JJ Abrams just made his Marvel Comics debut, as he and his son Henry have penned a new miniseries simply titled Spider-Man. It turns out that this series isn’t at all what we thought, as an early plot twist radically and permanently alters Peter Parker’s life.
Read on to find out what happens in Spider-Man #1 and why this series isn’t taking place in traditional Marvel continuity like we thought.

The cover to Spider-Man #1 suggests this series is focused heavily on the relationship between Spider-Man and Mary Jane, who recently became a couple again in the pages of Amazing Spider-Man. But as we quickly learn, Abrams’ Spider-Man takes place in an alternate universe where Peter and MJ are still married.
