Amazing Spider-Man #1 drops — job‑less Peter meets a rampaging Rhino

Peter Parker is searching for work when a massive Rhino crashes his day, revealing a deeper plot that pulls familiar foes into a new, unseen scheme. Writer Joe Kelly and artist Pepe Larraz kick off a fresh chapter for the web‑slinger.

Marvel’s newest Amazing Spider‑Man #1 re‑introduces Peter at a crossroads: unemployed, scrolling through classifieds, when the city’s streets are torn up by a charging Rhino. The issue sets a tone of ordinary life colliding with the extraordinary, reminding us why the character’s humanity matters as much as his powers.

The story quickly escalates as the Rhino attack proves to be just the surface of a larger conspiracy. A shadowy mastermind is weaponizing a roster of Spider‑villains, even resurrecting a foe that hasn’t been seen in over seven years. Meanwhile, Norman Osborn appears without his Goblin persona, hinting at a cryptic agenda of his own.

Joe Kelly brings his signature blend of grounded dialogue and sharp twists, while Pepe Larraz delivers crisp, kinetic art that captures both the gritty cityscape and the high‑octane action. Their collaboration promises a new era for Spider‑Man that balances everyday struggle with the larger mythos, making this debut a must‑pick for both longtime fans and newcomers.

If you’re intrigued by the idea of extra Spider‑Man tales, you might also enjoy the earlier series The Amazing Spider‑Man: EXTRA!, an occasional run that explored side stories during the main title’s three‑issues‑a‑month schedule. It offers a glimpse of how the web‑slinger’s world can expand beyond the core narrative.

Pick up Amazing Spider‑Man #1 and see how a simple job hunt can turn into the spark of a city‑wide upheaval.
