Spider-Island: The Amazing Spider-Girl #1

Spider-Girl launches her own three-issue limited series tied to the 2011 Spider-Island event, written by Paul Tobin with art by Pepe Larraz and colors by Andres Mossa. Patrick Zircher's cover puts the red-haired heroine front and center in her sleek black-and-white spider-suit, lunging toward the viewer with a chain trailing behind her against a bold crimson backdrop and a city skyline framed in the background. It's a confident, kinetic introduction to "Class Warfare" — and a great jumping-on point for fans of Marvel's web-spinning corner of 2011.
