Nick Spencer will close out his epic run on Amazing Spider-Man this September! Since taking over the title, the acclaimed writer has crafted a Spider-Man saga for the ages, taking not only Peter Parker but his beloved supporting cast and iconic rogues gallery on radical new journeys. With numerous memorable storylines under his belt, Spencer will end his redefining work on the Spider-Man mythos in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #74. The milestone 875th issue of the title, AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #74 will be an incredible 80-page blockbuster issue complete with artwork from some of the artists that have contributed to this landmark run: Patrick Gleason, Mark Bagley, and Marcelo Ferreira and more! The culmination of over three years� worth of thrilling storylines, this climactic finale will be full of surprising developments that will launch Peter Parker into his next high-flying era.

�The last three years of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN have been Nick Spencer�s love letter to his favorite character and comic,� Editor Nick Lowe said. �He may be the biggest Spidey fan ever as evidenced from the fact that he read every Spider-Man comic in preparation for his landmark run.

�From #1 all the way through #74, Nick (along with Ryan Ottley, Humberto Ramos, Patrick Gleason, Mark Bagley and more) has gone huge with more villains, more supporting characters, and more punishment for Peter Parker. From �Hunted� to �Sins Rising� to �Last Remains� to �King�s Ransom� to �Sinister War� and now to the ultra-sized finale �What Cost Victory� Nick will bring his web-slinging rollercoaster ride back into the station in a way you�ll never forget!�

I think Chip Zdarsky is going to write Spider-Man, who is literally one of the best picks they can do right now

Given he has written a number of spin-offs, I could see it happeneing

Spencer's run was a breath of fresh air and I really enjoyed his use of different villains and supporting characters from Spider-Man's mythos. I hope that the next writer at least keeps some of that foundation.

Hopefully Slott doesn't get the title again.

Not too surprising to see this shake up, seems to be happening with a lot of the big titles, but I'm sorry to see it ending. I won't say that the last couple arcs have resonated as much with me, but I've been really happy to see a return to basics approach for Spidey from Nick Spencer, of course with some fresh twists. For me, this run has been probably the best thing to come out of ASM since Spider-Island, though there were some highpoints that followed, but not a ton.

Nick had a nice run of the book. Too bad he had to follow slott run of the book.
