Marvel Comics has revealed more stories and covers for its upcoming DC crossover Spider-Man/Superman, due out April 15. The two newly revealed stories are a team-up for Supergirl and Ghost-Spider (Spider-Gwen) by Stephanie Phillips & Phil Noto, and an additional segment starring the titular pair by Jeph Loeb and Jim Cheung.
Phillips, who currently writes All-New Spider-Gwen: The Ghost-Spider, states, “Spider-Gwen and Supergirl both represent different kinds of strengths and powers, but they’re united by their compassion and resilience. I really loved the chance to let these heroes save the day together and have fun doing it. And Phil Noto on art just takes it to another level. Kara, Gwen, and I are lucky to have him!”
Loeb says, “How often do you get to land on the moon? Travel back in time? Be a part of history? That’s what it was like when Marvel asked me to be part of Spider-Man/Superman! It’s a short story that I’d like to think emotionally connects with Spider-Man: Blue and Superman for All Seasons, two of my favorite things I’ve written. Then, the most incredible part is that the incomparable Jim Cheung is illustrating the story, giving it the perfect feel!”
The newly revealed covers consist of:
- Gary Frank‘s variant, showcasing his story with Geoff Johns and Mysterio:
- Humberto Ramos‘s variant, spotlighting his story with Joe Kelly, featuring Gwen Stacy and Lana Lang:
- Frank Miller‘s cover with an armored Superman, the original Spider-Armor, and Batman in his final battle suit from The Dark Knight Returns:
- E.M. Gist‘s variant:
- Skottie Young‘s characteristically humorous spin:
Spider-Man/Superman will feature a main story by Brad Meltzer and Pepe Larraz pitting the heroes against Lex Luthor and Norman Osborn; for more details on the previously revealed strips and covers, click here.
