Marvel still hasn’t really shown much of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, but hopefully the reveal of a prequel comic will tide you over

​[[{“value”:”

Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man is still yet to get its first trailer, but Marvel has announced a prequel comic to coincide with the animated series.

Despite the fact that Marvel’s animated take on everyone’s favourite web-slinger, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, is due out in about two months, we haven’t seen all that much of it. Even still, an upcoming prequel comic run has been revealed that essentially serves as an origin story for this version of Peter Parker, with Marvel describing it: “In this new comic book series, you can take the very first steps along with him as he discovers his powers, decides to become a hero, and even picks out his name and costume. Now Peter’s gotta survive an entire Freshman year as a newbie crime-fighting vigilante…and if you think you know how this story goes, you are in for a surprise!”

Presumably that last line is hinting that his origin story won’t be so cut and dry, and that it’ll differ from the usual Spider-Man affair. It has a strong team attached to it too, with Eric Gapstur serving as the artist for the five issue series, and Christos Gage attached as the writer. Gage is very familiar with Spider-Man, having written numerous comics, and Insomniac’s games too.
