Amazing Spider-Man Vol. 4: Broken

Peter Parker goes cosmic!

While both Peter Parker and Spider-Man’s shoes are being filled back on Earth, the real deal is light years away in a distant solar system, wearing a new suit and running with strange companions. One such companion? A creature named Symbie! Another you will recognize as Rocket Raccoon! But who else is one of Spidey’s cosmic friends? And will they have his back when he finds himself between a rock and a giant alien beast intent on his death?! Peter may be lost in space with no way home, but does he even want to return after his shocking defeat at the hands of Hellgate? And even if he can somehow find Earth, is he ready for round two with the most powerful foe he’s ever faced?
