In January 2013 he and writer Dan Slott started the series The Superior Spider-Man. the series featuring the adventures of Spider-Man, now inhabited by the mind of Doctor Octopus. The first issue won the 2013 Diamond Gem Award for Comic Book of the Year Over $3.00.[4] As part of the All-New, All-Different Marvel relaunch of Marvel's titles, Stegman teamed with writer Gerry Duggan to launch The Uncanny Avengers vol. 3 series in October 2015. From 2016 to 2017, he co-wrote The Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows. In 2018, Marvel Comics relaunched a new volume of Venom, with Donny Cates as writer and Stegman as artist.[5] He drew the Absolute Carnage limited series in 2019.[6] In July 2020, Marvel announced that Stegman would draw the limited series King in Black, the first issue of which was released in December 2020.[7] In August 2021, Stegman established a new publishing imprint entitled KLC Press, alongside Donny Cates.[8] In September 2022, he and Cates released the first issue of Vanish, Stegman's first creator-owned ongoing series.[9] In May 2023, it was announced that Stegman would be co-writing a new book for KLC Press, entitled The Schlub, along with Kenny Porter, with Tyrell Cannon serving as illustrator. The book began publication in August 2023 from Image Comics.[10] In March 2023, it was announced that Stegman would serve as the illustrator for the upcoming From the Ashes relaunch of X-Men written by Jed MacKay, with the book set to launch in July 2024.[11]
