Description
Avenging Spider-Man 15.1
Art by Paco Medina
Marvel Comics - December 26, 2012

This is a big one! This is the big reveal and first full look at Superior Spider-Man in his superior costume with all the subtle updates that Otto-Peter made to the suit. The inks and buildings were done digitally. I'm thrilled to connect this page with the page before with Otto-Peter suiting up (HERE)!

This issue was released the same week as Amazing Spider-Man #700 and led directly into Superior Spider-Man #1. Superior Spider-Man also appeared on the last page of ASM #700 in the new "Superior" costume (see image below).

I loved this issue-ending line from writer Chris Yost, "Doctor Octopus is dead. Long live the superior Spider-Man!" The perfect lead into the Superior Spider-Man series.

Awesome George.  Fits perfectly in your collection.  I really enjoyed the superior spidey run. Fun to see hid interactions with the xmen and peters with the sin six. Congrats

Much appreciated, John! I enjoyed this run as well. It was fun to see Spidey with a bit of a villainous edge.

Thank you! Paco did such a wonderful job bringing the new suit to life in these last two pages of the issue.

I agree! And I actually prefer this version of the superior costume over the second version even though I like both a lot.

Never saw you as a "Need to get the 1st appearance if I can!" kind of guy, George, but congratulations, it's really cool!

I've picked up a few over the years but mostly modern firsts. I have an appreciation for them especially if it was a big or fun reveal from a book I was actively reading. When it's done well it's a special moment when we get that new character or new costume reveal.

I mean, I automatically thought that :)

Seriously, man, LOVE it.  Great pose, and love that touch of the extended clawed toe on the left foot.  Helluva way to introduce the Superior Spider-Man, and launch him into his new series!  Big congrats, brother!
