Comic Book Preview – Sensational Spider-Man: Self-Improvement #1

August 4, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

Marvel releases Sensational Spider-Man: Self-Improvement #1 this coming Wednesday, and you can take a look at a preview of the issue here; check it out…

In honor of Marvel’s 80th Anniversary, we’ve uncovered a hidden gem! Fan Randy Scheuller submitted an idea of Spider-Man donning a black suit before SECRET WARS, but his story was never printed. So we tasked SPIDER-MAN legends PETER DAVID and RICK LEONARDI with bringing it into the light! Then read a story by two of the creators who told the first printed stories of the black costume, TOM DEFALCO and RON FRENZ!

Sensational Spider-Man: Self-Improvement #1 is out on August 7th, priced $4.99.
