Let’s start simple with SpiderX who asks, ” After the Venom arc what’s next and is Marquez back on art duty for the next arc?”
Bendis: Yes. Sara Pichelli is back for the Venom arc, and between her and David Marquez we’ve got two artists who have just decided to make this the most beautiful comic imaginable. It’s such a nice thing for the fans that every issue is better looking than the next. So for the next while, it’s all Sara and David. And I can not describe to you how awesome Justin Posner our colorist is. He makes it so seamless of a transition. The cinematography is always the same. He’s also doing “Guardians of the Galaxy,” and it’s something else.
But big things are happening in “Venom War” which includes the return of Gwen Stacy and Mary-Jane Watson as they jump in to help Miles deal with this craziness. Their knowledge of Peter Parker and the world he lived in is something Miles needs, and so they rush to help him. The end of the story will bring about a huge change to Miles’ life. This is a character-changing story and not just some Venom story. And after the story, we’re going to do a pretty bold time jump for the series. It’s a pretty big deal. I got to a place with “Ultimate Spider-Man” where we’re allowed to go a little crazy, and I’ve decided to do so — both with story status quo and in terms of not having to make every issue the next day.
