''The Spectacular Spider-Man'' is the name of several comic books and one magazine series starring Marvel Comics' Spider-Man. Following the success of Spider-Man's original series, ''The Amazing Spider-Man'', Marvel felt the character could support more than one title. This led the company in 1968 to launch a short-lived magazine, the first to bear the ''Spectacular'' name. In 1972, Marvel more successfully launched a second Spider-Man ongoing series, ''Marvel Team-Up'', in which he was paired with other Marvel heroes. A third monthly ongoing series, ''Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man'', debuted in 1976. ==Magazine== . ''The Spectacular Spider-Man'' was initially a two-issue magazine published by Marvel in 1968, as an experiment in entering the black-and-white comic-magazine market〔 successfully pioneered by Warren Publishing and others. It sold for 35 cents when standard comic books cost 12 cents and annuals and giants 25 cents. It represented the first Spider-Man spin-off publication aside from the original series' summer annuals, begun in 1964. The first issue (cover-dated July 1968) featured a painted, color cover by men's adventure-magazine artist Harry Rosenbaum, in acrylic paint on illustration board, over layouts by ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' artist John Romita Sr.. The 52-page black-and-white Spider-Man story, "Lo, This Monster!", was by writer Stan Lee, penciler Romita Sr. and inker Jim Mooney. A 10-page origin story, "In The Beginning!", was by Lee, penciler Larry Lieber and inker Bill Everett. The feature story was reprinted in color, with some small alterations and bridging material by Gerry Conway, in ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' #116–118 (Jan.-March 1973) as "Suddenly...the Smasher!", "The Deadly Designs of the Disruptor!", and "Countdown to Chaos!" (with additional inking by Tony Mortellaro on the latter two). These versions were themselves reprinted in ''Marvel Tales'' #95–97 (Sept.-Oct. 1978). The second and final issue (Nov. 1968) sported a painted cover and the interior was in color as well. Lee, Romita and Mooney again collaborated on its single story, "The Goblin Lives!", featuring the Green Goblin. A next-issue box at the end promoted the planned contents of the unrealized issue #3, "The Mystery of the TV Terror". A version of the Goblin story, trimmed by 18 pages, was reprinted in ''The Amazing Spider-Man Annual'' #9 (1973), and portions of the "TV Terror" costume were reused for the costume of the Prowler. Both issues of the magazine were reprinted in their entirety (albeit reduced to comic size) in the collection ''Marvel Masterworks: The Amazing Spider-Man'' #7 (ISBN 0-7851-1636-2). The first issue was reprinted again in 2002 as ''The Spectacular Spider Man Facsimile'', exactly as it was originally presented. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Spectacular Spider-Man」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
