J.J. Abrams Spider-Man Trailer Teases Villain, More

Back in June saw Marvel Comics announce that J.J. Abrams and his son are writing a Spider-Man comic book, and now a promo trailer for the series has been released featuring a look at the art, including the villain Cadaverous and more.

“J.J. Abrams takes the webbed wonder to new heights when he and his son Henry partner with legendary spider-artist Sara Pichelli for a story like you’ve never seen before! SPIDER-MAN #1 arrives September 18 in comic shops and the Marvel Comics App!” the video description teases.

“The thing I am most excited about in this book is getting to tell a story that is in this format this is new to me,” J.J. Abrams said.

Henry Abrams added, “Spider-Man, in general, has been one of the most interesting superhero characters to me. When he gets stronger, his problems get bigger. So I think what was a large focus on our series was him as a person and not just him as a mask. How does he deal with these real issues? It’s been a pleasure exploring that.”

Marvel Comics Editor Nick Lowe teases the villain.

“He is one of the most terrifying Spider-Man villains of all time,” Lowe said. “And that is saying something. Spider-Man has faced the Green Goblin, Carnage, Venom, and Cadaverous might be even scarier and a little bit grosser than any of them. His minions are terrifying and they do some horrible things to our main characters very early on in the story.”
