Scarlet Spider is the title of three comic book series published by Marvel Comics about two clones of Spider-Man while they functioned as the then-current version of the Scarlet Spider. The first volume, about Ben Reilly, lasted only two issues as a brief temporary replacement of the Spider-Man series and was published in 1995. The second volume, about Kaine Parker, started publishing in January 2012 and ended in December 2013 with issue 25 after a total of 26 issues, because there was a special Marvel Point One issue published between issues 12 and 13. The third volume, again about Reilly, started publishing in April 2017 and ended in October 2018 with issue 25.
