Amazing Spider-Man #1000 Release Date and Story Details

Written by Joe Kelly, with anniversary stories from an all-star lineup — Noah Hawley (making his shocking comic book debut), Frank Miller, Dan Slott, J.M. DeMatteis, Brian Michael Bendis, Larry Lieber, and more — Amazing Spider-Man #1000 is both a love letter to a thousand issues of Spider-Man history and a launchpad into Spider-Man's next chapter.

Pepe Larraz and Joe Kelly's ongoing Amazing Spider-Man run collides with Spider-Man's greatest fear yet: RAVAGE, a new villain whose history-shattering power forces Peter Parker to question everything he thought he knew about his own legacy.

Alongside the main event, fan-favorite creative teams reunite for standalone Amazing Spider-Man anniversary stories, including Dan Slott and Marcos Martín revisiting the night Uncle Ben died, and J.M. DeMatteis and Humberto Ramos teaming up for "Requiem of a Goblin."

Why Amazing Spider-Man #1000 Matters

Comics don't hit issue #1000 very often. When they do, publishers pull out every stop — and Marvel is doing exactly that here, blending nostalgia (Steve Ditko homages, the '67 cartoon, Uncle Ben's death revisited) with the future (Ravage's debut, Noah Hawley's comics debut, a new phase of Joe Kelly and Pepe Larraz's Amazing Spider-Man run).

Whether you're collecting Amazing Spider-Man #1000 for the art, the history, or the story, this is the kind of release that doesn't come around twice.
