Dark Reign: Sinister Spider-Man #1

DARK REIGN TIE-IN He ain't friendly and this ain't your neighborhood! Yes, Mac Gargan, America's favorite sociopath-turned-symbiote-host-turned-hero-hunter now takes the spotlight as Norman Osborn's sinister Spider-Man. With the Dark Reign-a-raining, the lives of our mighty marvel heroes are being destroyed left and right - but for guys like Mac, the world is their oyster and the chef's covering the bill. Mac's a beloved hero. Women love him, men want to be him and nobody wants to run into him after midnight - because the symbiote is still pretty darn hungry... By Brian Reed (Ms. Marvel) and Barry Kitson (Amazing Spider-Man).
