Marvel Comics and Dan Slott Ask, "Who is Alpha?"

There's a new character coming to the Marvel Universe. Who the heck could it be?

There's been a lot of great things going on in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN since Dan Slott took over. Despite Ends of the Earth wrapping up, there's still more to come. There was an interesting conversation going on last week over Twitter about creators creating new characters for the big publishers versus retaining the rights to them. Slott sees the joy in creating a fresh new character that gets to play around with the rest of the Marvel Universe.

Coming in August, everyone will be asking, "Who the heck is Alpha?" (Yeah, I added the 'heck' in there).
