Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #1
This volume collects the first six issues of the 2006 Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man series, launching a new era for Peter Parker as he balances his personal life with his superhero duties. Written by Peter David with art by Mike Wieringo, the story kicks off with a mysterious villain known as the Deranged causing chaos, while Spider-Man faces threats from classic foes like the Vulture and a new, more dangerous version of the Jackal. The arc sets up a larger mystery involving Peter's identity and his relationships with Aunt May, Mary Jane, and his supporting cast.
"Web Log" kicks off a fresh chapter in Spider-Man’s tale with a poignant twist: a version of Ben Parker from a world where tragedy never ended finds himself in a reality where May is alive—and everyone believes he’s dead. Written by Peter David and brought to life by Mike Wieringo’s expressive art, with Karl Kesel’s inks and Paul Mounts’ colors, this issue introduces a new Hobgoblin with a personal edge, setting a tense, emotional tone that lingers long after the first page. The cover by Mike Wieringo and Karl Kesel captures the moment with striking clarity.
