Marvel Comics has announced a Spider-Girl tie-in for its 'Spider Island' event.
The three-issue Spider-Island: The Amazing Spider-Girl will be written by Paul Tobin (Spider-Girl) and illustrated by Pepe Larraz.
The miniseries will tie into the Spider-Man storyline which sees the inhabitants of Manhattan begin to exhibit the same powers as Peter Parker.
"It's a very different Spider-Girl that readers will encounter in the pages of Spider-Island: The Amazing Spider-Girl, as the strange outbreak of spider-powers infects her as well... but in very surprising ways," said Tobin.
"And when the Society of the Wasp declares full scale war on the new 'army' of the spider-powered, Spider-Girl surprisingly finds herself aligned with the Kingpin and Hobgoblin. Even more surprisingly she finds that, maybe... that's where she most belongs."
The Anya Corazon-starring Spider-Girl ongoing series will be ending in June. The new miniseries will debut in August.
The 'Spider-Island' storyline will begin in Dan Slott and Humberto Ramos's Amazing Spider-Man #666.
