About this Collection

This 1980 Marvel UK annual collects a selection of Spider-Man stories from the era, featuring the wall-crawler facing off against classic foes like Doctor Octopus, the Green Goblin, and Mysterio. As a British annual, it reprints material from US comics alongside original content, offering a mix of action and adventure for young readers.

In "Where Were You When the Lights Went Out?", Spider-Man races to save Hector Ayala from Lightmaster’s clutches, only to see the truth about Hector’s identity exposed to the world. Written by Bill Mantlo and brought to life with dynamic art by Sal Buscema and Mike Esposito, this 1980 Marvel UK Annual captures a pivotal moment in the web-slinger’s world, with Don Warfield’s colors and Irving Watanabe’s lettering adding depth to the action.
