In 2018, a new volume of The Superior Spider-Man debuted as part of the "Spider-Geddon" with 12 new issues written by Gage. It served as a continuation of the history of Otto Octavius after the events of " Go Down Swinging", and also serves as a tie-in to the " Spider-Geddon" storyline. In July 2018, a one-shot titled The Superior Octopus was announced. In May 2013, it was announced that the series would return for two additional issues (32 and 33) that fill a gap left by an earlier storyline, as well as lead into the " Spider-Verse" storyline. The series ended with issue 31, which determined the fate of Parker's mind, and was followed up by a relaunch of The Amazing Spider-Man series, with the new volume depicting Parker regaining his body and the Spider-Man mantle. The Superior Spider-Man also crosses over into other Spider-Man titles such as Avenging Spider-Man and its superseding title Superior Spider-Man Team-Up, in addition to other Marvel titles. The series is a continuation of the long running series The Amazing Spider-Man, which concluded with The Amazing Spider-Man #700.


However, Octavius becomes inspired by Parker's dying wish to have a new Spider-Man protect New York City, and decides to take on the mantle himself, becoming a better Spider-Man than Parker ever was, and a better man than Octavius. The series continues from the events of the 2012 storyline " Dying Wish", in which Peter Parker is killed off and replaced with his nemesis Otto Octavius, who swapped consciousnesses with Parker and left him to die in his decaying body to ensure his own survival. It was written by Dan Slott, with artwork by Ryan Stegman, Humberto Ramos, and Giuseppe Camuncoli. The Superior Spider-Man is a superhero comic book series published by Marvel Comics that ran between January 2013 and September 2014.
