11 Essential Storylines To Read If You Love Spider-Man

Speaking of pivotal, One More Day was the storyline that completely changed the status quo for the Spider-Man series. With Aunt May dying as a result of being shot, Peter is driven to desperation as he attempts to save his life.

This desperation leads to him and his wife, Mary Jane, cutting a deal with Mephisto, who offers to save May's life in return for Peter and Mary Jane giving up their marriage. They ultimately accept, on the condition that Peter's secret identity be erased from public knowledge (following Civil War.) Thus, a new timeline is created.

It's a compelling look at what can go through a person's head when they are forced to choose between two people they love and what it's like when you only have "one more day".

Also, after reading One More Day, it's encouraged that you also take a look at the follow-up storyline Brand New Day, which shows Peter going off in this new world that was created for him.
