Spiderman outs himself to the press

In the latest edition of the Marvel comic "Civil War" on sale, Spiderman does the unthinkable and removes his Spidey mask to publicly reveal his hidden identity.

"I’m proud of who I am, and I’m here right now to prove it," the legendary webslinger tells a press conference called in New York’s Times Square, before pulling off his mask and standing before the massed ranks of reporters as newspaper photographer Peter Parker.

"Any questions?"

In a statement, Marvel trumpeted the revelation as "arguably the most shocking event in comic book history."

 
I’m more than a little curious about this story line. Not enough to rush to a store, but very curious.
