Marvel is giving fans of Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson a lot to be thankful for right now in the rebooted Ultimate Spider-Man, in which they’re married with kids. And now the happy couple are also giving thanks on Terry and Rachel Dodson’s new Norman Rockwell inspired cover for Ultimate Spider-Man #11, which shows the Watson-Parker family sitting down to a Thanksgiving meal.
The pose is adapted, of course, from Rockwell’s iconic painting ‘Freedom From Want,’ which depicts an extended family sharing a classic American Thanksgiving turkey dinner, but with a Spidey twist that is sure to tug at the heartstrings of the many readers who love seeing Peter and MJ together.

On that note, Ultimate Spider-Man is certainly delivering on that promise, with Peter sharing his secret identity as Spider-Man with MJ and their kids Richard and May (named after Peter’s father and aunt, both of whom are deceased in the new Ultimate Universe).
He’s also shared it with none other than Norman Osborn, the Green Goblin, who has become Peter’s close friend and ally as they work together to learn the ropes of being superheroes.
