Yeah yeah yeah! Wow! Yeah yeah yeah! Wow!

Yeah yeah yeah! Wow! Yeah yeah yeah! Wow!

Within the dark alleys of the metropolis

Biru no tanima no kurayami ni

Spiderman!

Spiderman!

His eyes gleam with a brilliant anger

Kirari to hikaru ikari no me

Spiderman!

Spiderman!

Leaving his tranquil life behind,

Yasuragi sutete

Leaving everything he knows behind,

Subete wo sutete

He'll fly through the skies, chasing after evil

Aku wo otte, sora kakeru

Change Leopardon!

Change Leopardon!

Why do you, oh, why do you...

Kimi wa naze, Kimi wa naze

Why do you risk your life continuing to fight?

Tatakai tsuzukeru no ka, inochi wo kakete

He's devoted himself, he'll stand firm

Hitosuji ni hitosuji ni

He is the invincible man, Spiderman!

Muteki no otoko, Spiderman

Spiderman!

Spiderman!

Spiderman... awaken from your slumber.

The Iron Cross Army is up to no good!

The Bizarre World! The Man with a Destined Life

That night, the Tokyo area was hit with blustery winds, some reaching up to km an hour,

but they vanished with the coming dawn as if nothing happened.

Takuji! If you don't hurry up you're gonna be late to school!

What's wrong?

There's a spider!

It's right by the toaster! A spider!

Nothin' there.

Nothing?

Something's up...

I've been seeing spiders everywhere recently!

Takuji!

I just know you're behind this!

Me!?

This is one of your pranks! You know I hate spiders!

No it's not!

Oh, it's you, Hitomi!

Morning!

You're here early.

Early bird gets the worm!

How's he doing?

Takuya? He's still in bed.

What a lazybones.

Wake up! You can't just sleep all day! Up and at 'em!

Come on, throw some clothes on.

You know what they say, you snooze you lose!

Do tell.

There's been an incident.

Did you watch the news earlier?

Oh, duh, of course not, you were too busy sleeping.

A train went off the rails!

What's that have to do with you?

Man, you're slow. As a freelance photographer, this is the perfect opportunity to snag a photo!

Hurry up and take me over there on your bike!

I thought you were a racer! You can go faster, can't you!?

This is why you're hopeless!

Who's hopeless!?

I know you're upset over your dad dying, but I don't get how you can mope around all day!

You need to move on!

The train should be right up ahead.

They've closed off the surrounding area.

What'd they say on the news?

A large gale coming from Tokyo Bay last night blew the train off track.

Several passengers had to be taken to the hospital.

A gale?

I've never seen anything like this.

Though according to the newscasters they're lucky in that it didn't fall into the river.

A gale could do this...?

Is this what Garia was trying to tell me...?

Takuya's dad met his untimely demise at the hands of the Iron Cross Army.

Dr. Yamashiro now sleeps peacefully in this cemetery.

Deep in the Tanza mountains...

I was told an unbelievable story by Garia, a man from Planet Spider.

But I did not die.

I withstood the venomous spiders...

I survived... survived day by day...

...for years.

It happened years ago...

Far away from our Solar System, in the th galaxy of the M nebula...

a peaceful planet similar to Earth existed: Planet Spider.

But one day they were attacked by a force from another galaxy.

It was Professor Monster and the Iron Cross Army. They obliterated Planet Spider.

Garia, who was off-world at the time, returned.

It was then he found the planet's rulers, his family, massacred.

Father!

Monster...

I will k*ll you, I swear it!

Garia began to chase the Iron Cross Army across the universe, longing to have his revenge.

Eventually he finally found his accursed enemy, Professor Monster.

Professor Monster had come to Earth planning to invade it as a place of research for his Machine BEMs.

It was the Sengoku era then.

The Toyotomi and the Tokugawa were in the midst of battle at Sekigahara.

Professor Monster tried to blend into the chaos.

But Garia found him and challenged him!

Garia!

Monster...

I swore to k*ll you!

For my father, my mother, and my siblings...

You won't escape from me!

Don't make me laugh, Garia!

Marveller!

Return to the cosmos!

Our time of vengeance must wait!

Damn you, Garia.

Don't think this is over!

Garia, now a demon of revenge, was buried beneath the earth, but he did not die.

One year on Planet Spider is equivalent to here on Earth.

It's been years since that battle, and Japan has changed drastically in that time.

But for Garia, who survived beneath the ground like a spider in wait...

...the Earth's years of change were only .

He devoted that time to trying to find someone who could carry his will.

And that was when Garia saved me.

Once you've been given the blood of a Spiderian, you'll be able to become Spiderman.

Professor Monster has woken up from his years of rest and is on the attack.

You must destroy Professor Monster and his Iron Cross Army or the Earth is doomed!

Please do not let Earth meet the same fate as Planet Spider!

Use the machine I built, Marveller, to put an end to the Iron Cross Army.

Marveller was wandering through space... but I called him back.

Spiderman! Use the Spider Machine...

...the GP- ...

If you dock it in Marveller you can fight with it!

Spiderian blood now flows through me.

Garia saved my life.

I'll never forget that as long as I live.

Garia has carried this burden for years.

I swear for him, his family, all of those destroyed along with Planet Spider...

...and for my dad's m*rder that I will defeat the Iron Cross Army!

Watch me, Garia!

One of the injured victims in that train incident told me something weird.

Something weird?

Yeah, he says he saw something while the train was still running.

Looked like a ghost, apparently.

Hitomi!

Oh? You also came to visit his grave, Takuya?

Mind telling me more?

Huh? I didn't think you were interested.

This guy was moved to the Emergency Hospital, right?

I guess.

Come with me.

Hey! Hurry up!

Right!

Emergency Hospital

Seems something happened.

And who are you?

We're photogra-

Well you're in the way! Out!

The guy who told you what he saw is now dead.

I wonder why he was k*lled.

What did he tell you exactly?

What he told me...?

Come on, tell me!

He was on the train last night and...

He told the police what he saw...

but he flipped out when nobody believed him.

Don't tell anybody else what you just told me.

He was probably silenced because he saw that weird pastel thing.

What!?

You sorta bought his story.

If whoever's behind it learns that... they'll come after you next.

Go! Get away from here!

-What do you mean!? -Just go!

Spider Net!

Spider Strings!

Takuya!

You alright?

Weaklings!

How dare you come crawling back to me without having taken care of Spiderman!

Damn you, Spiderman...

Garia must've saved him and given him his powers when he fell in the cave.

You better find him...

...or else!

Your bro is messed up!

Is she right, Takuya?

Why didn't you fight them off?

I can't stand violence.

But they were going to k*ll Hitomi!

Feh!

Hey, that guy who saved you?

The Spider Guy?

Yeah... what type of human could do all that?

I don't know.

His name is Spiderman.

Whatever! All I know is next time I see him I'm getting an exclusive!

Garia...

The Iron Cross Army will strike again, don't you think?

Where do you think they'll strike next?

Or when?

Garia, you alright?

Garia?

Garia! What's wrong!?

Takuya! Take these years of regret...

Free me from it!

Garia's fate was to carry that regret for years,

as he struggled to live until the very end, even as a spider.

Now that he has passed the burden to Yamashiro Takuya, he can finally rest.

Goodbye, Garia.

I'll destroy them.

I won't let your death be in vain.

Spiderman hit the streets!

Spiderman has multiple superhuman abilities.

One of them allows him to pick up on things that go unnoticed by the average person.

Or Powers of Perception, to be precise.

Spiderman cannot allow the Iron Cross Army to go unpunished if the universe is to be at peace.

His Spidey-Sense has snared something!

Finally, he's picked up the trail of the Iron Cross Army!

This freight train carries fuel for the New Tokyo International Airport in Narita.

The highly efficient jet fuel is delivered daily.

Oh no!

Spider Strings!

Who the heck are you!?

I am a Machine BEM, Twin-Headed Specter!

You won't get away!

Spider Strings!

Marveller!

Missiles, fire!

Marveller! Change Leopardon!

Spider Strings!

Arc Turn!

Leopardon! Sword Vigor!

Spiderman must fight on!

It is his destiny to carry Garia's regret and avenge his father!

Don't give in, Spiderman!

To be continued...

Yami fukaku hibiku

The sound of hell's footsteps

Jigoku no ashi oto

Echo in the darkness

Boyou no shita nemuru chichi yo

Dad sleeps below his gravestone

Mune ni himeta hijou no sadame

I lock away my cruel fate within my chest

Saraba tomo yo, chikai no tomo yo

Farewell, my friends, my dear friends

Ore wa tada hitori, ore wa tada hitori

I am all alone, oh, I am all alone

Kouya wo hashiru

Running across the wasteland

A mysterious figure appears on the side of a building and disappears through the window.

All that's left behind is an empty safe and a message written in red...

saying "Spiderman was here!"

Is this really the work of Spiderman?

Next time: Phantom Thief vs Spiderman!

Look forward to it!
