Where Does Spider-Man’s Black Suit Make Its First Appearance?

In the comics, Spider-Man’s black suit — otherwise known as the symbiote suit — first debuted in Secret Wars, a Marvel Comics crossover that was released between 1984 and 1985. In the series, several Marvel heroes are teleported against their will to a place called “Battleworld,” where they are forced to fight against an army of villains in exchange for a prize. When Spider-Man’s suit is damaged, he finds the infamous symbiote while on Battleworld. It eventually forms on him as a new suit.
