Just learned about this comic book, Spider-Man Fairy Tales #3. It came out this past July. Here's what it's about.
Spider-Man Fairy Tales continues with a retelling of Spider-Man's origin, fusing one of Marvel's most classic stories with a number of popular Japanese ghost stories and legends! After the death of his parents, a young Buddhist monk is taken in by his elderly aunt and uncle and has since enjoyed a peaceful life away from further pain and suffering in a secluded temple. But when an evil "tsuchigumo," or spider spirit, attacks and bites the young boy, he finds he's gained tremendous abilities which he must now use to save his temple from six sinister ghostly invaders who have come for his blood!

Dig the cover. I know I've had moments of zazen like that.
