It’s almost time for a brand new volume of Marvel’s Amazing Spider-Man, and in the first issue: Spidey takes on the breakout character from the hit movie Kraven the Hunter, The Rhino.

Written by Joe Kelly, with art by Pepe Larraz and John Romita Jr., alongside colors by Marte Gracia and letters by VC’s Joe Caramagna, the pages depict your classic Rhino versus Spider-Man brawl… With a twist. Because it sure looks like the Rhino is dead at the end of this preview.

“Spider-Man was probably the first Marvel comic I read when I was a kid,” Larraz said via press release. “It is a privilege for me to be able to draw this character, even more so that it’s guided by Joe Kelly’s hand. I’m a huge fan of Joe’s writing, from the way he builds characters to his dialogue, humor, and sense of action. Joe is great at everything he does, but the most important thing for me is that his stories matter, touching upon themes that are always relevant.”

Per the release, after the fight reaches “a tragic end, Spidey will dive headfirst into a dangerous conspiracy. Someone has been amping up his villains—making them meaner, more aggressive and increasingly dangerous to everyone around them—and Spidey is next!”
