Spiderman "Outs himself"

In what Marvel Comics calls "arguably the most shocking event in comic book history" Spiderman drops a bombshell.

At a press conference in Times Square, he pulls off his mask, reveals himself as news photographer Peter Parker and says:

"I'm proud of who I am, and I'm here right now to prove it..."

"Any questions?" he asks in the final panel of the issue, amid a barrage of camera flashes.

WHOA!
