Spidey #37
In "D'où vient Dominus ?", a 1983 French edition of Spidey #37, writer Don Glut and Roy Thomas explore a haunting "what if" through a series of alternate realities where Peter Parker never became Spider-Man. Each path—Flash Thompson as Captain Spider, Betty Brant as Spider-Girl, John Jameson as Spider Jameson—leads to tragedy, yet Peter still rises as the web-slinger in the end. Rick Hoberg’s dynamic art, with inks by Sam Grainger and colors by George Roussos, brings these divergent fates to life, while Jean-Yves Mitton’s cover captures the eerie weight of the moment.
What if Peter Parker hadn’t been the one bitten by the radioactive spider? In this alternate take from Spidey #37, we see three different heroes—Flash Thompson as Captain Spider, Betty Brant as Spider-Girl, and John Jameson as Spider Jameson—each taking up the mantle, only to meet their fates in tragic ways. Yet through it all, Peter Parker still finds his way to becoming Spider-Man, his destiny unfolding as it was always meant to.
