We are celebrating the 25^th Anniversary of Marvel Mangaverse with brand new stories.

Issue opens with Doctor Strange trying to save the day, and that causes this Earth and its Negative Zone to mix.  In doing so, several hundred people were giving visions of a bad future, but no one person got a full image of it. 

Laura Kinney, Weapon X-Tremis, has mutated her body so that she can hold the Phoenix Force, as of course the Phoenix Force is involved in this.

She’s opposed by her old friend, Illyana Rasputina, Legion.  Laura becomes tech is the solution, and Illyana believes magik is the solution. 

Another old friend, Miles Morales, Spinja, he’s still trying to find a name that sticks.  Pun intended.

He believes the Spider-Clan is the solution, and wants his old friends to stop fighting.

Miles was told by Master Wong that Illyana was trapped in Limbo by Yokai.  Legion (Illyana) creates a very cute purple Yokai (Lockheed), and I was already loving this issue, and then I truly loved this issue. 

Apparently creating a Yokai is forbidden, and punishable by death.

I like working Ezekiel into Miles’ mythos here.  Remember Ezekiel and Spider-Totems?  Joe Kelly does.

I also like that Illyana creates Bamfs to help out.  We’re getting all of the cuties here.

Illyana summons the Crimson Engine Infinite Battle March Yokai-God Cyttorak, so even here she has a friend in Juggernaut.

I like Miles summarizing the differences here.  Illyana is with demons, and Laura is with technomancy. 

To combat Cyttorak, Laura summons an X-Man, Illyana’s dead brother, Colossus.  Which is a line that can never be uncrossed.

So these two are not going to get along going forward.

We get another match up between Laura and Illyana with Lockheed, as we see Cyttorak and Colossus fighting behind them. 

This comic just looks cool. 

Miles is determined to stop all of this nonsense.

Laura is about to embrace the Phoenix vessel when . . . she gets sniped to the head. 

By the SCARLET SPIDER!!!  Who is Miles on a name that he believes will stick now, as he wraps the planet in scarlet bonds.  Or webs, if you will. 

Next up in the event, is Iron Knight, where Riri Williams is Iron Heart, and teams up with sorcerer Moon Knight. 

I know for a fact that Legion is back at the conclusion issue, web of Destiny, but not sure if she’s involved in the other issues of the event.  I do like her book ending the event.
