Following the madcap multiversal appeal of 2014’s Spider-Verse, Marvel is bringing back the cavalcade of alternate reality Spiders for 2018’s Spider-Geddon. You know, like Armageddon, except not at all a functional pun.
Fans of Spider-Punk (yes please), SP//dr, and the Spider-Man of Japan (YES) will find all their wild Spider-Man re-imaginings in full force. Spider-Geddon promises to unleash an army of alternate reality Spider-Men (and women!), who must band together in order to fend off their collective extinction. If you like “What Ifs,” or reimaginings of the classic Spider-Man origin story, or just love cross media variations of the Spider-Man character in a calvacade of cool costumes, Spider-Geddon is for you.
Like Spider-Verse before it, Spider-Geddon launches with an “Edge of Spider-Geddon” miniseries, which operates as a “Tales From Alternate Reality Spiders” series of one-off stories. Spider-Geddon proper then begins with Spider-Geddon issue #0, on through its conclusion. You can find a full reading order of collected editions and each individual issue below!

Just to avoid people spending a lot of money to read spider geddon #0 , only other last couple of pages tap into to the event,
SPOILERS
So this comic is the one that takes place immediately after the very end of the PS4 Spider-Man game and you can easily look up the last couple of pages and it’s where are a certain other spider person a notable one turns up to recruit the video game white chest spider Spider-Man into the event, and he goes through a portal and that’s that there’s only a couple of variants that under $10, if you want it because of there are video game connection then by all means but if you want it for the spider-geddon connection I would personally save your money in look up the last couple of pages.

Spider Force #3 takes place before Spider-Geddon #4

so I bought the 3 collected trades but I see that the reading order has stuff that are not in the collected trades. is this a mistake or?…
amit says
when will the full event reach unlimited?
Magni says
Looks like the last issue of Spider-Geddon (#5) came out mid-December so it won’t be on Unlimited until mid-June.
AK says
Is it worth it to get all the comics in the event?
John says
Shouldn’t Vault Of Spiders be around Spidergeddon #1?
SpideyStew says
Edge of Spidergeddon has events that take place during Spidergeddon issue 3?? Bit of a hashed together issue but enjoyed it none the less
Kyle says
I think this needs to be updated for the reading order of individual issues. When exactly does Superior Octopus take place? Why isn’t there a Spider-Geddon #0 on the list?
