Peter David is set to take the helm on a brand new monthly on-going series, Spider-Man 2099. Events in The Superior Spider-Man have trapped Miguel O’Hara in the past. David will take us on a ride as Miguel becomes acclimated in this new environment and sets out to make change and avoid the problems of his future. Peter David is no stranger to the characeter from Marvel’s 2099 universe as he was Spider-Man 2099’s creator and long time scribe. Will Sliney will be joining David on art for the series.

Official announcement can be found after the jump!

It was only a week ago that Edge Of Time was announced, now we have a look at the (early) game in motion.

They’re going to need to tighten the graphics on level 3, but at the very least Beenox has trimmed the game to the 2 most important Spider-man variations from Shattered Dimensions: Amazing and 2099. The time line jumping details haven’t been discolosed, but that last shot (see the image to the left) shows that at least one portion of the game will have Miguel O’Hara and Peter Parker meeting (morbidly).

A new Spider-man game has been announced from Activision and developer Beenox called Edge of Time. This will feature both Spider-man and Spider-man 2099. The game centers around the death of Peter Parker, the Amazing Spider-man and how Spider-man 2099, Miguel O’Hara’s very own dark and catastrophic future is a direct result of Parker’s death. Gameplay will center on Miguel traveling back in time to cause change and moving forward in time to determine the effect. Its a neat concept that has led to many great stories in fiction, but could easily get very convoluted. Fortunately, the game is in good hands with Peter David writing the story. David is not only a comic book writing veteran, but he was also the long time scribe on the Spider-man 2099 series.

Attendees at WonderCon, this weekend, will apparently get the first look at the new game.

Consider me excited for more Spider-man 2099!
