In 'Spider-Man 2099: Dark Genesis' Carnage Makes His Return in Limited Series

It seems that Marvel has every intention of continuing the universe set with Spider-Man 2099: Exodus. The company has just celebrated its 30th anniversary regarding the first-ever 2099 series, but by all means, surprisingly seems to be interested in moving forward with more stories.

Kicking off this new era of corporate-futuristic dystopia this May, writer Steve Orlando returns with Spider-Man 2099: Dark Genesis, a follow-up five-issue series that will follow Spider-Man 2099 (Miguel O’Hara). Joining Orlando this time will be artist Justin Mason, known for his recent eye-catching work in Spider-Punk.

Taking a page out of Maximum Carnage, for this new storyline of Spider-Man 2099, Nueva York must battle a futuristic new Carnage; luckily, with the help of a group of 2099 superheroes, with Punisher 2099, Daredevil 2099, and Blade 2099, who are all planning to make an appearance. But does this dystopia even want to be saved? Spider-Man 2099: Dark Genesis will answer this question with weekly releases all throughout May.

“It’s great to be back to 2099 – and not just build on EXODUS but also the past three incredible decades of pioneering, innovative cyberpunk work done in the world of 2099,” Orlando said in Marvel’s most recent press release. “When we last saw Spider-Man 2099, he was decimating the black card elite and upending social order to help the neighborhood. Help everyday people. But even he didn’t expect how his actions would spark an outburst of vengeance and blood — with a monster at its head. I’m so excited to be back and to be working with Justin Mason! Together, we’ve got even more 2099 classics coming your way, along with new debuts, of course! Earth-2099 is set for Carnage like none it’s ever seen.”
