Marvel is celebrating the 50th anniversary of the beloved series of speculative stories… Marvel this summer will be celebrating the 50th anniversary of the original What If? series — it debuted in November 1976 — with a series of one-shots spread throughout the Marvel Universe. One of them immediately jumped out at me: What If…? Spider-Man #1, written by Kraven Last Hunt’s J.M. DeMatteis, which asks the question, “What If… Kraven Survived His Last Hunt?” The ish, with art by Yildiray Cinar — replacing Mike Zeck and Bob McLeod, who handled those duties for the original 1987 Spider-Man crossover classic — is due July 29. The cover will be by Lucas Werneck. Prices have not been set yet, but here’s the complete lineup: — MORE — DC and MARVEL Team Up to Re-Release Entire JLA/AVENGERS Series as Facsimile Editions.
