guess would be Spider-Man.
