I love that Doctor Doom is the main villain. It’s always fun when a Spider-Man centered product doesn’t just use Spider-Man antagonists.

Well, this is very interesting to see. A Spider-man/Ultraman crossover (following the upcoming TMNT X Naruto crossover comic), speaking of Japanese translation are there any plan for Marvel's The Rise of Ultraman, and the Ultraman X Avengers crossover comic to get a Japanese translation? I think there could be a demand in Japan for these crossover comic to make an appearance on the other side of the Pacific.

Yeah, particularly Green Goblin or Venom, they're the ones I most often see overused.

America does their Marvel/Ultraman crossover, only fair Japan does theirs.

I guess since Miles is in the lead for the former, it makes sense Peter would be the main in the latter.

Also, is this set in the world of the original Showa Ultraman? Will we see the OG Science Patrol?

Doctor Doom was also the antagonist to Spider-Man in the SEGA Spider-Man arcade game.

Also, it would be interesting to see how Spidey fares in this manga. I wonder if he will also refer to himself as the "emissary of hell"? Very Happy
