Kraven is back. Not from the dead (just yet) but writer Marc Guggenheim introduces the Hunter's heir apparent in a three-issue arc of "Amazing Spider-Man" this July in #565-567.

Sounds good!
I'm just happy that they aren't reviving the old Kraven. Leave him dead.

I agree completely with what he says about Spidey's female Rogues' Gallery (or lack, thereof). And Fraction's arc in Punisher War Journal aside, I haven't thought much of the new Kravens.

She looks pretty good. I'm glad Marvel's been creating some new female villains.

. . . and something piques my interest into BND. Will my boycott last?

I'm looking forward to this story.

To me I think that this is a good idea as the Marvel U kind of needs more female villains, but the uses of an old codename of a Spidey foe may make it difficult to sell since there are other Kraven the Hunters in the Marvel U.

When i heard about a female Kraven, I pictured something alot more Jill of the Jungle than the outfit she's wearing there. Intresting look they designed for her.

At least Marvel didn´t bring Kraven back like they did with Harry. I liked the new Kraven and she looks like a real bad-ass, phil Jimenez did an excellent job disigning her and I can´t wait to read the story, It´ ll be amazing.

I don't mean to be a pill here, but does this remind anyone else of the female Doc Ock? I mean, haven't they done this before?

I don't think that'll ever happen. Kraven's a great character; it'd be hard to create a character to take his place who wouldn't come off as a second-rate imitation. Originally Posted by BlackToe
