About this Collection

This second volume of Marvel's Clone Saga Epic series continues the sprawling 1990s storyline that redefined Spider-Man's world. Collecting issues from the various Spider-Man titles of the era, the book follows the aftermath of the revelation that the Jackal's clone, Ben Reilly, has returned, leading to a tangled web of identity crises, shifting alliances, and deadly confrontations with classic foes like the Jackal, Kaine, and the Hobgoblin. With Peter Parker and Ben Reilly both claiming to be the true Spider-Man, this collection deepens the mystery and sets the stage for one of the most controversial chapters in the web-slinger's history.

In "Back from the Edge Part 1: Outcasts!", the escalating clash between Scarlet Spider, the Grim Hunter, and Kaine reaches its breaking point, with lives hanging in the balance as the trio confronts the consequences of their shared past. Written by Howard Mackie and illustrated by Mike Manley, with colors by Kevin Tinsley and inks by Joe Rubinstein, this pivotal issue delivers a tense, character-driven showdown that reshapes the path of all involved. The cover by Steven Butler captures the intensity of the moment, a striking visual that hints at the cost of redemption.
