Classic 90s Marvel/DC mash-up Spider-Boy #1 returns to print

July 24, 2025 by Gary Collinson

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.
