Dan Slott has built a loyal fan base by combining old-school fun
with stories and characterizations friendly to new readers.
Following his run on She-Hulk, Slott moved into the upper echelon
of Marvel writers, launching Avengers- The Initiative and taking
the reins on Mighty Avengers from Brian Michael Bendis. When Marvel
gave Spider-Man a fresh start in 2008, Slott was one of several
rotating writers on the thrice-monthly Amazing Spider-Man. Slott
became the writer most closely identified with the web-slinger's
"Brand New Day" era, and the title hit the "Big Time" when he took
over as full-time writer for a decade-long run filled with stunning
adventures. Slott has also turned his talents to other iconic
Marvel heroes, including soaring the spaceways with Silver Surfer;
helming Tony Stark- Iron Man toward Iron Man 2020; and
masterminding the glorious return of Fantastic Four, leading to his
long-awaited "Reckoning War."

recognized for his artwork on Sonic the Comic. His pairing with
writer Kieron Gillen on Thor led to a subsequent collaboration on
Journey into Mystery.
Artist Humberto Ramos made his American comics debut in 1994 with

moved to Marvel, becoming one of the most recognizable and
innovative talents in comics. Seamlessly blending both Eastern and
Western styles, the artist's artist has worked on many of Marvel's
most iconic characters - including Spider-Man, Wolverine and the
X-Men - in addition to a run on the fan-favorite Runaways. In
