Should I read the Original story or can i just read the current series?
You can completely ignore the Secret Wars mini series and jump right into the current ongoing.

You can jump right in. They only make loose references to the villain from the original and, by the fact that the other heroes are alive in this series but died in the original, things happened slightly differently in this reality's continuity
Jesus christ, did they not have enough spider-people in the marvel universe yet? Are they trying to turn it into something akin to the batfamily?

This takes place in an alternate reality.

Which is superior in every conceivable way.

Think of it less as a Spider-Family book if you must, and more of a window into a Marvel Universe that never had Bendis/JMS/Quesada bury it in an avalanche of crossover diarrhea for the past 20 years. {spoiler] I like it a lot. [/spoiler]

They've been trying to make a spider-family for years but none of the other character's books ever last.

>Jean and Logan are married with a kid while Scott has no one.
Other than that it could have been the best reality

Cranky! Glad you're here!
It's refreshing to read Peter with his life together for once and still be entertaining.
Is MJ still working for Tony Stark in 616?
>>93776867
No, now she's working for Tony's mother and some ai.

Terrible.
It's not like the original was bad

This is a separate reality where Mary Jane has powers and they have a daughter that does too. It's actually pretty good.

>This is a separate reality where Mary Jane has powers
Well...She does now.
>>93779187
OH YES SHE DOES
>>93776913
She's barely even got a presence in the book at all these days. It really raises the question of what the point was of Bendis even bringing her into the book when she never even really did anything since she's been there.
Hell I'm pretty sure the most interesting thing she's done since being there was her guest appearance in Amazing Spider-Man where she wears the Iron Spider suit.
