JJ Abrams (And Son) To Write a new SPIDER-MAN Series
J. J. Abrams is adding another credit to his storied career. But how do you top newly minted media mogul (with a reported $500 million partnership in the works with WarnerMedia), Broadway producer (“Derren Brown: Secret") and film director (“Star Wars: The Rise of the Skywalker")?
Clearly, it is time to write a comic book.
And that is what Abrams — and his son Henry, who is 20 — are doing for Marvel Entertainment. They are introducing a new villain, Cadaverous, who will cause problems for Spider-Man, his alter-ego, Peter Parker, and his beloved Mary Jane Watson, in a five-part series arriving in September. The Abramses are writing, and the comic will be drawn by Sara Pichelli and colored by Dave Stewart.
Let’s be honest, this is more about Henry getting a gig than JJ.
Hope it’s good either way. Spider-Man’s my dude, so they better not fuck this up.
