The X-Men are still recovering from A.X.E. and Spider-Man just finished dealing with Hobgoblin. So what does Marvel do? Throw them in a crossover to deal with the Goblin Queen and Chasm.
The worlds of Spider-Man and the X-Men collide! Marvel’s two most famous and famously wronged clones—Chasm (Ben Reilly) and the Goblin Queen (Madelyne Pryor)—are back, they’ve had enough of being second best and they’re going to claim what’s rightfully theirs! The sun is setting, and it’s going to be a long night for Spidey and the X-Men.
The series spans Amazing Spider-Man and a few other regular books, but has a lot of one-shots and mini-series that don’t impact their regular series; there are specific X-Men issues rather than being a part of the regular X-Men book.
To prepare for the event, the following books could be read for setup:
This is the full crossover; there are parts that deal with Spider-Man and parts that deal with the X-Men, while the main book does involve both.
*The Free Comic Book Day issue is not required reading, but teases what’s going to happen in the event.
**Amazing Spider-Man #14 is a prelude to the actual event
***The main storyline; all the other books are tie in books.
I’ll be back soon with a Krakoa Era X-Men reading list.
