Spider-Man One More Day Undone: Avengers #1 and What's Next

Spider-Man's most argued-about deal with the devil is finally coming apart. IGN reported on November 5 that Marvel has undone One More Day, and Marvel's own preview for the next Avengers issue puts that deal at the center of the book. For comic resellers, it matters because the story runs through a brand new #1 that has ratio variants.

What Avengers #1 Changes for Spider-Man

Some quick history first. In One More Day, Peter Parker and Mary Jane gave their marriage to Mephisto. In return, Aunt May lived and Peter's secret identity was hidden again. Neither of them remembered the deal afterward. Fans have argued about it for close to 20 years.

The deal started to come apart in Captain America #16, one of Marvel's October 28 releases. In that issue Doctor Doom takes the throne of Hell from Mephisto and declares all of Mephisto's contracts void. CBR walked through how writer Chip Zdarsky built to this moment across Avengers: Armageddon, Captain America and the new Avengers book.

Avengers #1 is the issue where it reaches Peter. Marvel's issue page credits Chip Zdarsky (writer), Marco Checchetto (art and cover), Matthew Wilson (colors) and Cory Petit (letters). The issue runs 39 pages and is rated T+. The team Marvel teased includes Spider-Man, Wolverine, Captain Marvel, Daredevil and Luke Cage, plus one name it kept hidden.

According to Collider, a young woman named Paige carries a strange book and tells Peter that reality is taking back what Mephisto's bargains gave. Hearing Mephisto's name brings Peter's memory back, and he realizes it was May he saved. The last page shows hunters gathering outside F.E.A.S.T., where May volunteers.

What is not confirmed

The marriage is not back. CBR points out that a voided deal does not make Peter and Mary Jane married again, and the story could still put the deal back in place before it ends. Collider also says the marriage is left open. So right now, "undone" means the deal is void in the story. It does not mean the 2007 changes have been reversed.

When and Where Avengers #1 and #2 Drop

Here are the dates and prices as Marvel and its distributor listed them. Dates can move and prices can change, so check with your shop.

• Avengers #1: on sale November 4, 2026 at a $5.99 cover price, per Marvel.
• Variants: Marvel lists a David Nakayama variant. Penguin Random House, which distributes Marvel comics to shops, lists a 1:200 Chip Zdarsky incentive variant with the same $5.99 cover price. Shops usually unlock incentive variants by ordering a set number of regular copies, and each shop prices its own.
• Avengers #2: Marvel's November 5 preview for Avengers #2 lists it for December 16. Mephisto puts together a Sinister Six of Abomination, Sabretooth, Kraven the Hunter, Carnage and Green Goblin, and Aunt May is in danger again. We could not confirm a price for #2 yet.

Marvel tells readers to pick the books up at their local comic shop. New comics come out on Wednesdays, so stop by early in the week if you want a cover or a variant before it is gone.

Early Resale Signs for Avengers #1

As of November 5, no named outlet has reported a sellout, a second printing or a count of sold listings for Avengers #1. A few shop pages show the book or its variants as sold out. That usually means the shop ran out of its own order, not that the whole print run is gone.

If you are pricing a copy, check eBay sold listings, not asking prices, and remember that Marvel can always go back to print. Big collectible headlines often move faster than the facts. The Mickey Mantle $50 million sale claim showed how much depends on what is actually confirmed. Marvel fans have more coming soon too, including the AMC Avengers: Doomsday popcorn buckets on December 17.

Bottom Line

The One More Day deal is now void in the comics, but Peter and Mary Jane are not married again, and the story continues in Avengers #2 on December 16. Here is what is confirmed for resellers: a $5.99 first issue, a 1:200 incentive variant and no reported sellout so far. Buy for your pull list at cover price, not on the headline.
