Marvel Comics is bringing back Itsy Bitsy, the unsettling villain with a regenerative healing factor inherited from Deadpool. The character will return in The Amazing Spider-Man #1004, according to Screen Rant.
The follow-up issue, The Amazing Spider-Man #1005, will feature a new costume for Itsy Bitsy. That issue is scheduled for release on December 9, 2026.
