Marvel has just announced via USA today their new story for Spider-Man, set for Spring 2014 - Spider-Man: Family Business
While the name may seem pretty normal, we are about to see a new status quo change in Spider-Man's life. Set to take place before the events to Amazing Spider-Man # 700, this story will introduce a new character, namely Peter Parker's sister - Teresa Parker.
The writers for the story will be Mark Waid and James Robinson, with art by Gabrielle Dell'otto. Mark Waid states that :
"It seems very bizarre to him that Aunt May never mentioned anything about this woman, who's about his age and the resemblance is there,".
"Peter wants to try to figure out what this mystery is all about but basically they're running from a crime syndicate out to kill them both throughout the novel, so there's not a whole lot of time for Spider-Man to sit and relax and slowly suss this out."
The plot involves Peter being hunted down by a Crime syndicate headed by the King Pin, who is taking his criminal empire worldwide. The story will expound on Peter's family life, from the death of his parents, to his life as an orphan, and obviously to his new found sister.
