Overview
The fan-favorite “Brand New Day” era was one of the most creative periods in Spidey’s history — and these are the stories that prove it!
“Brand New Day” wasn’t just a story — it was an era. Spanning almost three years and over one hundred issues, it was a time when a rotating cast of the industry’s most talented writers and artists redefined Spider-Man for the 21st century. The stories they created continue to influence the Spider-Man comics of today — as well as television series, video games and films featuring everyone’s favorite wall-crawler!
The handpicked stories featured in this Brand New edition highlight the scope and spirit of the era — from heart-wrenching to pulse-pounding to darkly introspective. Included in this collection are:
