About the series
In 2010, Marvel launched Spider-Man: The Gauntlet, a five-issue series that pits Peter Parker against a relentless barrage of classic foes, with writers Fred Van Lente, Dan Slott, and Roger Stern steering the action alongside artists Barry Kitson, Francis Portela, and Jefte Palo. The story deepens the tension in Spider-Man’s life, bringing Felicia Hardy’s Black Cat and the Rhino’s Aleksei Sytsevich into a high-stakes conflict that tests his bonds with Carlie Cooper and his own resilience. This compact run stands as a key chapter in the broader Spider-Man mythos, showcasing how even a brief, focused arc can reshape a hero’s world.
