What If? Spider-Man The Other #1

Jan 2007 · Marvel · 2.99 USD; 3.75 CAD
“What If Spider-Man Had Rejected the Spider? Poison Selves”

In *What If? Spider-Man The Other #1*, Peter Parker makes a fateful choice: he refuses the spider-creature’s offer to return to life, only to be reborn through a far more sinister force—the alien symbiote Venom, which twists him into a monstrous entity known as Poison. Written by Peter David and illustrated by Khoi Pham, with dynamic inks by Sandu Florea and vivid colors by Marte Gracia, this alternate origin explores a darker path where the web-slinger’s resurrection comes at a terrible cost. Mark Brooks’ striking cover captures the eerie transformation, setting the tone for a story where power and identity collide.
