When Did Mary Jane Watson Become a Superhero?
Dan Slott and Adam Kubert brought Mary Jane and Annie Parker from Earth-18119 to life in the first issue of “Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows,” released in June 2015. The five-issue limited series followed an alternate reality where Peter Parker and Mary Jane never separated, and they raise their daughter, Annie, together as Spider-Man and his wife. The series resulted from the events of Secret Wars and portrayed a world where “One More Day” never happened.
The creators relaunched “Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows” as an ongoing series in November 2016. The new series elevated Mary Jane to a superhero, Spinneret, while Annie also donned the Spiderling suit. In issue #13, “Renew Your Vows,” took a leap forward in time by eight years, showcasing Annie’s teenage years. The series reached its conclusion with issue #23 in September 2018, wrapping up its second iteration.
