“Identity Crisis” explains why Spider-Man had four different identities

Spider Man Comic Identity Crisis Prodigy

Identity crisis is another story arc of the Spider-Man comics which explains the impending danger Spidey had.

Norman Osborn and the Trapster plotted to frame Spider-Man after the latter killed Joey Z in conflict. This prompted Osborn to place a five-million-dollar bounty on Spider Man’s head showing him as a criminal.

Desperate to prove his innocence for not murdering Joey Z, Spider-Man took to adopt four different identities.

Spider-Man, as we know, is a character poised on saving his neighborhood. Nothing could daunt our neighborhood Spider-Man even in the wake of dangerous villains.

But there are testing times where he has to look out for himself. Which is why he dons four different identities – Hornet, Prodigy, Dusk, and Ricochet.

Hornet is an identity that kindles Peter Parker’s interest in science and gadget tech. Hornet’s superpower comes with a load of tech within the suit that makes it advantageous for Spider-Man. However, Spider-Man blew his cover while fighting the Vulture over a conflict. 

Prodigy is a superhuman character that Spider-Man utilizes to mask his cover. Prodigy was involved in collecting fake evidence that a fake Spider-Man attacked Osborn. 

Dusk is the mastermind and secretive identity that Spider-Man adopts. Dusk befriended Trapster and gained his trust to confess more of Trapster’s wrongdoings. This, as a result, led to Trapster confessing that he killed Joey Z and not Spider-Man.

Ricochet bears close similarities to Spider-Man which is the last identity Spider-Man wears. Ricochet’s identity was busy uncovering intel about the new foe – The Black Tarantula.

Through all these efforts donning multiple identities, Spider-Man was able to prove his innocence. 

He came out clean to lead a normal life he yearned for with Aunt May and Mary Jane after the chaos. To sum it up, Spider-Man, instead of ignoring the problem, took matters to solve for himself and eventually won.
