Why this must be read: You know how superheroes save all these random people amidst the rampaging fights with their nemeses? Ever wonder what happens to all those ordinary people after their lives have been saved? Well wonder no longer. This long, plotty story gives a name and backstory to one of the women rescued by Spiderman, and she's exactly what you'd expect, but also so much more.

I love how full of quiet gratitude this story is; it makes me imagine a hundred other stories, of all the people silently grateful and doing little things for their heroes without any acknowledgement at all.
