After years of dating and breaking up, Mary Jane Watson and Peter Parker finally decided to tie the knot in 1987. Featured in Amazing Spider-Man Annual #21, The Wedding! is a fairly straightforward tale about the Webslinger’s upcoming nuptials. But despite the cliché story beats, writer Dave Michelinie does add some realism by detailing the cold feet that both Mary Jane and Peter get before the marriage.



Unlike most superhero weddings, this ceremony goes off without a hitch...for the most part. Despite a brief fight with Electro a few days before the big day, Spider-Man’s wedding is never hampered by super-powered throwdowns or battles. It's a nice story that rewards longtime fans waiting for the character to grow up.



And because things in this world rarely make any sense, Marvel simultaneously held a publicity event featuring actors dressed like Spider-Man and Mary Jane getting married in Shea Stadium. You can almost see Stan Lee’s pockets bursting at the seams with all of the money he was given to take part in this awful event. Watch, and cringe, for yourselves.
