In 2007, New York science fiction publisher Baen Books published a trade paperback featuring three Spider novel reprints (#16, 74 and 85). In 2008, they released a second companion trade paperback featuring 2 more Spider reprints (#26 and 75) as well as a third bonus story about another pulp hero called "The Octopus". In 2009, Baen re-issued both volumes as mass market paperbacks. The Baen editions sported brand new Spider cover paintings by noted graphic designer and comics artist Jim Steranko. (In 1970, for Pyramid Books and HBJ/Jove Books, Steranko had illustrated 27 (of 28 covers) for their mass market novel re-issues of rival pulp hero "The Shadow" (with the exception of the cover for "Mobsmen On The Spot" which re-used a George Rozen original Shadow pulp magazine cover). Steranko also illustrated additional new covers for five of "The Shadow" novels' second printings.)
