Described as a “climactic chapter in the wall crawler’s years-long conflict with the Goblin-masked madman,” this issue is framed as a “colossal showdown” by Marvel.

“Spidey has faced his share of hardships, but even the worst things that have happened to him are just a prelude to what transpires here,” the issue’s solicitation reads (opens in new tab).

Series writer Nick Spencer will have a lead story with artist Ryan Ottley, followed by other stories from Bachalo, Humberto Ramos, Aaron Kuder, Tradd Moore, Kurt Busiek, and Saladin Ahmed.

“This is maybe the most action-packed and harrowing issue of Amazing Spider-Man ever!” Marvel’s executive editor Nick Lowe said previously about the issue. “There are so many twists and turns and Spidey has never had his back up against a wall like this before.”

Amazing Spider-Man #850 goes on sale September 22.
