Breakout!

As the Marvel Universe's New Avengers confront a huge jailbreak threatening the citizens of New York, the event poses new dangers for one of the team's most famous members, in Spider-Man: Breakout, a five-issue Marvel Comics mini-series.

Written by Tony Bedard and illustrated by Manuel Garcia & a cover by Mike Deodato, the mini-series will tie into both Spider-Man Month and the chart-topping New Avengers. Fans of that series who don't regularly buy books from the Spider-Man line, and Spider-fans who may not travel beyond Spidey's titles may be encouraged to do so by this exciting project.

Spider-Man: Breakout #1 will place the web-slinging wonder in the middle of the mass escape taking place in New Avengers, which sends some of Marvel's deadliest villains into the streets of Manhattan -- and when two warring cliques of these powerful cons face off, guess who swings between them?
