The Amazing Spider-Man (1999)

The sky over New York City is lit by a fiery signal, ignored by a man in a Peter Parker apartment. His focus is on the quiet life his wife’s earnings have bought. On the streets below, Daredevil continues his nightly patrol, subduing a surge in petty crime. He only learns of the sky-borne message from the lips of a terrified thug. The absence of one costumed figure is felt in the rising disorder, a void the city’s other vigilantes are left to fill. The air smells of ozone and garbage.
