Why Naut? Spider-Man Becomes The Juggernaut In March’s ‘Amazing Spider-Man’

In March 2025, Marvel is releasing the concluding chapters of the currently running “8 Deaths of Spider-Man.” And because why naut, Spider-man will turn into the Juggernaut in the closing issues.

Written by Joe Kelly with art by Ed McGuinness, Amazing Spider-Man #69 and #70 find Spider-Man beating all of the champions of Cyttorak… But he may have just become one himself.

If that’s confusing to you, Cyttorak is the evil god who Spider-Man has been tasked to defeat by Doctor Doom. Each time Spider-Man battles one of the Scions of Cyttorak, he dies — leading to the “8 Deaths” of the title.

But per PR from Marvel, “Spider-Man used the last of the extra lives and is done. True death. In AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #69, things have never looked more bleak as the X-Men fight among themselves, and Doctors Doom and Strange reunite—only to find the situation unwinnable. In AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #70, ENTER THE SPIDER-NAUT! But who is this unstoppable webbed-wonder?! And does he represent the world’s last hope or Cyttorak’s ultimate victory?”

You can check out covers to Amazing Spider-Man #69 by McGuinness, and Amazing Spider-Man #70 by McGuinness and Björn Barends, below. Issue #69 hits stores on March 12, 2025, and issue #70 hits stores on March 26, 2025.
