“Duell mit dem Dämon”

"Duell mit dem Dämon" in Die Spinne #18 (1974) delivers a classic clash of wills when the Circus of Crime sets a trap using hypnotic ads promising Spider-Man’s appearance. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Steve Ditko—with Ditko also handling inks and Stan Goldberg providing colors—the story unfolds as Spider-Man arrives, only to fall under the Ringmaster’s spell, while Daredevil, immune to the hat’s power, stands ready to intervene. The cover, penciled and inked by Steve Ditko, captures the eerie tension of the big top’s dark spectacle.
