We’re still in the middle of a bad economy and not even superheros are safe from the affects. Peter Parker’s latest story line has him getting fired. Starting in Amazing Spider-Man #623, on sale March 3rd, Peter loses his job at the Mayor’s office. Peter tries to protect J. Jonah Jameson and the city and in the meantime loses his career as a photographer. There’s always weddings Petey. I’ve learned people make quite a bit doing that.

This storyline will follow Peter to see if he can handle being a Super Hero when he can’t pay his bills.

“Peter Parker’s been through some rough times lately, with all of his deadliest foes returning, and he couldn’t lose his job at a worse time” said Senior Editor Steve Wacker. “He’s going to struggle with unemployment and trying to save the city while he can barely afford to keep a roof over his head.”

The next issue in this storyline will be available on March 10.
