Thanks to Marvel.com, we have a few more details about what to expect from this December's Amazing Spider-Man #700. According to writer Dan Slott, each of the issues leading up to the landmark isnstalment will be "a puzzle piece" to the story, with Avenging Spider-Man #15.1 reflecting the events of #700. For those worried that Marvel will kill off Peter Parker, there were seemingly no assurances made that that won't be happening, but "2013's gonna be a big year for Spider-Man," Axel Alonso told those in attendance. Worryingly, there was more talk of fans hating Dan Slott once they've read the issue, and it was revealed that the events of the issue will reflect why exactly he's sporting a new costume in Joe Quesada's Marvel NOW! promo image. It was also announced that this January will see the release of Morbius: The Living Vampire, a new ongoing series coming out in January written by Joe Keatinge and with art by Rich Elson.

The second one would be cooler if the words made up the skyscrapers, rather than fill them in.
MutantEquality - 8/25/2012, 11:55 AM
1st one looks like a "Where's Waldo" puzzle
paperboy48 - 8/25/2012, 11:57 AM
This really worries me... Spidey's new costume has circles on the eyes, which look... robotic...
UltimateSpiderman - 8/25/2012, 12:12 PM
Does anyone actually like Morbius?
ATrueHero1987 - 8/25/2012, 12:30 PM
I wonder if this new Morbius series is in response to I vampire by DC(which is getting great reviews by the way)?
kackbratze - 8/25/2012, 12:31 PM
Nowadays they are making a series of everything... it will be probably short-living anyway.
0ptimusCrime - 8/25/2012, 12:33 PM
1st Pic is awesome,
Alex909 - 8/25/2012, 12:34 PM
Doubt it will be but I really hope this is the end of Slott's run. His dialogue is so stilted and cheesy it's a chore to get through.
IIIAdamantiumIII - 8/25/2012, 12:45 PM
blah i hate Morbius
DamoC - 8/25/2012, 12:52 PM
That first cover is amazing (sorry) can't wait to get my hands on that issue and find out why Dan Slott thinks he'll have to go into hiding.
ellispart3 - 8/25/2012, 1:12 PM
second cover is effing amazing, great balance and composition. and the names in the buildings are a great touch.
jimoakley666 - 8/25/2012, 3:25 PM
The top two are amazing.
HannibalKing - 8/25/2012, 3:28 PM
Chalk me down for that Morbius on-going. Unless it's $3.99 an issue.
HannibalKing - 8/25/2012, 3:28 PM
The only reason I think Dan would go into hiding is if #700 was another silent comic like Marvel did some years ago.....
ellispart3 - 8/25/2012, 4:05 PM
@HannibalKing
are you talking about that 'nuff said run through out marvel 8 or so years ago? i loved that!
CaptainObvious - 8/25/2012, 4:17 PM
Spidey's costume better stay red and blue.
Caveboy0 - 8/25/2012, 5:19 PM
i actually like morbius and Slott has really sold him well so i wouldn't mind picking up a series about him.
Namor - 8/25/2012, 7:03 PM
i like morbius...
ATrueHero1987 - 8/25/2012, 7:38 PM
@CaptainObvious Amen. I'm up for change but somethings they should just leave alone.
Asterisk - 8/25/2012, 7:57 PM
I hope the issue has something to do with Venom.
AUSSYACE - 8/25/2012, 8:53 PM
Why bring in a Vampire to celebrate such a milestone isssue...

Marvel has lost the plot...
ThatOneDude - 8/25/2012, 9:13 PM
I never liked that [frick]ing vampire... Least favorite plot of the animated series
SCURVYDOG619 - 8/26/2012, 1:27 AM
Either Alpha becoming Spidey,Aunt May dying, JONAH dying,or Spidey being revealed as a Skrull would probably be good reasons for Dan Slott to barricade his doors...lol
musashi - 8/26/2012, 2:16 AM
Awesome covers!
skidz - 8/26/2012, 3:15 AM
I haven't seen Morbious in anything ongoing since the shortlived Midnight Sons.
marvel72 - 8/26/2012, 4:04 AM
that first image is f*ckin amazing. :P

morbius ongoing series could be good if they get the right creative team on it.
MarvelSpidey - 8/27/2012, 10:18 AM
AMAZING PICS!! (By the lack of searching another word...)
