About the series
Set in the "Ultimate" universe, this 12-issue 2002–2012 Marvel series reimagines Peter Parker's early days as Spider-Man through a modern lens, with Brian Michael Bendis as its defining writer and artists Mark Bagley, Stuart Immonen, and David Lafuente shaping its energetic, youthful look. It explores Peter's balancing act of high school life alongside allies like Mary Jane Watson and Gwen Stacy, while introducing fresh takes on familiar faces such as Kong and Shadowcat. This run matters for its streamlined, character-driven approach that helped revitalize the Spider-Man mythos for a new generation.
