Jake Wyatt Exits Sp//dr-Focused Edge of Spider-Geddon #2


The upcoming Spider-Geddon event from Marvel will bring together all the remaining Spider-heroes, but one of them, the mech-based hero known as Sp//dr, won’t see their original creator come along for the ride. Jake Wyatt, the artist who originally created Peni Parker and her Sp//dr mech, was slated to do the art for Edge of Spider-Geddon #2 (which focuses on the duo), but now will be replaced by Alberto Albuquerque.

Created in 2014 for the Edge of Spider-Verse event by Wyatt and Gerard Way, Sp//dr is actually Peni Parker, a young woman adopted by Uncle Ben and Aunt May after her parents died. Hailing from Earth-14512, Peni controls the Sp//dr mech powered by a psychic connection and a radioactive spider. Peni managed to be one of the many Spider-heroes who survived the events of Spider-Verse, and her Spider-Geddon focused issue is a response to fans demanding her return in comics. She’ll be one of several Spider-heroes making her big screen debut with the upcoming Into the Spider-Verse animated film, in which she will be voiced by Kimiko Glenn.
