The [[LongRunner longest run]] of ComicBook/SpiderMan by any writer in its history branching off from ''ComicBook/BrandNewDay'', saw Creator/DanSlott, who had been contributing to the previous era's "Webhead" brain trust since 2008, emerge as the sole writer starting in 2010. Dan Slott's helm as writer has seen the franchise achieve several critically and commercially well-received story arcs. The creation of several popular spin-off titles have also resulted in the comic line effectively evolving into becoming a "Spider-Family." Slott ended his run with one last story arc -- "Go Down Swinging" -- in 2018, succeeded by ''ComicBook/TheAmazingSpiderMan2018''.

Several notable changes that Slott has introduced into the mythos includes Peter finally transitioning from being a photographer into being a full-blown scientist, first working for Horizon Labs and then later, after the Superior Spider-Man incident, working as the owner of Parker Industries, Black Cat's [[FaceHeelTurn return to villain-hood]] as the new "Queenpin of Crime", several large stakes events that had Peter fight for not only the safety of New York, but the multiverse itself, and the Spider-Family becoming solidified both in universe and in Marvel proper as a sustainable pillar to the comics.

!!Notable storylines created during this run includes:

* ''Big Time'' published at the end of ''Brand New Day'' that saw him introduce the original villain Mr. Negative.

* ''ComicBook/SpiderVerse''[[/index]]
* A group of story arcs about Peter becoming a successful tech tycoon and having SpyFiction adventures, collected as ''Worldwide'' volumes 1-7.[[index]]

* AllJustADream: In ''The Amazing Spider-Man Vol. 4 #32'', Norman Osborn [[spoiler:learns the Mystic Arts, rejects his tiger totem for a Green Goblin one, and defeats Spider-Man with magic. However, this is revealed to be part of a test to see if Osborn is worthy of learning magic in the first place. He failed, but it shows him that, despite Peter's cure for the Goblin serum, Norman's "true" self still exists within him.]]
* BattleCouple: Spidey and Mockingbird after their RelationshipUpgrade in ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #789.
* ButForMeItWasTuesday: In ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' Vol. 4 #11, Scorpio tries to get one last shot at Spider-Man by stating he still knows everything that's happened over the last year, including that very day, and that something terrible is coming to destroy Spider-Man's world. Spidey retorts that happens to him every Tuesday, so as final threats go. . . not that impressive.
* CoolOldLady: Aunt May takes a level or two in badass after ''Worldwide'', helping to manage Parker Industries. She pretty much runs the Uncle Ben Foundation, flying all over the world to oversee its humanitarian relief efforts, and is a majority shareholder of the company, a position she's not afraid to use if someone at PI needs a stern talking-to.
* CrazyJealousGuy: Peter Parker during the entire ''Regent'' arc. He literally goes berserk at the thought that Mary Jane could be dating Tony (even if they weren't), and that extends to him getting into a TestosteronePoisoning slug fest with Iron Man over things as petty as Youtube commenters liking Iron Man more, to Tony befriending Miles Morales, and finally culminating, after Stark good-naturedly jibing that he could give Spidey better tech than Peter, with Peter punching Iron Man in a face and starting a brawl for no real reason other than maybe his ex is moving on without him (just like he's been doing with many girls).
* CrimefightingWithCash: The ''Worldwide'' era.
* FaceHeelTurn:
** ComicBook/BlackCat becomes a villain once more, after feeling betrayed and humiliated that "Peter" caused her to go to prison. Even after learning that it was Otto controlling Peter's body, [[HeelFaceDoorSlam Felicia rebukes any appeal for redemption.]] She eventually changes this stance after making peace with Spider-Man, and Eddie Brock convinces her to return to her roots as an anti-hero thief.
** Also in the ''Clone Conspiracy'' storyline, where central antagonist The Jackal is revealed to be [[spoiler:Ben Reilly, the original Scarlet Spider]].
* ForcedIntoEvil: Peter and Mockingbird beat up some guys in a Hong Kong backhouse, because they're all Asians, and it makes Peter feel uncomfortable.
* GrandFinale: The "Go Down Swinging" arc was Slott's final work as head writer Spider-Man.
* GroinAttack: Mockingbird pulls one on Griffin in ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #789, who's robbing an empanata truck, with her teaser batons. Complete with a joke about "today's special includes fried huevos." Clearly, Peter's a bad influence on her.
* IHaveNoSon: Inverted. In Vol. 4, Harry disowns Norman as his father and takes on his mother's maiden name in retaliation.
* {{Irony}}: In ''Worldwide'', Peter is a tech magnate like Tony Stark. Which book did Slott leave ASM to go write next? Yes, ComicBook/IronMan, whose series has that setup as its default status quo.
* IncrediblyLamePun: Peter really ''is'' a bad influence on Bobbi Morse. In ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #794, Scorpio tries to use his Zodiac Key at a special receptacle he built into Big Ben, claiming he's invincible with his mind controlling the key. Bobbi socks him on the jaw.
-->'''Bobbi''': Your mind, huh? So does it still work when you '''clock out?'''
* PassThePopcorn: The Jackal's new tech doesn't just clone people, it straight-up brings them back from the dead, memories and personality intact. Otto Octavius, currently trapped in solitary Octo-bot, gets his body into the Jackal's hands so he can be resurrected. Once he realizes the full scope of the tech, he also realizes the personality within that body is not his, but Peter Parker's, and instead of just adding his recent memories, he'll have to defeat Peter in a BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind. Jackal, watching something going oddly this time, doesn't get quite what's happening, but knows it'll be fascinating, and demands popcorn. Which he's seen munching on when Otto emerges victorious.
* PortmanteauCoupleName: InUniverse, Spidey suggests "Spockingbird" for the Spider-Man[=/=]Mockingbird team-up-with-benefits. Bobbi's reaction is "[[NoJustNoReaction No. God, no]]."
* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: Mockingbird assists Spidey with his hunt for Norman Osborn, eventually quitting SHIELD when they demand Spider-Man turn himself in.
* ShipSinking: Peter with both Carlie Cooper and Mary Jane in the wake of ''ComicBook/SuperiorSpiderMan'', where both women agree that the price is too high to be in a relationship with Peter.
* SpyFiction: Much of the ''Worldwide'' era. TuxedoAndMartini variety.
* UnclePennybags: The ''Worldwide'' storyline sees Parker Industries become a global sensation and Peter essentially become the new Tony Stark. [[spoiler: But, this being Earth-616, choked with StatusQuoIsGod, doesn't last as Spidey is forced to destroy his new company to prevent a resurrected Doc Ock/Superior Ock and HYDRA from using his assets in their goal for conquering the world during ''ComicBook/SecretEmpire'', leaving Peter back to being broke as the day he was born, once again a LovableLoser. Fan reaction was... ''unimpressed''.]]

* OutdatedOutfit: Exaggerated in the "Learning to Crawl" side series published after Peter got his body back from Otto Octavius. Set in the days right after Peter first got bit, and focusing on his earliest trials of being Spider-Man and engaging with another budding superhero/villain named Clash, the series features art that's a deliberate throwback to the Lee/Ditko era, while simultaneously talking about posting Spider-Man's first fight with Crusher Hogan on [[BlandNameProduct MeTube]], texting, going viral, etc.
* RememberTheNewGuy: Remember Clash? That sound-based supervillain who was Spidey's first real adversary following Uncle Ben's death? No? That's because Dan Slott [[{{Retcon}} retconned]] him into Peter's origin in ''[[OriginsEpisode Learning To Crawl]]''.

* AntiHeroSubstitute: The entire point of ''ComicBook/SuperiorSpiderMan'', showing what would happen if Doctor Octopus was Spider-Man.
* ArcWelding: Tiberius Stone, a villain from a villain from Frank Tieri's ''ComicBook/IronMan'' run reappeared--and was revealed to by the father of Tyler Stone and thus the grandfather of [[ComicBook/SpiderMan2099 Miguel O'Hara]].
* AllJustADream: In ''The Amazing Spider-Man Vol. 4 #32'', Norman Osborn [[spoiler:learns the Mystic Arts, rejects his tiger totem for a Green Goblin one, and defeats Spider-Man with magic. However, this is revealed to be part of a test to see if Osborn is worthy of learning magic in the first place. He failed, but it shows him that, despite Peter's cure for the Goblin serum, Norman's "true" self still exists within him.]]
* BattleCouple: Spidey and Mockingbird after their RelationshipUpgrade in ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #789.
* BigBad: With Norman Osborn OutOfFocus for much of the first run, Doc Ock ends up stepping back up as Spider-Man's ArchEnemy. This does a strange switch in that come ''Dying Wish'', the arc following ''ComicBook/EndsOfTheEarth'', has Ock enact his ''true'' swan song plot: [[GrandTheftMe using a small Octobot to swap minds with Spidey, achieving his final victory over his mortal enemy by ''becoming'' him]], [[KillAndReplace leaving Peter to die in his own cancer-ridden body]]. While Peter (reluctantly) has the Sinister Six break him out of Ryker's Island to attempt to reverse this, he actually ends up ''failing'' and does die, but not before using his memories to provoke a HeelRealization in Octavius, inspiring the villain to carry on as Spider-Man, and ''actually dies''. From then on, Otto resolves to both honor and one-up Peter by becoming a "Superior Spider-Man", instead taking a practical and ruthless approach to fighting crime. Norman however returns as a

* BrokenAesop: Dan Slott intended ''Superior Spider-Man'' to show why Otto's approach to fighting crime was ultimately inferior to Peter's. The problem is that unlike the case of DC Stories which experimented with AntiHeroSubstitute, ''Superior Spider-Man'' runs for 30+ issues, and creates a status-quo that remains default for the remainder of Slott's run and well into Spencer's run. In other words, Otto's crime-fighting methods and abilities are shown as effective until the inevitable ResetButton and the idea that Peter is the real deal is more informed than shown and [[spoiler:by letting Otto of the hook for his actions in ''Ends of the Earth'' and for hijacking his identity at the end of his run, Slott has his cake and eats it too]].
* ButForMeItWasTuesday: In ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' Vol. 4 #11, Scorpio tries to get one last shot at Spider-Man by stating he still knows everything that's happened over the last year, including that very day, and that something terrible is coming to destroy Spider-Man's world. Spidey retorts that happens to him every Tuesday, so as final threats go. . . not that impressive.
* ContinuityPorn: Many minor supporting characters make a surprise appearance, especially in issue #655, No One Dies. In issue #795, Loki mentions still owing Peter a favour and Peter vaguely recalls "making a deal with someone like Loki, then losing something very important", both plot points from the JMS run on the book (and, infamously, ''One More Day''). Slott did this deliberately to create a cohesive impression that somehow every Spider-Man story Post-OMD still happened, even if the context was altered.
* CoolOldLady: Aunt May takes a level or two in badass after ''Worldwide'', helping to manage Parker Industries. She pretty much runs the Uncle Ben Foundation, flying all over the world to oversee its humanitarian relief efforts, and is a majority shareholder of the company, a position she's not afraid to use if someone at PI needs a stern talking-to.
* CrazyJealousGuy: Peter Parker during the entire ''Regent'' arc. He literally goes berserk at the thought that Mary Jane could be dating Tony (even if they weren't), and that extends to him getting into a TestosteronePoisoning slug fest with Iron Man over things as petty as Youtube commenters liking Iron Man more, to Tony befriending Miles Morales, and finally culminating, after Stark good-naturedly jibing that he could give Spidey better tech than Peter, with Peter punching Iron Man in a face and starting a brawl for no real reason other than maybe his ex is moving on without him (just like he's been doing with many girls).
* CrimefightingWithCash: The ''Worldwide'' era.
* DemandOverload: InUniverse. In ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #533, when Spider-Man publicly revealed his secret identity, the Internet broke down because too many people were trying to do a name search on "Peter Parker" simultaneously.
* DramaticDislocation: In ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #575, Spider-Man does this in order to put a ''dislocated jaw'' back into place after battling Hammerhead. Proportionate strength of a spider + metal garbage bin = ''ow''.
* FaceHeelTurn:
** In the post-Superior Spider-Man relaunch, ComicBook/BlackCat becomes a villain once more, feeling betrayed and humiliated that "Peter" caused her to go to prison. Even after learning that it was Otto controlling Peter's body, [[HeelFaceDoorSlam Felicia rebukes any appeal for redemption.]] She eventually changes this stance after making peace with Spider-Man, and Eddie Brock convinces her to return to her roots as an anti-hero thief.
** Also in the Clone Conspiracy storyline, where central antagonist The Jackal is revealed to be [[spoiler:Ben Reilly, the original Scarlet Spider]].

* ForcedIntoEvil: Peter and Mockingbird beat up some guys in a Hong Kong backhouse, because they're all Asians, and it makes Peter feel uncomfortable.
* FreakLabAccident: How Andy Maguire, soon-to-be Alpha, got his powers in a parallel to Spidey.
* GrandFinale: The "Go Down Swinging" arc will be Slott's final work on Spider-Man.
* GretzkyHasTheBall: ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #583 used this as part of SpotTheImpostor involving Barack Obama, of all people. It all starts with trouble at the Presidential Inauguration -- namely, ''two'' Obamas showing up, each claiming to be the real one. Spidey swings in and points out that Obama played basketball in college, leading to a Secret Service agent suggesting a three-point shootout to determine the real president. The fake Obama [[spoiler:who is actually the Chameleon in disguise]] begins sweating and stammers something like "even if we did find a basketball field, where will we find an umpire at this hour?" Sadly, this means that the world's first three-point shootout between a supervillain and a U.S. president has yet to happen. Ironically, two of the three officials for a college basketball game ''are'' called umpires (the third, the crew chief, is the only referee), but even rabid fans of the sport often don't know this, unless they have officiated themselves.
* GroinAttack: Mockingbird pulls one on Griffin in ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #789, who's robbing an empanata truck, with her teaser batons. Complete with a joke about "today's special includes fried huevos." Clearly, Peter's a bad influence on her.
* HeroicBSOD: Peter undergoes one after the death of Marla Jameson. In his stressed induced unconsciousness, he's surrounded by everyone he's known who has died since taking the mantle.
* IHaveNoSon: Inverted. Harry disowns Norman as his father and takes on his mother's maiden name in retaliation.
* {{Irony}}: In ''Worldwide'', Peter is a tech magnate like Tony Stark. Which book did Slott leave ASM to go write next? Yes, ComicBook/IronMan, a hero who has that setup as his default status quo.
* TheHeroDies: Peter himself, in ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #700, thanks to getting stuck in Doctor Octopus' dying body. He gets better.
* IncrediblyLamePun: Peter really ''is'' a bad influence on Bobbi Morse. In ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #794, Scorpio tries to use his Zodiac Key at a special receptacle he built into Big Ben, claiming he's invincible with his mind controlling the key. Bobbi socks him on the jaw.
-->'''Bobbi''': Your mind, huh? So does it still work when you '''clock out?'''

* KilledOffForReal: Marla Jameson and Ashley Kafka. [[spoiler: It was believed following ''Dying Wish'' that the same could be said for ''Peter himself'']].
* LargeHam: Doctor Octopus just can't stop with the monologuing, ever. It becomes even more pronounced after ''Superior Spider-Man''.

* MythologyGag: The civilian name of Alpha, Spider-Man's sidekick[=/=]protege introduced in ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #692? [[Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan Andrew]] [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy Maguire]].
* NeverFoundTheBody: Silver Sable presumably bites the bullet in the ''Ends Of the Earth'' storyline. [[spoiler:She eventually came back in 2017, revealing she'd actually survived and gone into hiding.]]
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: In ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #693, While Spidey rescues Alpha from The Jackal, he at one point tries to encourage Alpha to free himself. Unfortunately, he makes the mistake of telling Andy that he'd lose his powers if The Jackal managed to drain them from him, prompting Andy/Alpha to break free and state that he would rather die [[IJustWantToBeSpecial than lose his powers and go back to being a powerless nobody]] like Jackal's failed clones. It's after this incident that he emancipates himself from his parents, strikes out with the family lawyer for greater fame and profit, and also becomes even more conceited than he already was. Not quite the result Peter had hoped for.
* NotSoDifferentRemark: In regards to Alpha, MJ points out to Peter their similarities. Deep down, Peter knew that if it weren't for the tragedy of losing Uncle Ben, he'd probably be doing exactly the same things Alpha was doing then.
* OutdatedOutfit: Exaggerated in the "Learning to Crawl" side series published after Peter got his body back from Otto Octavius. Set in the days right after Peter first got bit, and focusing on his earliest trials of being Spider-Man and engaging with another budding superhero/villain named Clash, the series features art that's a deliberate throwback to the Lee/Ditko era, while simultaneously talking about posting Spider-Man's first fight with Crusher Hogan on [[BlandNameProduct MeTube]], texting, going viral, etc.

* PerpetualTourist: During ''The Gauntlet'' arc, Mysterio's ultimate goal when he takes over the Maggia is to grab as much money as he can, and "buy an island in the tropics where I can sit under palm trees and drink things out of coconuts".
* PortmanteauCoupleName: InUniverse, Spidey suggests "Spockingbird" for the Spider-Man[=/=]Mockingbird team-up-with-benefits. Bobbi's reaction is "[[NoJustNoReaction No. God, no]]."
* RememberTheNewGuy: Remember Clash? That sound-based supervillain who was Spidey's first real adversary following Uncle Ben's death? No? That's because Dan Slott [[{{Retcon}} retconned]] him into Peter's origin in ''[[OriginsEpisode Learning To Crawl]]''.
* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: Mockingbird assists Spidey with his hunt for Norman Osborn, eventually quitting SHIELD when they demand Spider-Man turn himself in.
* ShipSinking: Peter with both Carlie Cooper and Mary Jane in the wake of ''ComicBook/SuperiorSpiderMan'', where both women agree that the price is too high to be in a relationship with Peter.
* ShooOutTheNewGuy: Alpha certainly seems to come off as this. Andy has many parallels to Peter, with the major differences being he was an average, underachieving nobody[[note]]Peter at least had the whole 'science geek' thing going for him[[/note]] before he got his powers and after he got them, he never really learned to be [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatResponsibility responsible]] with them like Peter had, using them to become famous. He was even given a bit of hype before his appearance ''and'' became Spidey's sidekick only to be promptly de-powered by Spidey himself after one mistake too many in the third issue he appeared in, seemingly dropping off the face of the earth. In fact, one of the fuels for his rashness was an in-universe comment on his fansite calling him ''ThePoochie''!
* SpyFiction: Much of the ''Worldwide'' era. TuxedoAndMartini variety.

* ThousandYardStare: Alpha, immediately after Spider-Man de-powers him.

* UnclePennybags: The Post-ComicBook/{{Secret Wars|2015}} storyline sees Parker Industries become a global sensation and Peter essentially become the new Tony Stark.
