About this Collection

This oversized pop-up book from Candlewick Press collects a single, elaborate three-dimensional story featuring Spider-Man, presented in the style of a classic pop-up book. Part of the Marvel True Believers Retro Collection, it offers a nostalgic, interactive reading experience for younger fans with detailed paper engineering and vibrant illustrations. The volume stands alone as a novelty format rather than collecting multiple comic issues, focusing on a simple superhero adventure designed to showcase the pop-up craft.

A 2007 pop-up book edition of The Amazing Spider-Man Pop-Up presents "The Spider-Man Story Part 1..." — a reimagined origin tale featuring Stan Lee’s writing and Steve Ditko’s iconic art, with Ditko also handling inks and Andy Mansfield and Artie Simek sharing lettering duties. The cover, a dynamic collaboration by Steve Ditko and Ross Andru with inks by Ditko and Mike Esposito, captures the moment Spider-Man confronts the burglar who killed Ben Parker, echoing the pivotal realization that "with great power there must also come — great responsibility!"
