Journalists, Civilians and the Extended Circle
A deep dive into the Daily Bugle, the streets of New York and the everyday life of the masked hero.
The Daily Bugle

Morlun
A relentless hunter and the very embodiment of death for the Spider-Men. A symbol of the eternal cycle of the hunt and of sacrifice in spider mythology.

Verna
A silent, methodical predator, Verna is the hunt in its purest form. Where other Inheritors seek domination or slaughter, she tracks the Spider-Totems with icy precision. Every prey is studied, isolated, then eliminated without excess — as if the Web of Destiny were nothing to her but a perfectly mapped hunting ground.
Daemos
The brute force among the Inheritors, Daemos does not hunt: he executes. Stripped of strategy or subtlety, he turns every confrontation into a surge of uncontrolled violence. His role is not to understand the Web of Destiny, but to make it tremble under the weight of the carnage he leaves behind him.
Jennix
The scientific brain of the Inheritors. Jennix is the ice-cold architect who orchestrates the hunt for the Spider-Totems and tirelessly resurrects his family of predators. Where the others hunt on instinct, he plans the slaughter with the rigour of a scholar.

Once headed by Dr Ashley Kafka, the institute embodies the fine line between care and control, where psychiatry rubs shoulders with sheer madness.
Hydra
A paramilitary and scientific organisation obsessed with genetic control and world domination. Hydra has infiltrated even the projects connected to Peter Parker.

The Sanctum Sanctorum
An iconic mystical place in the Marvel universe, the Sanctum Sanctorum is not only Doctor Strange’s home: it is also a dimensional crossroads where Spider-Man has lived through some of his most unlikely and memorable moments. Between magic, unstable portals and encounters with the Masters of the Mystic Arts, every visit the web-slinger pays to this sacred place becomes an event as baffling as it is unforgettable.
The Spider-Mobile
A true mechanical oddity in the world of Spider-Man, the Spider-Mobile is a creation as iconic as it is offbeat. Originally designed by Peter Parker and Johnny Storm (the Human Torch), this car in Spider-Man’s colours symbolises the bold, pop era of 1970s comics.
