What they’re saying:
- Writer Jonathan Hickman: "When we decided that we were going to do a book about an older Peter Parker becoming Spider-Man, we really wanted to lean into him starting his super hero life from a very different place than what's traditionally expected. Peter and MJ being married is one of many decisions we made that underline this being quite a 'different' kind of Spider-Man story."
