The Mafia cold war was a cold war between the Mafia crime families of New York City, including the Manfredi Mob.
History
Prelude
As of 2024, war between the mobs of New York City had apparently ceased, allowing crime families, such as the Manfredi Mob, to handle their own affairs without worrying.[1]
Interruption
After Spider-Man's return to NYC following the Blip, the wall-crawler had an altercation with members of the Manfredi Mob, finding them in an mob-owned upper-class restaurant and fighting them until he trapped all of them–sellers, buyers and rival informants–with his synthetic webbing, leaving them for pickup by the New York City Police Department unit led by Officer Bristow, who arrived just as Spidey was about the leave the establishment.[2]
Aftermath
In the wake of the attack towards the Manfredi Mob, however, J. Jonah Jameson from The Daily Bugle commented on the outlet that Spider-Man had only worsened the matter and that now the Mafia cold war of NYC had gone hot for his fault.[1]
