COMICS: The Final Issue Of SPIDER-MEN II Delivers A Surprise Return Which Will Leave Fans Reeling
Today's Spider-Men II #5 features plenty of twists and turns but the biggest is a last-minute reveal which is going to leave the jaws of comic book fans on the floor! Needless to say, SPOILERS follow...
In Secret Wars, the regular and Ultimate Marvel Universes collided and by the time all was said and done, the world which introduced a lot of very exciting alternate takes on fan-favourite characters like Captain America and Spider-Man was no more. Most fans felt like that was for the best as this reality went off the rails with Ultimatum but today's Spider-Men finale features its shocking return!
During the issue, it's revealed that the Ultimate Universe has been restored and Peter Parker is still its Spider-Man. The Ultimates, meanwhile, is made up of Captain America, Thor, The Hulk, Giant-Man, Spider-Woman, and an Ultimate version of Riri Williams' Ironheart. Needless to say, the possibilities are endless and you can understand why writer Brian Michael Bendis decided to bring his baby back.
Alas, he's now heading to DC Comics but the story possibilities this opens the door to are endless. Back in the regular Marvel Universe, Miles Morales has decided to give up being Spider-Man but we'll no doubt see his return at some point in the near future. What do you think of this development?
