"Marvel Comics has unveiled its Spider-Island: Deadly Foes one-shot. The comic features a host of creators and centres around the activities of the villains in New York City during the Spider-Man event. &amp;quot;With all of Manhattan quarantined due to Spider-Island, The Jackal and Hobgoblin take advantage of the mass hysteria to destroy the Amazing Spider-Man,&amp;quot; said the publisher. &amp;quot;This August, join Dan Slott, Christos Gage, Fred Van Lente, Giuseppe Camuncoli and Minck Oosterveer as they bring on the bad guys for Spider-Island: Deadly Foes #1. &amp;quot;How will each of these villains exploit the spider-plague that&amp;#039;s eating the Big Apple from the inside out? And what perverse plans have they crafted for Spider-Man?&amp;quot; &amp;quot;The new Hobgoblin and the Jackal play central roles in Slott and Ramos&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;Spider-Island&amp;#039; epic. With this double-sized special we&amp;#039;re giving the readers two thrilling, death-defying stories connected directly to &amp;#039;Spider-Island&amp;#039;s main artery,&amp;quot; said senior editor Steve Wacker. &amp;quot;This ain&amp;#039;t just a couple [of] origin stories. Chris Gage and Fred Van Lente worked closely with Dan to weave stories that serve to violently expand the main &amp;#039;Spider-Island&amp;#039; plot.&amp;quot; The forthcoming event sees chaos ensue after the residents of Manhattan begin to display Spider-Man-like abilities. The storyline begins in Amazing Spider-Man #666. The Spider-Island: The Amazing Spider-Girl tie-in miniseries was announced earlier this week.  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
