I've seen some of these float by a few times on Tumblr and Twitter, but somehow I had missed that artist Hannah Blumenreich had created an entire zine of her short Spider-Man fan comics back in 2016. I really like this take on Spidey - it feels like the first fifteen minutes or so of Homecoming before the ATM robbery scene, when Peter is really stepping into that "Friendly Neighborhood" role.

Do you prefer to draw Peter Parker as a teen? You really capture the kid-like aspects of his character, especially in the sense that a lot of comics basically make him look like an adult, even when he’s meant to be in high school.

I do prefer him as a teen! I understand him as a teen, I guess. Teenage Peter Parker is a bit small and ineffective, he’s a social loser, he’s got this tragic past, but also this nerdy, upbeat, goofball demeanor, and you throw some high school drama into the mix and bam, there’s Spider-Man. Oh and I guess he’s got superpowers, too, or whatever. A minor footnote.

( A couple short stories behind the cut... )

These two and more are collected in a 19-page zine on her website. There's also an additional short story as well as some un-collected art on her Tumblr.
