Spider-Man: The Death Of Jean DeWolff (Audio Version)

This week on Bros, Foes, and Heroes, we take a sharp turn into one of the darkest Spider-Man stories ever told: The Death of Jean DeWolff. In honor of the late, great Peter David — the writer behind this brutal and emotional arc — we dig into the moment where everything breaks: Spider-Man, Daredevil, the system… and the reader’s expectations. This isn’t just a whodunit. It’s a street-level thriller with religious trauma, guilt, and a masked killer known as the Sin-Eater. We break down how this story flipped Spidey’s usual tone on its head, gave Daredevil some of his best moments, and pushed Peter Parker to his absolute edge.
