The Spider-Man of the future - Spider-Man 2099 - will be returning this May for a new limited series resurrecting the hero, as well as the others from sci-fi Marvel line set in the future.
Writer Steve Orlando is leading this new series, titled Spider-Man 2099: Exodus, with help from artists such as Paul Fry, David Wachter, Marco Castiello, Ze Carlos, Alessandro Mircola, and Kim Jacinto. Orlando's connection to 2099 was foreshadowed just recently in his Marauders Annual #1 with the return of X-Men 2099 villains Brimstone Love and his so-called Theater of Pain.

"And at the forefront of that future, fighting as anyone with his name always has, for the everyday folks of the future? Miguel O'Hara. Spider-Man 2099."
This 30th-anniversary Marvel 2099 event will begin May 4 with the kick-off special Spider-Man 2099: Exodus - Alpha #1 by Orlando and Fry, which witnesses a Celestial falling to Earth and creating an oasis amid the desolate wastelands of America circa 2099.

Here are the design sheets for Winter Soldier 2099 (by Dave Wachter) and Loki 2099 (by Marco Castiello):
"So here, decades later, celebrating the 30th Anniversary of 2099 is a dream come true! And there was never any question who'd be the face of this
