Astonishing Spider-Man & Wolverine | Comics

About 66 million years ago, a bearded Peter Parker observes the sky with his hand-made telescope as an asteroid was heading towards Earth, which he informs to Logan, who now runs a group called 'Small Folk' in the valley of fire. Both are stranded in past time and living separately since they don't get along very well. As the K-T Extinction Event becomes imminent, Spidey and Logan is transported in time again.

In present time, the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man and the feral X-Men member Wolverine tries to stop a bank robbery by the villain Orb and his gang. As Spidey hits one of Orb’s goons, he drops a few glowing diamonds on the ground that mysteriously sent the heroes back in time. There they find out that as they got into this timeline, The Orb is also travelling in time along with them. But the Orb became least of their concern when they are both confronted by a group of robots with whom Wolverine starts tangling around.

After surviving the prehistoric extinction event, the 'Small Folk' has become a dominant tribe of people who ruled the world and are behind these robot attacks.. While fighting and later disarming a bunch of robots, Wolverine detects with his heightened sense that they are probably being watched by someone for some time. He and Spider-Man got busy in the new timeline and the latter is being considered as a Messiah to the gorilla-men who worships him believing that only he can stop the upcoming end of the world.

Spidey suggests Wolvey to give them some hope which they desperately needs at this time but Wolverine refuses to be considered as their savior. Soon, they face Devil Dinosaur and an aged Doom transferring his consciousness to Ego, the Living Planet. As Spidey has been looking for a means of mass destruction to take down this menace for quite some time and he eventually discovers a small fragment of Phoneix force, which he forged into a bullet.

Wolverine shot the bullet to Planet Doom, destroying it and also died in the process. By hot-wiring an old Cosmic Cube, Spidey brings him back only to experience another time-jump by two unknown person, Czar and Big Murder. Spider-Man and Wolverine realizes that the one responsible for doing all these time-travel is Mojo, who brings the duo in the pocket dimension Mojoworld.

Another Fine Mess

The artwork and the story concept of the series were highly praised even though the whole story might seem a little bit complex and oddly placed. The series was also just a trip to another direction that weren't actually going anywhere while featured the special appearance of some other lesser-known Marvel characters as well.
