Marvels' celebration of 50 years of Spider-Man is coming soon and Marvel is celebrating Spider-Man's birthday with the Spider-Man mini-series in which 616 and Ultimate Spider-Man team up. But for what reason will they team up? How will they cross paths? Who's going to be the villain that they will have to team up in order to beat? Those questions can be answered with just one name, Mysterio.
"Mysterio is up there with the most dangerous criminals that Spider-Man has come up against," says Brian Michael Bendis in an interview with USA Today.
Bendis goes personal when adding Mysterio into the mix due to his enjoyment of seeing Mysterio in comics when he was younger.
"When I was a kid, I found some of his stories to be terrifying. It just got so personal. When he does his thing right, he delves in and gets deep into a psyche that doesn't deserve that kind of punishment."
Mysterio will somehow throw himself along with Spider-Man into the Ultimate Universe where Peter will be seeing the Ultimate versions of his loved ones.
