From the pages of "Spider-Man: Identity Crisis" emerges a new generation of heroes for the Marvel Universe! The thrill-seeking Ricochet, the high-tech Hornet, the majestic Prodigy and the mysterious Dusk rise again to carve out their own brand of justice into the Big Apple! Peter Parker once wore these guises when Spider-Man was forced to hide from the public eye. Clearing his name, he's returned to the classic red and blue--and the abandoned identities have since fallen into unseasoned hands! Now four reluctant teens are recruited to assume these roles; trained by a mysterious benefactor from the Golden Age of heroes. But when one of them takes a fatal fall, the lives of these rookies are propelled on a rollercoaster ride of adventure, deception and redemption! This issue features four separate 48-page variant issues. Each issue features a full 16 pages of story interwoven throughout the adventure.

Each issue also has a different cover spotlighting the individual heroes. All covers are drawn by ChrisCross and Rob Stull. #1C - PRODIGY EDITION - Ritchie Gilmore was known by everyone as the "big man on campus," so becoming Prodigy is the feather in his cap.
