REVIEW: Into Avengers Campus with WEB OF SPIDER-MAN #1!
In WEB of Spider-Man #1 by Kevin Shinick, Alberto Alburquerque, Rachelle Rosenberg, and Travis Lanham, with a main cover by one of my favorite creative teams of all time, Gurihiru, readers will be introduced to the Worldwide Engineering Brigade (that’s W.E.B.)! This group of super-smart kids plays into the story of the new Avengers Campus attraction, “WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure”!

WEB heads!
W.E.B. was put together by Tony Stark in order to give young geniuses the chance to share their new ideas with one another.

The W.E.B. members include Lunella Lafayette (who will soon be starring in the animated Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur series on Disney+), Onome (the daughter of one of Wakanda’s greatest engineers), and Harley Keener (who you may remember as the young friend who helped Stark after he crash landed in Tennessee in Iron Man 3).

And, there’s another member of W.E.B.: Doreen Green, the Unbeatable Squirrel-Girl! And never fear, Marvel Blog True Believers: this means you get to see Tippy Toe in this issue, too!

Plus, you will see lots of cool previews of Avengers Campus throughout this issue, including the building that houses the WEB SLINGERS attraction, the crane from which the stuntronic Spidey swings, and even a role for the Spider-Bots you can purchase during your visit.
