Marvel Origins #24
In "Das Ende von Spider-Man!", the Circus of Crime is out of prison and regrouping in a hotel room, but Spider-Man isn’t buying their act. With a stealthy spin on his usual tactics, he plants a hidden tracker in the Ringmaster’s hat—just in case. When the web-slinger leaves, the Ringmaster’s crew has had enough of old ways, splitting off to form a new group with a bold new plan: a high-stakes art heist. Written by Stan Lee and Michael Strittmatter, with iconic art by Steve Ditko and colors by Stan Goldberg, this 2024 issue delivers a pivotal moment in Spider-Man’s legacy, all rendered in the classic style of the original creative team. The cover, also by Steve Ditko, captures the tension with sharp, unmistakable detail.
In "Das Ende von Spider-Man!", Peter Parker is on the run from Sandman, his reputation shattered as the city sees him only as a coward. With his life in ruins and the weight of his dual identity crushing him, Peter faces a desperate choice: abandon the suit and try to reclaim a normal life, even if it means leaving the web-slinger behind.
In "Spidey Schlägt Zurück!", Spider-Man races to rescue the Human Torch after learning the Inhuman is captured by Sandman and the Enforcers. With the clock ticking, Spider-Man must outthink his foes and use every trick in his arsenal to free his ally—before it’s too late.
In "Jetzt kommt der Skorpion! Oder: Spidey gegen Skorpi!", J. Jonah Jameson's desperate bid to capture Spider-Man unleashes Mac Gargan as the Skorpion, a twisted force amplified by Dr. Stillwell's dangerous formula. As the villain's rage spirals out of control, Spider-Man must confront a foe more monstrous than ever before—before the city pays the price.
After his release from prison, the Beetle sets his sights on revenge against the Fackel. Now caught between two heroes, he must face off against both the Fackel and Spider-Man in a fight that could change everything.
In "Der Clown und sein Zirkus des Grauens!", a once-incarcerated circus of criminals reunites in a hotel room after their release, only to find their old ways are no longer welcome—even to each other. When Spider-Man drops by, his suspicions remain, and he plants a hidden tracker in the Ringmaster’s hat, setting off a chain of choices that fractures the troupe. Now, with the Ringmaster left behind, the former performers split off to forge a new path—one that leads them toward a daring art heist, leaving the past and its leader behind.
