''Avenging Spider-Man'' is a 2011 limited series from Creator/MarvelComics, starring the titular ComicBook/SpiderMan.

Taking place during Spider-Man's stint as a member of ''ComicBook/TheAvengers'', Spider-Man teams up with various heroes.

The first issue was released November 09, 2011.

!! ''Avenging Spider-Man'' contains the following tropes:
* BadassNormal: In issue #4, ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}} confides in Spider-Man that there is an enormous amount of pressure on him as a BadassNormal on the same team as Captain America, Thor, Iron Man & the Hulk, and subsequently he has to train constantly in order to make sure his accuracy is superhuman, in effect meaning ''he cannot miss''.
* TheBreakfastClubPosterHomage: In issue #12, Peter and ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} explores Peter's dreams to find out who is trying to infiltrate his brain. At one point, Peter dreams characters into ''The Breakfast Club'', which is introduced [[https://i1.wp.com/www.bleedingcool.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/115.jpg?resize=600%2C447&ssl=1 with a shout-out]] to the original poster. Peter is Brian, redheaded love interest Mary Jane is Claire, jock frenemy Flash is Andrew, Deadpool himself is Bender...and he doesn't know who Allison is, so the person impersonating her must be the villain. It turns out to be Hypno-Master.
-->'''Deadpool:''' What a weirdo. You couldn't be dreaming of ''Film/MeanGirls''?
* ByronicHero: Otto in Peter's certainly tries to do good, but his old habits and methods keep getting in the way.
* ClosetGeek: In ''Avenging Spider-Man'', ProudToBeAGeek Peter Parker is ecstatic to discover that Steve Rogers used to draw comic books, and Steve is less than happy to talk about it because he doesn't think it's very ComicBook/CaptainAmerica. He relents at the end, though, when he realizes this attitude has somewhat dented Spidey's view of him, and the story ends with him showing Peter some new comics he's drawn and asking what he thinks.
* DefeatByModesty: In ''Avenging Spider-Man'', Spider-Man defeats a subterranean warlord in combat for leadership of his people who was handily beating him after finishing off the ComicBook/RedHulk by swinging a shard on a webline and cutting off his loincloth. Turns out shaming someone in battle also counts as besting them.
* DependingOnTheWriter: In issue #16 (written by Christopher Yost) Wolverine is suspicious of Spider-Man's new attitude and actions (particularly when Otto loses patience and [[CurbStompBattle absolutely thrashes him]]) to the point of trying to get Rachel Grey to scan his mind to verify he's actually Spidey. In the main series he's consistently the Avenger most supportive of Spidey when the other Avengers challenge him.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Otto in Peter's body scoffs at [[ComicBook/AntMan Scott Lang's]] past in thievery as if he hasn't done anything as petty. In another issue, his monologue concerning the Hobgoblin is about how the villain's smugness and thoughts of being better than everyone else grates on him.
* TeamUpSeries: Each issue is a team up between Spider-Man and another hero.
* UnresolvedSexualTension: ComicBook/SpiderMan's and ComicBook/MsMarvel's UST is brought back in an arc in the series.
* VerbalTic: Parodied in issue #5, when ComicBook/TheAvengers get hold of one of [[ComicBook/CaptainAmerica Steve Rogers]]' extremely patriotic Golden Age comic strips, and suggest that the only way to read it is that all the characters are compelled to say "Liberty Bonds" in every sentence.
