- Welcome or welcome back to the stash! today we go over the new issue of Ultimate Spider-Man but also we do a massive deep dive into why i love this brand new series! its brought back the hero we all know, love and missed and im so happy to have him back.
PREVIOUSLY;
Twenty years ago, THE MAKER prevented a radioactive spider from biting a young PETER PARKER. He likewise prevented the creation of any other super heroes and formed a secret council to rule the world from the shadows.
Five months ago, TONY STARK sent Peter that same radioactive spider along with a picotech suit and warnings of THE MAKER'S COUNCIL. Since then, Peter has used the incredible powers granted by the spider's bite to fight crime alongside a masked vigilante called GREEN GOBLIN (HARRY OSBORN, Co-C.E.O. of OSCORP).
They met fighting an assassin hired by WILSON FISK, the KINGPIN of New York and a subordinate of the Maker's Council. Fisk is also, as owner of THE DAILY BUGLE, Peter's boss...
But so far, Peter has managed to keep his second life a secret from everyone-well, except his daughter, MAY.
any support means so much, please like, comment and subscribe :)

That is beeing married.
Talking, giving not taking.
I regret never having children.
But we both decided to not to go that way.
This book made me feel all happy and warm inside.
I'm glad i'm still around to witness it.
Thanks Mr Hickman.
Now don't ruin it for us!
Gotta say, I love how this arc ended. The conversation between Pete and MJ really redeemed her in my eyes.
I can't wait for more to come from our favorite Web-Head!
It was just so refreshing to not have forced soap opera drama. Hickman nailed this arc man
@@mnstash If you want a soap opera, let it happen organically.
I don't know if you heard about it, but Zeb Wells will leave The Amazing Spider-man comics. He's writing his very last story-arc.
Yeah I made a community post when I saw the news, made me jump for joy out of my bed!
and what the last story arc might be,mj and paul finally married 😂😂,fking shiet
i hope the one who picked up after zeb wells did not messed that up any further
As long as the editorial doesn’t change, don’t get ahead of yourself
Do I dare to believe? Is there really hope for the Web-Slinger? Can we finally be happy and enjoy a good story?
Hot dang, I could cry right now. This is what I've been looking for. Passion and love for the character and the lore. This is Spider-Man; this is our hero, given the respect he deserves. I love this so much.
Welcome back, Spider-Man! We've all missed you.
I’m so excited to see what direction Hickman takes next with the book but as of for now those first 6 issues were perfection!
@@mnstash We need this book to succeed. This comic has to continue so we can keep seeing the Spider-Man we've been dying to see for all these years.
Even more, they better not screw this up. They had better not kick Hickman from this book as they did with his X-Men run.
So far this series has done incredible with sales, issue one got like 6 printings and I think issue 6 is already up for a second printing
@@mnstashwish they would bring more exclusief covers back.
Regret missing the MJ and Peter variants.
i was lucky enough to pre order all three j scott campbell covers signed! they sold out in like 7 minutes
Yeah after thisnlast issue if it wasn't already it is now.
This IS my Spider-Man.
Genuinely was in disbelief when I read issue 6 from just how good it was. Spidey is BACK
@@mnstash Btw peeped the webshooters I'm currently waiting on my model kit to come in the mail
Loved this issue, the fight with Kingpin, peter, and Harry Banter, MJ giving Spiderman his name, amazing
The Name part was a brilliant idea it was the icing on the cake
Me reading issue 6: Wait No Unnecessary Drama? A genuinely supportive family of a superhero? Take my money and keep COOKING Hickman🎉
Ultimate Spider-Man is like Superman & Lois it gives the fans what they want. Hopefully after Zeb Wells leaves Peter and MJ can finally be happy. Just erase One More Day from canon already.
im hoping this book set the tone for good to the editorial
@@mnstash Marvel Editorial will always be the true villain of the Marvel Universe. Just like Warner Brothers they want to do the opposite of what fans want.
@@callmejacob3234I mean the current Superman comic is at that point too now
@@mnstashOne refreshing thing about this story is actually seeing a stable, loving caring traditional family that actually works. Mostly on pop culture now is single parent households, or a child raised by a relative, divorced parents or married parents that hate each other... rarely we do see nowadays a full family of a happily married husband and wife with good stable children who respect their parents and each other.
I also think this is one of the reasons why also Superman and lois worked out so well, ppl are starving for stable loving traditional families on pop culture. Looking at the last decade... how often do you see it, not much right??
“I realize this isn’t entirely accurate but it’s good to have you back”
It's simply the best of both the Ultimate and 616 verses.
we shouldn't sleep on the other titles too!
This is the reason I’m only buying the only Ultimate Spider-Man is well written Zeb Wells writing is all the place, very happy he’s leaving. 😊
the day he finally goes we should all celebrate
I recognize that background score
No way!! Man I loved lotus I even did a big video right after I watched it :) thanks for watching!
Man the Spider-Man Lotus theme being used here was really cool for some reason, When I was a student with a lot of free time I used to read Spider-Man comics with the main theme playing in the background as one of my few tracks (read entire history like 3 years ago) and it's great to hear it here when I've finally caught up with the fanbase and can talk about Spider-Man comics
You noticed thats so cool! Gavin himself commented and I couldn't believe it😅ive been dying to use spider-man themes in videos and this is the only one that hasn't gotten me copyrighted (fingers crossed) plus its such good score too
Richard could totally become the "responsibility" lesson for Peter down the line, but he doesn't actually have to die.
There are so many other ways that a child's life and relationship with their father could be affected by a situation like this. And if the lack of development of Richard is an intentional nod to, perhaps, an idea that maybe Peter is unknowingly neglecting his son, it could lead to all sorts of situations that maybe aren't life-threatening, but enough to show Peter that he holds a responsibility to his family above all else.
Not that he doesn't already know this, but reinforcing that lesson is just good drama.
I love how MJ finally let her hair loose in that final shot officially showing her OG look at the exact same time Pete officially becomes Spider-man it's as if these first 6 issues where the Origin story for the book itself and now things are gonna start to really kickoff God I love this book so much
it truely is a love letter to pete and MJ fans! i really hope they explore more of their relationship now that the first arc is done, id love to see their marraige and such
I want the symbote in maybe a couple arcs down the line but not because of the drama or anything like that but because of what Peter will do his struggle between being a good guy and going beyond that line
7:37 Interestingly Peter and MJ's daughter(s) have always gotten more attention than his son(s), when this concept originated in earth-616 it was going to be a daughter until Marvel editorial screwed everything up with the stillbirth, and when they did a what-if of the baby surviving, she (Mayday) was the main character of her series. Their son Ben was just a baby, In Renew Your Vows he doesn't have a son but it does have a daughter in Annie/Anna, in Across The Spider-Verse it's the same except his daughter is Mayday instead of Annie/Anna, and in this Peter is the main character of the series and he has a son and a daughter. Still, his daughter has gotten more attention/devolvement. This is not a bad thing it's just something easy to notice, and take note of.
Now that’s what I’m talking about great review keep them coming cheers
I love your intros. Another banger of a video. Your passion really shines through
thank you my good man! this book deserves the best I could provide
One refreshing thing about this story is actually seeing a stable, loving caring traditional family that actually works. Mostly on pop culture now is single parent households, or a child raised by a relative... rarely we do see nowadays a full family of a happily married husband and wife with good stable children who respect their parents and each other.

absolutely amazing video...teared up myself
I love this book. Nothing has topped issue 1 for me yet. That to me was a perfect story. Swapping Peter’s guilt for dissatisfaction was genius. It’s a great story about starting anew. That’s very relatable and brave and something we all need to do at some point.
I love how Mary Jane feels like the next natural evolution from what Gonway, Romita and JMD set up with her. She doesn’t have a lot of time in the book but when she does I think she’s great.
I don’t know what’s going to happen. I don’t know if they will kill Richard because that’s a bit dark BUT, I can still see them eventually taking Ben. I think this could play into why Harry said THE line in issue 4.
Both Peter and Harry want to live up to that life but in different ways. Peter by trying to help the villains and be kind, Harry by killing then, moving them out the way to save the world. Peter could stop one of the villains and leave only for that villain to still escape and kill Uncle Ben. Ben died in 616 because Peter didn’t react, he dies here because Peter reacted.
The one thing I need from this book is scenes with Mary Jane and Uncle Ben together with no Peter because I don’t think we’ve ever seen that. If Mary Jane still has her same upbringing there is a good chance Uncle Ben was the father figure in her life. I honestly wouldn’t be shocked if he walked Mary Jane down at the wedding. I want that explored, that dynamic. Showcase the marriage, showcase how different family members interact with each other, don’t be afraid of drama and conflict as long as it’s resolved like adults and I think Ultimate Spider-Man when it’s all said and done could be the greatest run on the character we’ve seen
I agree 100% now that the first arc is done id love to see some backstory with MJ and the family! I could see those issues selling out in a heartbeat. thanks for watching :)
I'm not even gonna try to describe how much I loved this issue, especially the ending. The reveal to MJ was everything I hoped it would be.
goosebumps man..goosebumps
Your thumb nail goes hard 🔥
See...our patience is paid off with this outstanding finale story arc!😂
If anyone asking, Who needs to be removed from Peter's family?, I would said, No one!
Peter doesn't need to learn responsibility with the loss of family members as consequences of his "superhero" activity.
He is responsible enough with how he managed his family and raised his kids, so why need to learn anymore?😂
well lets just hope they dont go and do an uncle ben!
@@mnstash Who knows. Uncle Ben is one of the most important characters in Classic Peter's story, so...
oh I mean like someone biting the dust uncle ben style, I just think the parkers catching a break would be nice😅
The first arc was fantastic world building and I'm super excited to see where this goes. So far I love everything about this book!
Same here man, it’s crazy how good of a writer Hickman is
great review man
thank you glad you enjoyed :)
@@mnstash your welcome man
Another great review. An interesting and creative intro/opening to the video. I agree with your assessment of the 1st 6 issues of "USM". There are rumors since Hickman has MJ and Peter swinging the city together, Fisk/Kingpin will figure out who they are, especially MJ. Fisk/Kingpin might have MJ killed off. I hope not. We'll have to wait and see what direction this book takes. I wouldn't want MJ killed off after building their relationship in this universe.
However, as a SpiderCat fan, if MJ is killed in "USM # 25" or "USM # 50" (if the book lasts that long), then have Peter grieve for 5 to 10 issues. Peter meets Felicia Hardy/The Black Cat, and they become a power couple, Felcicia becomes a stepmom to Richard and May,, and they marry, and have kids together. I wouldn't mind that if Marvel takes this comic in another direction or Hickman leaves after 15 to 20 issues. Unfortunately, the more Hickman builds this storyline in "USM", "ASM" in the 616 universe will never put MJ and Peter back together. Not the final story arc of the terrible writer Zeb Wells or the new writer. I would be in favor of the SpiderCat storyline in "ASM" with the new writer. The best thing for "ASM" is to bring back Nick Spencer, retcon all of what Zeb Wells did, and go back to where Peter was going to propose to MJ and make Paul, the kids, and her time as "Jackpot" all a nightmare. Never happen with Nick Lowe as editor, but we can continue wishful thinking. Keep up the great work. Cheers.
thank you :) I honestly sat there for 30 minutes trying to think of any sorta of intro that came to mind! it would make sense due to fisk having cameras everywhere but man I hope they dont kill off anyone in the parkers this time.
im not sure how old Felicia is in this universe. for this worlds sinister six her dad is in it as the black cat which is...interesting to say the least.
with asm I feel like the new writer shoal do what Spencer was doing and have doctor strange sense mephisto has done something to Peter. its a super easy way to do a massive retcon. also f*ck marvel for making Peter waste that wish Loki gave him during the JMS run. literally wasted it if he held onto it for like a couple more months he could've saved aunt may
@@mnstash Good point about Felicia's Dad. SpiderCat would be highly unlikely in the "USM" universe, but we've seen many improbable situations precipitate in the "ASM" universe. Anything is possible. I hope Hickman continues in this direction.
Your suggested retcon about "ASM" is a good approach to erase what Zeb Wells has done during his run, but I wouldn't mind Peter and Felicia getting together in "ASM". I think the Peter and MJ relationship isn't salvageable due the the length of time since "OMD/BND". I agree about Spidey using Loki's wish to save Aunt May. The way "ASM" has ruined Spider-Man these 17 years, the new writer won't retcon anything and bring back Peter and MJ. I don't have an issue with that IF Peter and Feleiia are made a power couple. However, I acknowledge most Spidey fans aren't SpiderCat fans, but IMO that's better than the garbage Marvel continues to publish in "ASM". TBH, I'm not excited about the new writer. it's highly probable, that the new writer is going to be an activist and will write even worse Spidey stories than Zeb Wells. I hope I'm completely wrong about this, but per Marvel's Spider-Man track record, what else can I think? Looking forward to your next review.
Can't wait for the 1st Volume to release and add to my Spidey collection rn I have Spider-man Life Story, Spider-Verse Spider-Geddon Omnibus and Spider-Island
I'm enjoying this new Ultimate Spider-Man. New world mixed up with the old. Spider-Man learning the curves while also having to be a father and a husband. Mary Jane not boring and winy.
Issue 6 is using the superhuman bit for the Kingpin. I've Never liked when writes portray him as such. But at least they explained it as being augmented ... But still. It's kingpin. Power is his power. But it's a different universe. I can accept that.
Peter is naive and trusty. Are we having a downfall of the Green Goblin?
PS: It's easy to notice how much you like Spider-Man. Another well done video.
thank you :) you can really tell the difference of my mood when looking at this comic as oppose to zeb wells stuff too😂
This made me wanna re read JMS run again at least the first half haha
funny you should say that im gonna go on a plane tomorrow and im bringing a long a kms collected book to read
I love this book it's really awesome and amazing and seeing peter parker and Mary jane being married and having there kids mayday and benjy parker now all being on the same page and accepting there father is a superhero and Spider-Man makes me so happy, and even cooler having Mary jane name Peter Parker Spider-Man is pure genius and amazing I love it so much, also holy shit that kingpin fight was super brutal but super worth it and makes me so happy that I am very excited to see what happens next with this amazing series. :)
Hickman without a doubt cooked so hard with this series. I love his style of writing I wish he was on ASM! his more character focused stories is perfect for it
@@mnstash same here I love it too and I am also happy that this book is outselling asm by a huge margin and just proves to marvel they are wrong with keeping Peter Parker and Mary Jane being separated because of there terrible ego which makes no sense to me, because it feels to me that they would rather have the main book burn instead of say I don’t know let the ultimate Spider-Man be your blueprint for the main book as a whole in my opinion.
🤘THWIP🕸
Lol nice blue reference at the end
So glad you noticed it, You’re the first!
i was about to create my own spider man or marvel universe, i called it earth 2106, and reading it felt like seeing the characters back to his glory days. It’s going to be tough but i see this comic as an inspiration for when peter is older to be a father and a mentor in my story
thats great man I love fan stories! you should try to get it out there!
I enjoy this new take. But it feels kinda lazy to wipe everything. Like Ultimate Pete and MJ are alive and well somewhere with no stories going on.
This ultimate Spiderman as a lot of similarities with Tom Defalco's Spider Girl which is great.
i gotta re read spider-girl tbh!
I gotta say....after everything since OMD....after all the writer who have taken dumps all over the hero I've read since I was 5 years old....after them treating Peter and MJ how they have in the 616, after so much frustratio I will say this: A grown man of 38 and I cried reading this one. Tears of joy of the character that formed me in ways nothing else in pop culture has FINALLY getting a win. Tears of frustration that it took so long and they're STILL treating 616 Peter and MJ like shit....this issue broke a dam inside of me that I didn't even realize was there. Peter and MJ CAN make a marriage work, kids work and a little bit older spider is fine! 10/5 stars. This is prolly my fave run since Renew Your Vows.
Maan, your username give me chills!😂
I understand that feeling, though. Almost all of Ultimate Spider-Man readers, feel the same thing. You're not alone in this one!!
And it's okay if you have some tears of joys, because...well, Spider-Man comics didn't perform decent lately.
This series is for the REAL spidey fans! im glad you enjoyed it man you deserve it, its a beautiful love letter to our hero! Hickman did something dan slott and zeb wells haven't been able to do in their whole career, tell a good spider-man story
The issue I have is how this won't work without a LOT of assumptions. Like, why is Matt Murdoch blind? That's how he got his powers. Where is Luke Cage? Did he die in prison? K'un L'un and Iron First, where is he? What happened to SHIELD? What happened to Cap? And that's not touching on how they can't stop mutants and their powers from happening without reinventing the entire world... There's so much they don't answer and it makes the world feel... Implausible, it's like it exists SOLELY for Spider-Man.
And that’s what I honestly take this world for. I don’t really pay much attention to any of the other ultimate comics! As a Spider-Man comic however it nails it
I do kinda agree. To my knowledge Ultimate Spider-Man was the first book they announced, with idea of it being a alternate reality where the Marvel universe was basically put on pause for twenty or so years.
Now, the problem I have is that there really isn't a major book around the help kick this universe off, so it does feel like the rest of the universe is built around the concept introduced in USM.
But as to your answer on Cap, he was still frozen in ice and was kept hidden until Tony Stark and crew found him.
I mean…I guess?
I think they are trying to pull an MCU Iron Man with this one. ultimate Spiderman(2024) is the entry point for the next to come.
Kinda of like The Original Ultimates.where the Avengers began and then Ultimate Spiderman(OG) came in.
I am sure Matt Murdoch already has his powers. Only, he is not done a costume yet, and patrolling Hell's Kitchen every night. 😂
Marvel announced the next Spider-Man Writer. The new writer is Joe Kelly. He did a good Deadpool run, but I'm uncertain if he's a good fit. He wrote some issues with Zeb Wells in the current run. I believe the terrible writing will continue. I'm not impressed or optimistic. I'm ready to check out and stop following "ASM". Looking forward to your opinion on this announcement.
I feel like it's an 80% chance hes gonna be a bad writer for asm and a 20% cache he could be decent. like you said his work that isn't bad is great but his bad stuff on the other hand...
I would've preferred a writer that isn't attached to BND but I doubt that will ever happen again
best part.
theres is no paul.
I just hope marvel learns the right leasons from this book. Between this and one more day a few years back, they clearly know what the fans want. But then 616 peter gets cucked again right after
Where u get that mask ?
Etsy, one seller makes quite a few with face shell
if in this new ultimate universe america broke up in 1969 (the ultimates #1) then where do all these issues of usm take place??
i havent read the other ultimate series im not too sure!
@@mnstash hopefully they’ll explain in future usm issues then
I wondered when are we gonna get a marvel legends ultimate spider man and mary jane watson 2 pack figures by hasbro huh we deserved it as a redo of 2017 this year?
Do you really want Hasbro to take a crack at it, given their current reputation?
@@BrandontheAwesome Yes it's been 8 years now we need an updated classic Mary jane Watson as of now but also a new Gwen Stacy too with some improved articulation like Black Widow and Warbird to be specific yeah?
@@edrianraneses5864 I dunno, Hasbro's quality control has been getting out of hand last I heard.
Don't get me wrong, I would love to see a 2-pack of USM Peter and MJ, but I'm worried they'll botch it.
@@BrandontheAwesome I know I hoped they do not mess it up and rushed it like the last stand spidey figure something like that
@@edrianraneses5864 I'm content with my Amazing Fantasy figure right now. I can wait.
Just boring!
What’s boring about it?
@@mnstash Everything!
What specifically? If you found this boring then you’d probably find a lot of Spider-Man comics boring
Nobody force you to read Ultimate Spider-Man book!
If you think that USM series is boring, find another that suits you.
Or, change your hobby!
There's a ton of activities out there.
Simple!
@@mnstashProbably, he/she, thinks (his/her) own life boring, too.😂
Just ignore this kind of response. You cannot pleased everyone.
