Sure seems like it's going to be, along with the rest of the Dying Wish storyline, which runs in 698-700. I think the new Superior Spider-Man's ID will be revealed.

I am guessing Miquel O'Hara - Spidey 2099. Based on the early images. Have not seen the actual book yet though.

That's a significant rumor going around as well. Rich Johnston said he's been spoiled on the issue, and the one thing he will say is it's not Miguel. No telling if he's messing around saying that, though.

It's possible Spider-Man 698 could be spoiled by searching for Spider-Man 365 on eBay. Just gotta do a bit of homework and deduction.

I normally try to avoid spoilers, but its real hard when you are a retailer trying to make sure all your customers are catered for. You cant pre order every book that Marvel say will be important, then sometimes they dont say at all, lol

Ill have a few extras for sale no doubt, but will snag some more on ebay wed morning :)

I just found a detailed spoiler on this issue. I'm surprised in for several reason. One reason I'm surprised is retailers seem to be indicatiing on eBay the new Spider-Man is someone, and they appear to be wrong who they're saying it is. In any event, this is going to be a strange, shocking issue, and perhaps historic.

I think there's also the possibility of it being a swerve. As in, the surprise in this issue is not neccesarily going to be the same when #700 rolls around.

Have I missed an issue or is this a request for pre-spoilers?

About 12 hours ago I saw a key page from this issue that had been posted online. It looks like it's been removed now. It is definately freaky.

There's been lots of what can only be called hype about this issue, and I was wanting a spoiler ahead of time.

i just read it and its nothing that wont be resolved in a few issues :)

Clever idea, but too many outs to be a big moment in the history of spidey.

Well I read what I think was the spoiler. Why is this a big deal? It just sounds like the beginning of an interesting story, not a direction change. I don't get it.

Honestly, I was expecting that they were going to Ultimatize 616 Spidey and rid themselves of white Peter Parker in favor of the new majority again... What I read is nothing like this, so why is this a big deal?

Just looked through this in the shop and I have to agree -is this really a big deal? A nice (and well reheased) little story idea, but surely not anything that's going to have a lasting impact.

20 years ago this week, D.C. killed Superman and it made (real) world news.

He got better.

5 years ago, Marvel killed Captain America and it made (real) world news.

He got better.

All of these "events" are jokes in the long term.

In the short term there's money to be made selling to people who don't understand the long term.

I won't be buying any, now or ever. :P
