Peter Parker's son, Ben, is on a mission to save his dad in J.J. Abrams' Spider-Man mini-series, but he must first fight cyborg zombie Avengers.

The cybernetic corpses of the Avengers are one of the most recent obstacles for J.J. Abrams Spider-Man. Abrams and his son, Henry, teamed-up with Marvel in 2019 to write their own Spider-Man comic. Along with artist Sara Pichelli, the father-son duo was able to release three of the five issues of their mini-series in 2019, but were met with serious delays before completing their story. After a nine-month wait, the fourth installment of the series is finally here.

The Abrams Spider-Man mini-series follows the adventures of Peter Parkers son, Ben, as he learns that he has spider-powers of his own. Unfortunately for Ben, his resurgence as the wall-crawler brings back one of his dads former enemies: Cadaverous. Readers of the series learn that Cadaverous is the reason that Peter retires as Spider-Man, after watching the villain kill Mary Jane. In addition to losing the love of his life, Peter also loses his arm to the villain. Once Cadaverous learns that Spider-Man is back on the streets, however, he tracks down and kidnaps Peter. After watching his dad get taken by the monster, Ben, along with his friend Faye, go to Tony Stark for help and discover that Spider-Man was not the only hero to suffer at the hands of Cadaverous.

Soon after finding the former Iron Man, the heroes run into the Avengers, or at least what used to be the Avengers. Cyborg zombie versions of Captain America, Black Widow, Thor, and the Hulk appear on the scene and attack the group of heroes. This ambush is especially horrific for Tony, as these undead monsters were once his teammates. Just as things are looking bad for Ben, Faye, and Tony, however, Riri Williams arrives in her Ironheart armor to turn the tide of the battle.

After Ironhearts arrival, the heroes victory comes surprisingly easily. Riri immediately blasts down Captain America and Thor, taking them out of the fight. Ben is able to trap the Hulk in webbing and Faye blinds Black Widow with spray paint. Finally, Riri blasts the Hulk into a statue of Black Widow, breaking off the statues head and crushing the real Black Widow. Only after the fight do the heroes realize that the former Avengers were under the control of none other than Cadaverous.

Although the zombie Avengers are easily defeated, they serve as a unique and unexpected inclusion for fans to enjoy. The series does leave some unanswered questions about how they ended up in their current state though. The circumstances that led to the Avenger'sdemise remain a mystery and as well as how Cadaverous acquired their corpses. Its possible that Mary Jane was not the only big-name character that Cadaverous murdered. The Abrams story has one more issue to go and Ben Parker has quite the adventure ahead to save his dad.Spider-Man #5 is set to release in October.
