Spider-Man has transformed into a six-armed Man-Spider, a Lizard, and a Hulk (oh my!), but 2022's Edge of Spider-Verse unearthed the prehistoric Pter Ptarker from the Cretaceous age: Spider-Rex. One of the new Spider-heroes introduced in the lead-up to Dan Slott and Mark Bagley's Spider-Man series, the spectacular Spider-Rex returns in the four-issue Edge of Spider-Verse (2023) to battle his most ferocious foe yet: Venomsaurus, who becomes an inky-black bad guy after falling into a "black spot" of tar. Below, see the first look at Spider-Rex's return in May's Edge of Spider-Verse #1 from the Spider-Woman team of writer Karla Pacheco and artist Pere Perez.
Along with Spider-Rex, new preview pages from Edge of Spider-Verse #1 tease prehistoric versions of Venom, Mary Jane Watson (the raptor Mary Jane Watsaur), and Kraven the Hunter (Kravertooth the Hunter), plus the noir-styled case of the mysterious Spider-Killer from Zander Cannon.
