ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN BY HICKMAN SC VOL 01

Web-spinning out of the events of Ultimate Invasion, which established a new world without the Marvel Heroes as we know them and ruled by a sinister cabal. The Peter Parker met here is gifted his powers as a mature adult, married and with two children. A long desired status quo from superhero fans wanting forward momentum in the lives of their heroes. The creative team of writer Jonathan Hickman and artists Marco Chechetto and David Messina don't simply ride the wave of goodwill from that choice however. As well as a moving and considered household they establish new takes on old favourite characters, wrestle with journalism in the face of corruption, the terror of making new friends as couples and that old Spider-man standard, power and responsibility. Dynamic but grounded action rounds out all the needed elements to make this the most successful relaunch since the original Ultimate Universe.
