Marvel has released some stunning images from Amazing Spider-Man #500, which ships to retailers on October 22.  Topflight Spidey scribe J. Michael Stracynski penned the 48-page issue, which finds the webslinger battling an inter-dimensional threat with help from a raft of guest stars including the FF, Thor, Iron Man, Cyclops, and Dr. Strange.  Classic Spider-Man villains including Doc Ock and the Green Goblin also make their appearance, and the great John Romita Sr. draws one very unexpected reunion.  Romita's talented son, John Jr., and Scott Hanna provide the rest of the interior art, while J. Scott Campbell produced the striking cover image.
