Marvel is pleased to present your first look at Superior Spider-Man #8 from the chart-topping creative team behind Amazing Spider-Man #700, writer Dan Slott and artist Humberto Ramos. This might just be the beginning of the end for Doc Ock—or is it? With Peter Parker fighting full-force to regain control over his own body, will he be able to save Cardiac and redeem himself in the eyes of the Avengers? An internal war between good and evil hangs in the balance, and it all leads up to one unbelievably heartbreaking surprise – only in Superior Spider-Man #8!

I still don't understand what that is on Spider-Man's back.

Please for the love of God get Ock outta Pete's body!!!!
Rhino4508 - 3/21/2013, 1:28 PM
I wish they would stop prolonging this and just bring Peter back.
MARVELPSYCHO79 - 3/21/2013, 1:29 PM
CARDIAC!!!
shawnb - 3/21/2013, 1:31 PM
LOL, it shouldn't take all of the Avengers. Thor is enough.
RadicalDuck - 3/21/2013, 1:31 PM
I doubt that they'll end it this early on...didn't Slott or some head guy at Marvel say he'd possess Peter for at least a year? Though I must say, I hope he keeps his costume similar when he takes his body back...get rid of the claws and stupid toes but keep the darker colours and HUD lenses.
ParisSun - 3/21/2013, 1:31 PM
Is every character in the Marvel Universe an Avenger?
ToTheManInTheColdSweat - 3/21/2013, 1:35 PM
humbertos art is always shit. smh
marvel72 - 3/21/2013, 1:40 PM
does it really take all those avengers to take down spidey,wolverine & thor could of done it on their own.
0ptimusCrime - 3/21/2013, 1:40 PM
Coloring is awesome
Nerdman3000 - 3/21/2013, 1:41 PM
When will this travesty finally end?! Peter come back already. The Superior Spider-Man sucks!
ACira - 3/21/2013, 1:42 PM
The more I see this art, the less I like it.
RadicalDuck - 3/21/2013, 1:43 PM
@OptimusCrime - agreed!
RPD - 3/21/2013, 1:46 PM
Looks great, but I don't read Spiderman...
CaptainObvious - 3/21/2013, 1:52 PM
It's just Spider-Man, guys. You don't need all The Avengers to take him down. However, as long as Spider-Ock is getting the shit kicked out of him, it's for the greater good.

Did anyone read last year's ends of the earth storyline? You actually do need the Avengers to take out Doc Ock, because he took them out of commission then, and that was when he was frail and dying. Not only does he have his genius, he has all of Peter Parker's spider powers and gadgets. He's a master planner, and I'm assuming he had planned for something like this at some point.
TheSonicScrew - 3/21/2013, 2:05 PM
Out of curiousity, have any of you bashing this whole thing actually read it? It's great series! And c'mon, OBVIOUSLY it's not permanent, so just go along for the ride!
TheArachnidAvenger - 3/21/2013, 2:12 PM
Am I the only one it's wrong of the avengers to kick spock off the avengers? I'm not a fan of spock but they're gonna kick him off cause his of ruthless attitude yet, they keep wolverine who kills people, and they accepted back wonderman who tried to kill the avengers.
Alfredo27 - 3/21/2013, 2:15 PM
I think Superior Spider man has been very refreshing and almost as funny as a Deadpool comic.
TheGodKiller - 3/21/2013, 2:24 PM
@TheSonicScrew,
apparently there is a whole lot of people who don't like the ride. At least you like it. I personally think this was a very stupid idea.
Blarcade - 3/21/2013, 2:33 PM
He's not the only one, Superior and Avenging are two of my favorite on going series right now.
Hetzer - 3/21/2013, 2:41 PM
one of best Spider-man art, Ramos is amazing. i love it! also Superior is not bad, the story is really smart.
Charlie2094 - 3/21/2013, 2:43 PM
Superior is also one of my FAVOURITE current comic runs. It's very interesting and fun, and unique. I'm a big Spider-Man fan, 'Blue' is one of my favourite novels, but this is so different and refreshing I'm really enjoying. Parker WILL be back, so just enjoy this whilst it lasts and give it a chance, which I doubt many have done.
2Challa - 3/21/2013, 2:46 PM
Looks like the Avengers never heard of friendly fire. When I see panels like that I think what happened to all of the Avengers training and individual skills.
LoudLon - 3/21/2013, 2:56 PM
@marvel72 -- on various occasions Spider-Man has taken down the entire Fantastic Four, entire teams of X-Men (including Wolverine, who he once disposed of with a simple, lazy back-handed swat), the Sinister Six, the Wrecking Crew and many others. Yeah. It would take an entire team of Avengers to take him down.

As for the topic at hand, I can't stand this dude's artwork. This is a comic book, not a Gorillaz video. Really makes me long for the days of Ron Frenz, Paul Neary, John Byrne, Walt Simonson...
1geekygurl - 3/21/2013, 3:03 PM
Dan Slutt has made these comics so bad, I cant even bring myself to Torrent them.
LordOfTheZegaRealm - 3/21/2013, 3:06 PM
Now spideyock said something he shouldn't have said and pissed everybody off.
Superguy15 - 3/21/2013, 3:17 PM
Can't wait for Peter to return...
DeBlawqPantur - 3/21/2013, 3:48 PM
@TheSonicScrew
I read the first 5 issues of Superior Spider-man after seeing some praise for the series among the posters on this site. I was pleasantly surprised. It's a pretty fun comic.

For those who haven't read it, don't bash it without at least reading the first 3 or 4 issue. If you still hate it, then fine, but don't hate on it without checking it out.
Geektality - 3/21/2013, 4:21 PM
Yet another MARVEL event comic where the heroes fight EACH-OTHER instead of fighting the villain.
Geektality - 3/21/2013, 4:22 PM
Also, the artwork is ugly. In one panel, Peter doesn't even have a mouth! Granted, most good artist nowadays are at DC. Just sayin'.
DarthVenom - 3/21/2013, 4:25 PM
Great art work
DarthVenom - 3/21/2013, 4:27 PM
@Geektality Ahhh shut it
Hetzer - 3/21/2013, 4:36 PM
@Geektality
they fight villain here...
art is unique, interesting and amazing, much better than generic DC lazy art.
Just sayin'.
marvel72 - 3/21/2013, 5:14 PM
@ LoudLon

yeah you're correct,i've spider-man take on colossus/juggernaut combo during last years avengers vs x-men event "AvX Vs issue 2" spidey throws everything at him & colossus/juggernaut just brushes it off.

so thor GOD of thunder could defeat spider-man on his own,no need for the whole avengers team.

that was my point.
AdamX - 3/21/2013, 5:51 PM
The way Spider-Ock lost his S#!% in the previous issue was hilarious.
Oxbow - 3/21/2013, 6:17 PM
You don't need all those Avengers to beat him...It's just that they all wanted to beat him. What a douche!

LittleDanglyThing - 3/21/2013, 6:28 PM
Superior Spiderman is great but haters gonna hate. (I'm not a rapper)
Shadowmaster35 - 3/21/2013, 7:42 PM
Welp maybe I can start reading Spider books again.
TonyChu - 3/21/2013, 8:18 PM
Wow they pulled out Cardiac for this series. I am impressed.
damntree - 3/21/2013, 8:37 PM
Thor is the only Avenger shown there who could beat Spidey; the rest of them would get trounced.
Bark4Soul - 3/21/2013, 8:53 PM
Ramos is so dope, i dont get those who hate him, he has a dope style.
niknik - 3/21/2013, 9:27 PM
Yeah, like he smokes a lot of it before he starts drawing, and you have to have smoked a lot of it to like that $hitty art. It's for dopes alright.
niknik - 3/21/2013, 9:29 PM
Speaking of Dope, Thor and Captain America's new costumes are dopey looking as well.
Jefferys - 3/21/2013, 9:53 PM
Wow… Can Spider-woman's butt cheeks be any bigger?

Other than that, I'm excited. Spock should really make Spidey go back to having nothing.
BenderDickCumPatch - 3/21/2013, 9:59 PM
Keen.
Shits finally getting heated on Superior.
KNIGHT3000 - 3/22/2013, 9:44 AM
To be honest if Thor wasn't there, Spider-Man could kick the shit out of everyone there... Otto is smart, but he isn't physical like Peter was... When Parker returns to all his new toys He indeed will be Superior
Spideyforevr - 4/22/2013, 2:05 PM
Avengers when you get ock out of petes body, live peter alone for five minutes to exact revenge
