Remember when Dan Slott tricked fans into believing that The Superior Spider-Man was actually going to be the fan-favorite Miguel O’Hara aka Spider-Man 2099? The writer later revealed that he did actually have plans for the character and at C2E2, Marvel unveiled a couple of covers for Superior Spider-Man, one revealing the return of Spider-Man 2099.

The character will be making his return to the Marvel Universe in Superior Spider-Man #17, where he will be teaming up with Spidey, from Dan Slott and Ryan Stegman this September. Time to party like it’s 2099.

During the Amazing Spider-Man panel at New York Comic-Con this past weekend, a young fan asked:

“Why you don’t do ‘Spider-Man 2099’ comics anymore?”

The crowd got excited over this question. Steve Wacker then replied with:

“We’ll do it for you. We don’t know when and where.”

Could he have been just saying this to make the kid happy or could we possibly honestly see the return of fan-favorite Miguel O’Hara? I wouldn’t doubt this being that O’Hara has actually had a big role in recent Spider-Man games including Edge Of Time and Shattered Dimensions.
