In 2000, Marvel launched the Ultimate Universe, rebooting Spider-Man and his myth for a new millennium! Now, the first three years of the popular and award-winning take on the hero by Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley are gathered in a large volume! Relive Peter Parker's early days as Spider-Man, learning to fight crime through trial and error, as he tries to balance his new life with the demands of high school: teenage angst, chores, and dating! Even with the help of his best friend, Mary Jane Watson, Peter has a heavy load to bear. But the rookie Spider-Man is making enemies left and right - including the Green Goblin, Kingpin, Doctor Octopus, Kraven the Hunter, and the maniacal Venom - and unless he can rise to the challenge, Spidey might not survive until the dance! Collects ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN (2000) #1-39 and #1/2.
