NICK LOWE: THE AMAZING
SPIDER-MAN issue
is a tie-in to 2099,
and the 2099 one shots
are the coolest comics
ever because they
give you views of the future
you've never seen before.
And they will mess
with your head.
 We wanted to capture the
spirit of the original 2099
while doing a
completely new version
and a completely new take.
 What excites me
most about this
is putting Nick Spencer
and the rest of our writers
and the rest of our
editors in the same space
that the writers and
editors back in 1992
of the original 2099 did.
They wanted to
look at the future.
 You know, I was just so amazed
by what we got when we let
those writers loose
to do whatever they
want with these characters.
One of the great things
about the original 2099
was they brought in new
identities and new origins
to these characters.
And so we wanted
to build on that,
but there are still
some survivors out there
that are going to pick up.
NICK LOWE: Patrick Gleason,
he is going to make his Marvel
in the biggest way possible.
NICK SPENCER: I mean, Pat's
such a blast to work with.
You know, I've been working
with him on AMAZING SPIDER-MAN,
and it's so much fun.
And he's just one of the most
gifted storytellers in comics
and, you know, never
passes up an opportunity
to go bigger with a visual,
which is something I love
and just a great
deal to work with.
 The story is huge, and, like
a Spider-Man story should be,
also really small and about
Peter Parker and his life
and everything that's going on.
Doctor Doom's going to show up.
The Foreigner's going to show up
for you Spidey nerds out there.
I'm not even to tell you
some other characters
because they're surprises,
and I want you to enjoy
yourself while you read it.
 Well, like I said, it's a new
take but with a lot of hat tips
and nods to the original
and maybe more connective
tissue than is
apparent right away.
So if you're a fan of the
classic original 2099,
stick around.
There's going to be
some good stuff for you.
 This isn't an
alternate timeline.
This isn't a what if.
This is the future of
the Marvel universe.
