## Key points

- Doom has voided contracts made with Mephisto.
- Spider-Man’s altered history may be at stake.
- Marvel has teased a “1 Day” project for June 2027.

## Summary

Doctor Doom’s takeover of hell in *Captain America* #16 has made contracts with Mephisto null and void, potentially setting the stage to undo the deal at the centre of *One More Day*. The 2007 story altered Spider-Man’s reality and has shaped his comics for nearly two decades, so reversing it could have major consequences for Peter Parker and Mary Jane.

In *One More Day*, Peter made a deal with Mephisto to save Aunt May, giving up his marriage to Mary Jane in return. The resulting rewrite also changed who knew Peter was Spider-Man and restored Harry Osborn to life. A panel in *Captain America* #16 hints that Spider-Man senses a change, but the outcome is not confirmed; writer Chip Zdarsky is also set to write an Avengers story featuring the team facing Mephisto, while Marvel has teased a project called “1 Day” for June 2027.
