Newsarama: Immonen on Ultimate Spidey

ULTIMATE IMMONEN: STUART IMMONEN TALKS ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN - NEWSARAMA: "Astounding readers, defying critics and making some retailers eat bugs, in six short years Ultimate Spider-Man has gone from speculative experiment to unbridled hit. Over the course of 100 issues, writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Mark Bagley have re-envisioned the formative years of Peter Parker, aka Spider-Man, through modern eyes and explored familiar territory and uncharted deviations from the status quo. But with Bagley choosing to leave the series with #110, the question on everyone's minds is…. Who's the next artist?

Wonder no more.

Rumors of this have been floating for the past couple of months, and now, Marvel has confirmed with Newsarama that artist Stuart Immonen will be joining Ultimate Spider-Man with issue #111. Best known for his work on Nextwave, Superman and Ultimate X-men, Immonen has long been a go-to talent for Marvel Comics and this new assignment with the Ultimate web-crawler promises great things for Ultimate Spider-man and Stuart Immonen fans alike. As we've discussed with Immonen previously, Immonen displays a classic illustrator's mindset and the creative acumen to make the question not 'Can he do it?' but 'How great will it be?'"
