Notes & Trivia[]

Spidey vs

Spidey vs. Doc Doom!

  • The character of Spider-Man was created by writer Stan Lee and artist Steve Ditko. He first appeared in Amazing Fantasy #15 in August, 1962 in a story titled "Spider-Man!" The character has since gone on to become one of the most well-known and enduring super-heroes of all time, having appeared in numerous comic book titles, as well as feature films, animated projects and video games.
  • This is the first time that Spider-Man uses impact webbing. This becomes a standard tactic of Pete's successor (and clone), Ben Reilly, when he becomes the Scarlet Spider many years from now.
  • Doctor Doom actually fights Spider-Man physically in this issue. This is a rarity and an uncharacteristic trait of Doctor Doom, who generally relies upon his armor's weaponry during physical combat rather than throwing punches.
