Well now -- ain't this a potentially interesting development? I wonder how all the people who think you have to have Peter Parker in the book for the book to be any good would react to this actually coming to pass?
EDIT: Of course, this may just be Spidey keeping up with the Jones', so to speak. I mean all the big characters seem to go through a time when they die off: Superman, Bruce Wayne, Steve Rogers -- Spidey's just staying fashionable, if this happens!
Observe, Orient, Decide, Act
Well, this will get some press for sure. As for me and probably most of us here at CBR, we know better than to think this will really mean anything and Peter will be back.
Hum Spider-man musical come out in January and Spider-man dies in February
Has to remember his suggestion for the traitor game

can you crack the code?
You know what? F--- it! Sure, let's kill him off too. Might as well at this point.
I've been waiting since issue 546 for the current Spider-Archie version of Spider-Man to die
I always consider these teasers to be like cliffhangers. You know the villain isn't going to feed our hero into his radioactive shark pit at the beginning of the next issue, but you are curious how the story goes. Just that death is not a definite. Same here.
After all, the recent hubbub about Batman proves that you can tell an entertaining story while at the same time knowing full well that death is not the real point of the comic, even if it's in the title.
I know Kevin Nichols through a guy that knows a gal. Small world!
If nihilism didn't take some delight in destruction one might suspect nihilists were an unnaturally morbid sort.

Wow. I like the tease. No idea what it means, but it's interesting coming right off of the first and second "Big Time" arc!

not really thrilled to see this coming up for spider-man, hopefully it's more like a metaphor instead of a thing where they kill him off and he cocoons himself to turn into something they'll never reference again...
ugh i dunno i just don't dig these types of storylines, i'm all for shaking up the status quo but s-man really hasn't even gotten settled in what he's dealing with now :/
THEN AGAIN, i've been proven wrong before! several times before. i've been proven wrong a lot. i'm not good at being right. so let's make this another one of those times.
