In "A Sense of Responsibility," Peter Parker’s secret identity takes a surprising turn when Emma, a girl he just saved from a falling sign, reads his mind and learns he’s Spider-Man. Determined to see more, she sets up a test with local thugs, while her friend Sophia decides to enroll at Peter’s school to get closer to him. Written by Paul Tobin and brought to life by Matteo Lolli’s expressive art, this 2009 tale explores the weight of identity with a touch of humor and heart, all under Skottie Young’s playful cover.
