New Pulp Author Martin Powell shared the following news on his Facebook page.

Well, now it's official. Moonstone is now packaging a special volume devoted exclusively to my own adventures of Norvell Page's mad and monstrous crimefighter -- THE SPIDER. This is exciting, but also a bit bittersweet as it's my swan song for this character. I'm going to miss him.

The collection will feature both re-presented comics and prose as well as all-new stories and art, never before published.

The contents are:

"City of the Melting Dead" illustrated prose with art by Tom Floyd
"City that Couldn't Sleep" illustrated prose with art by Pablo Marcos
"Death Siege of the Frankenstein Legion" comic with art by Pablo Marcos
"Blood Reign of the Thunder King" comic with art by Hannibal King
"City of the Bleeding Snow" comic with art by Tom Floyd
"The Spider vs. The Werewolf" comic with art by Jay Piscopo

Soon as I know the publishing date, I'll announce it here on Facebook.
