11 Essential Storylines To Read If You Love Spider-Man
6. Civil War
The Marvel Civil War event was another fairly controversial storyline, but love it or hate it, there's no denying that it shook the Marvel Universe to its very core.
Apart from the main Civil War limited series, probably the most engaging aspect of the event was what was Peter Parker's own personal story arc that was taking place on the pages of The Amazing Spider-Man.
We see his inner struggle as his allegiance during the Civil War begins to shift and he starts to feel caught in the middle of the conflict.
Also, arguably no superhero out there is more protective of his secret identity than Spider-Man, so seeing him unmask to the public was a massive deal while this event was first going on. And we see the psychological toll that aspect of the Civil War takes on him as well.
Peter's story during the Civil War is about one coming to terms with what they think is right in a time when the lines of morality are blurred. And it's definitely worth a read.
