However, Marvel could not remove the black suit since Secret Wars #8- which revealed the suit's origin- had yet to be released. Before its revelation, fans rejected the idea and wrote to Marvel asking them not to change the suit. The black costume first debuted in ASM #252 with the tagline 'The rumors are true', affirming suspicions that Spider-Man would be getting a new costume. The suit would later be revealed to be a symbiotic lifeform. The machine produces a black sphere, which then engulfs Peter in black goo, eventually forming his suit while augmenting his powers and abilities.

Composed of the same unstable molecules found in the Fantastic Four's costumes, this new suit would be more durable and stealth-like than the handmade red and blue costume.
