Introduction by Roger Stern

Collection Editor: Cory Sedlmeier

Roger Stern’s seminal run on Spectacular Spider-Man concludes and Bill Mantlo returns for a second fan favorite stint! After a run-in with the Jack O’ Lantern, Spider-Man must protect Marla Madison (scientist and J. Jonah Jameson’s one true love) from the deadly Will O’ the Wisp. The Ringer menaces Spider-Man’s world in a tale drawn by John Byrne, setting up a double-sized issue featuring Stern’s retelling of Spider-Man’s origin. Then, Bill Mantlo comes aboard, pitting Spider-Man against a cavalcade of his deadliest rogues: Kraven, Electro and the Molten Man! And in one of the most timeless tales of Spectacular history, teen-runaways-turned-heroes Cloak and Dagger make their first appearance! Plus: An Annual that takes Spider-Man to the “Dark Side of the Moon” with Man-Wolf!
