5 Spider-Man Comics To Read Before Brand New Day Comes Out Tomorrow

Spider-Man Brand New Day Out In Cinemas Tomorrow

We still don’t have any idea what exactly is going to happen in Spider-Man Brand New Day but going by the trailers here are 5 Spider-Man comics to get you ready for hitting the big screen.

Spider-Man - Brand New Day Volume 1

Spider-Man: Brand New Day This is the number one recommendation. The film takes its title from this era of the comics, which follows Peter after a massive reset to his personal life. While the MCU's memory wipe is different from the comic version, both versions feature: • Peter starting over • Living alone • Being Spider-Man full-time • Rebuilding his life from scratch • A more street-level focus Now I doubt the film will be identical but its definitely going to have that feel

Spider-Man - The Other (2005–2006)

This could be the second most relevant comic. The trailers have hinted that Peter is undergoing a strange physical transformation. That has led many fans to suspect inspiration from The Other, where Spider-Man evolves and gains new spider-like abilities. At first it was thought we would be getting Man-Spider but I don’t think Marvel are brave enough to show us that yet.

Spider-Man - One More Day

One More Day is the comic that leads into Brand New Day. Similar to No Way Home • Peter's life is magically altered. • His relationships change. • His identity becomes secret again. Its very different to no way home but still it may have some relevance or references in there.

Spider-Man vs The Punisher (2000)

With Frank Castle and Spidey crossing paths this movie I will be disappointed if they don’t clash first before having to team up and take on a bigger threat, and what better comic to portray that than the one shot Spider-Man vs The Punisher

If Tombstone ends up playing the larger role many expect, these comics are worth reading. They show: • organised crime in New York • Spider-Man acting as a neighbourhood hero • brutal gang conflicts rather than multiverse threats This feels much closer to the direction the new film is taking. Personally I think the most important ones will be Spider-Man: Brand New Day The Other Those two together seem to match the film's biggest themes: Peter rebuilding his life while dealing with unexpected changes to his powers.
