Publisher’s description

In our Untold Tales of Spider-Man, J.M. DeMatteis is back to take us through more of Peter Parker's struggle to become a hero. In "The Punch," Pete struggles to keep his powers in check around Flash Thompson – and discovers the negative examples a hero can set. Then, on a trip even further back in time, Matt Yocum takes us on an adventure of epic proportions with Pete's parents, Richard and Mary Parker – international parents of mystery! Over in Mr. and Mrs. Spider-Man, during a late night hospital visit for baby May, Pete and MJ run into the Rhino – and discover even a super villain has a family. Finally in our Told Tales of Spider-Man, take a look back at the demise of Harry Osborn in The Spectacular Spider-Man #200!
