As Marvel and DC Comics prepare to reunite for their upcoming crossover specials headlined by Deadpool and Batman, it has been announced that one of the all-time great DC/Marvel crossover comics is set to return to print.
Originally published by Amalgam Comics, a joint Marvel and DC imprint that merged together popular characters from both universes to create new superheroes, Spider-Boy – a mash-up of Spider-Man and Super-Boy – proved to be one of the standout creations from the collaboration and now his rare first appearance is set to be represented – complete with originals ads and all – in Spider-Boy #1 Facsimile Edition.
As iconic heroes of two worlds collide in the Amalgam Universe, get ready to meet Pete Ross – your friendly neighborhood clone known as Spider-Boy! Join the amazing Arach-Kid mid-fight as he protects Project Cadmus from the deranged D.N.Alien, Bizarnage! But even if he can solve that problem, big trouble lies ahead courtesy of a somehow giant-sized King Lizard! Can Spider-Boy bring his reptilian rogue down to size in time to meet the blind date lined up for him by his ally, Otto Octavius? Face it, tiger – you’re dying to find out!
Spider-Boy #1 Facsimile Edition #1 will go on sale on October 1st 2025.
