Spider-Man has transformed into a six-armed Man-Spider, a Lizard, and a Hulk (oh my!), but 2022's Edge of Spider-Verse unearthed the prehistoric Pter Ptarker from the Cretaceous age: Spider-Rex. One of the new Spider-heroes introduced in the lead-up to Dan Slott and Mark Bagley's Spider-Man series, the spectacular Spider-Rex returns in the four-issue Edge of Spider-Verse (2023) to battle his most ferocious foe yet: Venomsaurus, who becomes an inky-black bad guy after falling into a "black spot" of tar. Below, see the first look at Spider-Rex's return in May's Edge of Spider-Verse #1 from the Spider-Woman team of writer Karla Pacheco and artist Pere Perez.
