The Amazing Spiderman: Reborn
Volume 1 Issue 1
The Amazing Alexander Black!
"Now, back to you Richard," I heard the annoyingly high voice come from the TV that sat at the end of the kitchen counter.
"Alright, thanks Andrea," a black man turned toward the camera, " As I'm sure you all know, tomorrow, June 1, 2031, is exactly one year after Spiderman's final battle in Time Square," I looked up from my bowl of cereal.
Finally what I've been waiting for!
" The President announced today that the 1st of June every year will be a national holiday to celebrate the life of Spiderman and the lives of all superheroes. He also stated that…"
"Alex! Hurry up and get dressed! You're little brother is already dressed! It's the last day of school and you are NOT going to make him late!" The show was interrupted by my mother, a short and thin woman, with dyed red hair and a voice that said if you didn't do what she said immediately you would be in serious trouble.
"Going," I muttered, a sour look on my face.
SECRET FACILITY IN A SECRET PLACE SOMEWHERE IN THE U.S.A. [7:40]
The government facility commonly known as Area 61 was a building made of stainless steel and hidden by a large swamp surrounding it. In one of the two rooms that made up the facility is a large number of extremely advanced devices and an equally large number of people in lab coats. In the very center is a circular tube that was opened into five sections. A muscular man lay in the tube and standing right in front of him was an equally muscular man in a black suit.
"Are you ready," The man in the suit directed at the man in the tube.
The man-in-the-tube sighed heavily and said, " I was born ready."
The man in the suit turned around to a man in a lab coat, "Proceed to begin Project SPIDERMAN. Subject 12, Arnold Allen is ready."
"Yessir," the man known as Dr. Bill Safe said.
The man in the suit, Agent Lynden Clark, turned to the tube right as it began to close. "Begin," Agent Clark said.
"1…5…up to 10% now and vital signs are normal," Dr. Safe stated as he continued to pull a lever slowly.
"Good. Raise it all the way to 100%," Agent Clark commanded.
"Sir, 100% so quickly?" Dr. Safe questioned.
"Do it."
"Yes sir," Dr. Safe said and he pulled the switch all the way.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Screams of pain and fear came from the tube.
"Vital signs are weakening!" Dr. Safe said, "And they're gone."
The tube opened to show the once lively Arnold Allen, dead. "Pity. I thought he would succeed," the Agent muttered to himself as two "lab coats" came and took Arnold's body away.
"What now?" Dr. Safe asked.
"Now we find the person with the next closest DNA to Peter Parker. Now we find Subject 13."
CASADY MIDDLE SCHOOL, 3:35
RIIIING!
The bell ringed triumphantly as the final class on the final day of school ended.
"Thank God," I muttered after having been given my 7th grade Report Card, every grade an A or A+.
His recently slimmed figure hurried out of the classroom and to his locker. He stuffed the last of his books into it and began to hurry downstairs to the entrance to the school when a hand grabbed his should suddenly.
"Hey nut sack," De'Von Reya said for the 10,000th time that year. De'Von is an African American kid. He is about 5'7" and he's ripped. At the age 13 he already has a six pack. He has a black buzz and is generally a nice guy. He's really popular and loves to joke with people, especially me.
"King Dick," I joked.
"So what're you in a hurry for?" he asked curiously, "Other than that it's the last day of school."
"Nothing really. I just…" I began but just then De'Von's girlfriend, Audrey Ellen, passed by.
"Sorry, gotta go." De'Von said quickly and ran off.
"Of course," I sighed.
I had almost made it completely out of school when Bryan, one of my best friends, walked up.
"What? I really got to go," I complained.
"Oh, soooorrrry," he said sarcastically, towering over me.
"Shut up," I smiled at him.
"So, do you wanna LAN on Modern Warfare 8 later?" He asked.
"Sure," I replied. Bryan is fucking huge compared to a year ago. He was always tall but he grew 6" in a year. He also gained some weight, and not entirely muscle if you know what I mean. He has a badly cut hazel buzz cut and bad acne.
"See ya," I said, "Gotta hurry home 'cuz Mike's back."
"'Alright. Bye."
I left the building and searched through the crowd of students for my little brother. I spotted his bright ginger hair and hurried to him.
"C'mon Leon, gotta go," I grabbed his arm.
"Wha- Why? Mom's not here yet," he complained. Leon is my 12-year-old brother. He's a ginger and has a ton of freckles to prove it. He's cool and honestly, he's probably the most important person in the world to me.
"Mom said she couldn't pick us up 'cuz of a meeting and Dad's still at work. Mike isn't home yet and Katy's asleep. She hasn't answered her phone. Mom said if nobody could pick us up we could walk home. I'm leaving so if you're not then expect to have to wait multiple hours to get picked up," I said, pulling him behind me.
"Fine! Let go!" he yelled, pulling his hand away.
We walked home talking about Hero Day, as it was going to be called. Leon complained about how he wasn't with me when I saw Spiderman die (see Issue 0).
After arriving in a short thirty minutes I unlocked the door and we walked into my gigantic and currently quiet house.
"Oh hey, I was about to get you," my sister walked out in jeans and a purple shirt. My sister is 25 years old and is also a ginger like my brother. She doesn't have any freckles and she is about 5'6". She's fairly attractive and has a large bust.
"Oh, sorry. I wanted to leave and Mom said it was fine to walk," my phone suddenly vibrated in my pocket. I pulled it out and looked at it as my brother rushed upstairs.
Hey! I'm going to the mall, wanna come? The text was from my friend and crush, Macy Aerons.
I looked up at my sister, "Uh…can I go out?"
"With a girl?" she asked.
"Um…yeah," I muttered.
"Yeah, it's fine with me. Get back before 8. Mom'll be home then and so will Dad."
"Sweet! Love you!" I said in delight as I texted back, Hey! Yeah, I definitely wanna come!
I dropped my backpack onto the ground and ran upstairs to change out of my uniform. After I changed I made sure my Buzz 4, dirty blonde hair looked fine and I ran out of the house.
I walked towards the Mall in silence until I received a text from Macy that said, Awesome! Can't wait!
"Yes! This is my chance!" I exclaimed and suddenly everyone around me turned to me, "Uh, sorry. Just uh, excited," I blushed and started to walk a little faster.
I looked at the time on my phone, 4:23. If I wanna get as much time with her as possible I better hurry. I thought.
I decided to cut through an alleyway as a shortcut. When I was halfway through the alley a thick hand suddenly reached out and grabbed me with a terse grip.
I screamed and fell to the ground, the hand still gripping me. A man in a suit was holding my arm and he said, "Mr. Black, I need you to come with me. I'm Agent Lynden Clark of S.H.I.E.L.D. You're needed for a matter of national security," he showed me his badge
He dragged me up and I dumbly spout out , "I'm not supposed to follow strangers."
150,000,000 MILES AWAY FROM EARTH
"(We're almost there sister.)" A coarse, voice said in an uncomprehensible language of clicks and beeps.
"(Yes. Soon we will a take the planet Earth for our own to rebuild our kind.)" A higher, less ragged voice said in the same language.
A large greenish hued spaceship housing two green aliens was flying towards Earth at millions of miles and hour.
"(Our Symbiote will find it's Avatar and we will begin the revival of the Goablienn race.)"
Note- I hope you enjoyed this issue! Please R + R to tell me what I should do differently and better! I hope this chapter was better than the prologue and sorry it didn't have much comedy or action but that's to come. This was a setting up chapter. Also please review so I know people are reading it and liking it 'cuz if this gets lots of reviews I'll start an entire MARVEL: Reborn Universe with The Avengers, Uncanny X-Men, Fantastic Four and possibly more! Also please take into account that I haven't written in a while so the first few issues might be a little shaky but I promise it'll soon become AMAZING! And if you want proof look at my other two series (which are about Anime).
Next Issue- The Symbiote
