Gang War continues in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #41 as the former Kingpin of Crime enters the fray! With all of New York’s super underworld fighting for dominance, you didn’t think Wilson Fisk would sit it out, did you? And then in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #42, the Beetle has stepped up in her father’s absence, and she’s become a very different Janice Lincoln. She’s smart, dangerous and ready to take the big chair. With Spider-Man and others distracted by Kingpin, she just might do it.

The final fight of GANG WAR begins in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #43 with the biggest and most brutal battle in Spider-Man history, so batten your hatches! If you thought you knew what Madame Masque or Hobgoblin or Beetle or Diamondback was capable of, THINK AGAIN!

Always bet on red and pick up Mary Jane’s first solo story since her super hero debut as Jackpot! New York City is in chaos as the super-powered criminal gangs are at war, and it’s all hands on deck! It’s a baptism by fire, but, come on, this is Mary Jane. What CAN’T she handle?!

And that’s not all: Spider-Boy leaps into the action in a new arc of SPIDER-MAN UNLIMITED!
