Hey, heroes! I'm going to be streaming again on Twitch this weekend! On Saturday I'll be playing the PSP version of Final Fantasy III, and on Sunday it'll be Yakuza Kiwami 2 for the PS4!

[pikachurino_]

This is actually legitimately the only YouTube video about her

[FancifulDancingStar]

Ah, Julia Carpenter has always been my favorite Spider-Woman. I'm so glad that you made a video about her, as your videos are always the best Marvel character retrospectives!

[quentinfogger]

How many of you remember seeing Julia Carpenter Spider Woman in the 90s Iron Man show?

[kylecarter]

So youre telling me that there were actually people working with Julia's mother in the Amazon researching spiders before she died?

[joehauptfleisch]

Julia Carpenter was Spider Woman when i got into comics, so she's always been my favorite! Hoping for a part 2

[HepCatJack]

The ones I know of:
1- Shannon Kane - Spider Queen (Marvel version of Fox Features Syndicate public domain character
2- Cassandra Web - Madam Web
3- Jessica Drew - Spider-Woman
4- Julia Carpenter - Spider-Woman
5- May Day Parker - Spider-Girl (introduced in 1998 but not yet born in current continuity)
6- Charlotte Whitter - Spider-Woman (grand-daughter of madame web)
7- Ashley Barton - Spider-Witch (with a B instead of a W) grand-daughter of Peter Parker
8- Anna-May Parker - Spiderling
6- Anya Corazon - Spider-Girl (technically older than May Day
7- Cindy Moon - Silk

I really didn't know that Julia Carpenter was the first black and white costume before spider man and Venom.

[maxordman]

Julia was also part of the 90s iron man cartoon series. She was the best match for Tony stark in my opinion. No one can change my mind! She is way more amazing and attractive than pepper Potts! If it were up to me Julia would still be Tony’s full time love interest! I’m glad to know that despite not being romantic they had a strong connection and friendship in the comics as well. I’m still hoping though that they could be a couple again in a new live action iron man reboot. Thanks for the video.

Jessica will
Always be my spider woman .. loved when she chilled with the X-men . Great review

[simonbellmont]

Her costume is so iconic, and I believe influenced Spiderman black costume as well as Venom. She deserved more character development then she received

[jaymesEo]

I've been asking for this from Casually Comics for years. She never seems to take any of my suggestions. Thank you for this.

[Mjolnir]

Wait wait wait... Someone was with someone's mother when they were researching spiders in the amazon and nobody died?!

[MalibuSkipper]

I love both Jessica and Julia. One of the rare moments when I liked both the OG and replacement

[HeWhoRemains]

Why does this man not have a million subscribers?! Sir, you are indeed phenomenal. Much appreciate the review .

[christopherulichney]

My personal favorite Spider-Woman. I look forward to eventually seeing the rest of her history someday.

With the Madame Web movie coming out does that mean we will be getting more female spider character videos? I hope you cover Mattie Franklin and Arana. They are the forgotten spider women in my opinion.

But my suggestion for a future video is the Alpha Flight member, SASQUATCH.

As always, MAKE MINE THE MERRY

[kratoscraken]

Glad you did this I've been wondering for years who the black suit spider-woman is, now to be fair, you gotta do the red suit spider-woman👍

[robstein]

2:41 I know him: he was in the Amazon with my mom when she was researching spiders just before she died

[jupiterfalls]

she's a cool character! made her debut in Secret Wars and shortly disappeared. Unrated Spider Woman ❤
