With the impending return of Peter Parker in the relaunch of his flagship comic book The Amazing Spider-Man in April, Marvel plans on expounding more on Peter's early days as the wall-crawler. In May, the publisher will release 5-issue a limited series called Year One: Learning to Crawl by Dan Slott and Ramon Perez.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Slott said, "When you're looking at things in those issues, you're going: 'Wait a minute! How did this happen? How did he get this? Where did this come from? Why didn't Aunt May ever wonder about that?'"
Slott promises to pay homage to the Stan Lee and Steve Ditko era and will explore further the character of Peter Parker the teenager and awkward high school student. "You start looking at it closer and closer and you go, 'There's a story here that we're not seeing.' A very pivotal and crucial story that lovingly respects everything that went on but tells you more, so much more about Spider-Man and so much more about Peter Parker," he added.
A new villain is set to appear as the main antagonist, a teenager same age as Peter inspired by his actions as Spider-Man.
Written by Dan Slott with art by Ramon Perez, Year One: Learning to Crawl will debut in The Amazing Spider-Man #1.1 on May 7 and run through issue #1.5. Alex Ross will provide the covers of each issue.
