"Marvel has announced a new Spider-Man plotline titled &amp;#039;Spider-Island&amp;#039;. Written by Dan Slott and illustrated by Humberto Ramos, the event kicks off with a prelude in Amazing Spider-Man #666 this summer. The story sees the inhabitants of Manhattan - including the hero&amp;#039;s allies and enemies - exhibit spider powers themselves. Spider-Man must uncover who is behind the mass mutation and prevent it from spreading further. &amp;quot;Back when Slott launched Spider-Man into the &amp;#039;Big Time&amp;#039; last year, he started laying the groundwork for possibly the biggest Spider-Man story you&amp;#039;ve ever seen,&amp;quot; said Marvel senior editor Stephen Wacker.  &amp;quot;The price of power is high for heroes and villains. The Avengers, the FF, Venom, Spider-Girl, Spider-Woman, the Sinister Six and even you are connected to ol&amp;#039; Web-Head in new ways. By the end of this story, we&amp;#039;re going to see what Spider-Man means to Marvel Universe and just how far he&amp;#039;ll go to keep it safe... including some life-changing choices that have major consequences.&amp;quot; Slott was unveiled as the sole writer on Amazing Spider-Man at last summer&amp;#039;s Comic-Con International. The writer has already completed two arcs on the title. &amp;#039;Spider-Island&amp;#039; officially begins in issue #667 in August. &amp;gt; Slott excited about Spider-Man family  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
