As a result of the Spider-Man 3: No Way Home trailer being released, eBay has been abuzz with sales of Amazing Spider-Man #545 and#544 by Joe Michael Straczynski and Joe Quesada, the One More Day story.

It culminates in Aunt May being alive, but everyone in the world forgetting that Peter Parker and Spider-Man are the same person, after it was revealed during the comic book version of Civil War.
