Not that I'm complaining, but DAMN is Matt Kindt getting a lot of work. I mean, factor his Spider-Man mini in October, then he's also going to be writing Justice League of America, Suicide Squad, and Forever Evil: A.R.G.U.S. Man's like a flippin' workhorse.

Anyway, definitely looking forward to Spidey. Haven't read anything with Revel, but his X-Men sounds good. While Hulk is a character I can never really seem to get into on a regular, solo basis, the way Keatinge's talking about might keep me going for a four-part mini.

Doesn't he also have a creator-owned series?

I've read the entirety of the Marvel Knights 4 series. It was FANTASTIC. It did what comics have been trying to do for years and utterly failing at: Telling an adult story. And they didn't do it with gore and shock deaths, they did it by having the characters be mature and adult.

Also: It made the Salem Seven scary.

Seriously, if you haven't read 4 yet, go do it now.

MK 4 is still one of my favorite runs. They actually let Johnny mature and I loved what they did with him.

Spidey fighting 99 villains just screams for a Jay-Z joke.

A Jay-Z joke, you say?

These all look pretty cool, though I'm not sure I'll be interested in seeingt he X-Men fight angry villagers for most of a series if that's what the series is to be.

This is a great use of the imprint though, giving less mainstream creators a chance to play with the big characters is a great idea.
