okay so I kind of want to do something new on my channel I kind of want to do something different I want to sit down and actually cover some more what if books on my channel now as you all know what if is a line of books that Marvel does here and there to kind of say what if different moments in your favorite character's lives went in a different direction so for example what if Spider-Man did not get married to Mary Jane of course that would have came out before one day had actually happened but
that book did come out and it said what if Peter Parker did not get married to Mary Jane well he would most likely marry black cat and there were so many different what if books now they did slow down for a period of time but in the early 2000s they did pick right back up again but most of the what of books really did focus on the big moments in the early 2000s so for example there was one for what if Siege there was another one for what if Spider-Man the other and you had this
one right here what if Spider-Man Back in Black now Back in Black was actually a five-part story arc that took place right after Civil War but led straight into one more day and for me personally Back in Black was kind of like part two to a Trilogy because all three big moments Civil War Back in Black and also one more day it begun the process of leading us to Peter Parker's new start with brand new day of course the idea that Peter Parker and Mary Jane were no longer together it never happened and all that
stuff anyways though Back in Black really did pick up where Civil War left off F you see back in Civil War you had this new law coming into effect by the American government the idea that if you were going to be a superhero in America you had to Res the problem was you had some Heroes who disagree with this law so for example if you're on Iron Man's side you agreed with the law but if you on Steve Rogers side in Civil War you disagreed with the law now when it came to Peter he agreed
with Iron Man at first but see here's the problem you see even though you do agree with the law you have to tell the world who you are your secret identity and so Peter had to tell the entire world that he was Spiderman now here comes the problems though you see at First Peter was worried about the lies of Aunt May and Mary Jane because now his enemies have a way to get at him by using them but then they were protected by Tony Stark and his side but then Peter said you know what I
feel like Iron Man is wrong in this and so he has switched sides and join Steve Rogers side you see when Nick Kan and Steve Rogers side they all disagreed with the law which made them Outlaws which made Peter Parker an outlaw and so Peter Parker Aunt May Mary Jane they were always on the run trying their best to get away from the law now they were doing a decent job but not good enough to hide from an assassin that was hired by the Kingpin now the Assassin his goal was to take out Peter Parker
but Peter spider since kicked in and he was able to get away but the sniper then took out anme and so aay got shot and as we all know she died and that led into one more day now in the original backin black story arc Peter had grabed a black suit to go after the Kingpin to beat him down and he did and now when Kingpin realized how powerful Peter Parker could truly be now the what if book says what if the Kingpin did not just get beaten down by Peter what if the Kingpin was
actually killed off by Spider-Man you see getting into the what if book we actually pick up with Peter Parker a May and Mary Jane right before the sniper took his shot now like I said earlier though the sniper was hired by the Kingpin to kill off Peter Parker except Peter got out of the way and it hit a may but in this what if book Peter still gets out of the way but unfortunately Mary Jane gets shot this time and when she gets shot she is instantly killed right at that moment now you have the
sniper being able to take another shot at Peter Parker and when he does that he believes his job is done yes he killed Mary Jane but he did kill off Peter now Peter was not actually killed off Peter was able to take the shot he got back up and came behind a sniper to take him out now before you have Peter Parker being able to kill off the Assassin he does ask the Assassin who sent you and the Assassin tells them it was the Kingpin now right after Peter learns that the Assassin still believes that
he might be able to take out Peter Parker if he's able to grab his gun except when he does Peter grabs it and shoots him to basically kill him now Peter now knows it was the Kingpin who had sent an assassin to come come after him now for Peter this is all the kingpin's fault if the Kingpin wanted him dead and now Mary Jane's dead is the kingpin's fault not his at all for Peter it's not over yet he has to get his revenge and so now he wants to go after the Kingpin now once
you have Peter being able to get back to his hotel room he goes straight towards the bathroom and the reason why to put on the black suit now something I do want to mention is that this black suit is not the symbiot suit it's a cloth suit that he made to look very similar to his Symbio suit either way though is him saying I'm going after the Kingpin he has to die now Aunt May she knows that Peter is most likely very serious here because this man just lost his wife right in front of him
but she tries her best to talk him down but Peter is not listening he even says we're outlaws like you don't understand we can't give her a proper funeral and on top of that the Kingpin is not going to stop until I'm officially dead which means on May he could come after you as well and so you have Peter tell may go to Stark Tower go see Jarvis cuz I know you and him are close friends so go there you'll be safe and I'm going to take care of the king pin now Iron Man does
get involved in this as well and here is the reason why you see in the original story The Kingpin was actually in prison and so in this one he's also in prison again but here's the thing he now knows that Peter Parker is coming after him he needs better protection and he demanded it and he got it and so they called up Iron Man like hey dude listen we got word that Spider-Man is coming after the king pin and let's not forget that your job is to take out Heroes who go against the law and
right now that is Spider-Man also he might kill off the Kingpin and so unfortunately Iron Man has no choice but to go out there protect the Kingpin but also fight against Spider-Man now once you have Peter being able to arrive at the prison Spider-Man does see the Kingpin and he wants to go ahead and kill off the Kingpin but the problem is Iron Man arrives and Iron Man's there to protect the Kingpin from Spider-Man and so we do get a battle between Iron Man and Spider-Man now this battle for me is honestly pretty good now
at first this is Peter telling Tony you don't understand what I am going through because I just lost my wife for you Tony you never had a wife you never had a girlfriend you love that much like I did for Mary Jane now for Tony we can tell that line right there it hurt him a lot because technically it's really true that Peter Parker and Mary Jane's love was on a whole different level and most characters in Marvel Universe could not even reach that kind of level and so for Iron Man is kind of like
yeah I mean I guess you're right but still I can't allow you to kill that man and so you have Iron Man try his best to stop Peter Parker the problem is this is a Peter Parker who's no longer holding back this band is Cutting Loose to get to the Kingpin now for Iron Man he says this is the perfect example of why we had this law in effect because Heroes just Cutting Loose can end up killing somebody and that is a huge problem and so we continue to see Iron Man try his best to
bring down Spider-Man but he can't stop Peter now here's the thing for Peter Parker he tells Tony I know how to break down your suit I may not be as smart as you but let's not forget you gave me an iron suit the iron spider suit and we saw that back in Civil War and Peter said I studied that suit from top to bottom which means I know how to work that suit and work your suit as well and so while you have Iron Man and Spider-Man fighting Peter is able to shut down the armored
suit of iron man so that he's able to continue on and go after the Kingpin now once you have Spider-Man being able to catch up to the Kingpin we do learn the officers who were transporting Kingpin to another safe facility were actually working for him and so we do see that they were able to also grab Aunt May she's now a hostage and so you have keen say listen if you want to see her free you have to fight against me and don't try to go around me to save her if you want to get
to her you got to take me down and so we do see Kingpin and Spider-Man fight against one another now this fight lasts for like three pages and really the first two pages it's just Peter Parker dodging his attacks and then when Peter is ready he takes out Kingpin and one single blow bam just like that the Kingpin is dead and it's kind of like oh yeah he was actually serious because this man lost his wife and he believed the only way to take care of that kind of problem is to kill the person responsible
for the death of his wife now you have up made tell Peter Parker that she wants nothing to do with Peter at all the idea that he kills somebody tells her the boy that she had raised is no longer around now for Peter he does let the officers go ahead had and arrest him to kind of say that I hope I do get a trial to kind of show the world our country at least that maybe what I did is not actually wrong that maybe what I did Should Be A New Path us Heroes should
actually take and then he gets taken to jail and that wraps up today's comic book video so please leave me a like down below and subscribe also if you have any suggestions on books I should read well please let me know in the comments below because you never know your suggestion could be a future video down the road but guys see y' next time later
