About the series
When Christos Gage took the reins of this 2019 Marvel series, he continued the saga of Otto Octavius—the former Doctor Octopus—operating as a superior, and far more ruthless, version of Spider-Man. With a rotating art team that included Mike Hawthorne, Lan Medina, and Phil Noto, the 12-issue run explored Otto’s unique brand of heroism, pitting his calculating mind against threats that tested his resolve and his very claim to the Spider-Man mantle. It’s a key chapter for fans of the character’s complex evolution, diving into what it means to be a hero when the man behind the mask is still a villain at heart.
