10 Heartwarming Marvel Moments That Made Fans Cry
5. Otto Gives Peter His Body Back - Superior Spider-Man
Superior Spider-Man was a fantastic series through and through, but it could only have ended one way. After all, it did threaten that precious status-quo that marvel is obsessed with keeping Peter locked into for the rest of eternity, no matter how much it makes readers not want to read Spider-Man anymore.
But at least the end of this story was one of the best in recent memory. Throughout the series, Peter's last remaining consciousness had been working as a sort of conscience for Otto throughout his journey as the new Spider-Man. Though Otto could not really see him, at least not until the end.
When it becomes obvious that they cannot both inhabit the same body any longer, Otto finally relents so that Peter can stop the bad guy and save the day. The two reconcile their differences, with Otto admitting that Peter is - and always has been - the Superior Spider-Man.
Although it returned us to that dreaded status quo, it was a really good ending for this story of a villain honestly giving the superhero gig a go, and for the most part, succeeding.
