Build Comments: I never read any of the MC2 stuff so my first real introduction to May “Mayday”
Parker was in Spider -erse. In addition to the well-known Parker Luck, for a lot of the expys they
should have the Parker Pluck, which May has in spades. You can pretty much guarantee that she’ll
get thrown into Marvel Multiverse events for a good while until her brother takes over the mantle for
her dimension since his potential played a significant role in the crossover event.

Secret Origins/The Story so Far: May "Mayday" Parker is the daughter of Peter and Mary Jane Parker
of Earth-504. Peter and Mary Jane named their daughter after his Aunt May. They were reunited with
their baby girl by Kaine, who found the child living with Alison Mongraine (Sister of Mary Jane
Parker), the con artist who had kidnapped the baby on instruction from the Green Goblin. After they
were reunited, Peter lost a leg during the horrific final conflict with the Green Goblin. After the battle
Peter was offered a bionic replacement from Mister Fantastic but, considering it a wake-up call,
decided to retire and focus on being a husband and father. For years, they chose to keep their past
from May and hoped that she wouldn't develop powers of her own.

Despite her parents' hopes, May began developing versions of her father's spider-powers when she
was 15. At the same time, Normie Osborn, grandson of the original Green Goblin, set out to restore
the family name. May donned Ben Reilly's Spider-Man costume to stop him and soon took to crime-
fighting, at first hindered, then helped, by her worried Real Parents.

As part of the Great Hunt initiated by Morlun, his brother Daemos located May's family and Wes and
immediately assaulted them, managing to badly wound May and damage Peter Parker's cybernetic
leg. Peter, in an effort to save his daughter, collided with Daemos, knocking him clear. May managed
to grab her brother, Benjy, and could only watch on in horror as her family members were cut down
in front of her. Just then, two other Spider-Men opened a portal from another universe and
beckoned May to join them. A tearful May then vowed vengeance on Daemos for the murder of her
loved ones as she vanished. She later accompanies Spider-UK, Spider-Ham, and Old Man Spider-Man
to recruit the Peter Parker and other Spider Totems of Earth-T1, revealing herself to him to convince
him of the gravity of their situation.

Later, Benjy was revealed to be the Scion and was kidnapped by the Inheritors, T1 Peter promises
May they'll get him back, but she angrily declares her father to be the true Spider-Man compared to
the rest of them. When Uncle Ben tries to have a heart-to-heart with her, calling her out on the
egotism of claiming her father is the only true Spider-Man and acting like she's the only one who lost
loved ones, May attacks and berates him. Their fight is interrupted when a wall she cracked in a fit of
rage crumbles and unleashes a horde of mutant spiders. The two set aside their disagreement and
work together to contain the spiders, but May stubbornly refuses to let go of her desire for revenge
against Daemos, stating that she hopes that somewhere an alternate version of herself exists who
never had to suffer the loss of her loved ones. However, after witnessing the death of the Inheritors'
Master Weaver, May realizes the cost of revenge and refuses to kill them, stating that she will seek
justice rather than vengeance, with Spider-Ham commenting that, if her father was anything like him,
he would be proud of his daughter. With the Inheritors defeated, May returned to her world with
Uncle Ben, learning that her mother and Wes had survived the Inheritors' attack. As Ben chose to
remain and be the grandfather he never had the chance to be, May decided to take on her father's
costume and rename herself Spider-Woman.

Characterization: May shares traits of both of her parents. Like her mother, she is a beautiful,
charismatic, and a popular student in her high school, and she is intelligent and talented just like her
father. She also inherited his love for in-fight bantering and his intolerance for injustice. Even without
her spider powers, she is a very good athlete and excelled in her girls' baseball team until she quit,
her resignation coming after the manifestation of her powers. On the one hand, May seems to have
inherited the "Parker luck" in which her dual identity wreaks havoc in her private life. On the other
hand, her superhero career, unlike her father's, begins with her successfully protecting her family.
From the early part of her career onward, Spider-Girl has developed a reputation for avoiding
unnecessary battles with anyone and reforming her former adversaries, like Normie Osborn and
Raptor. Spider-Girl quickly establishes herself in the superhero community and gets along with other
superheroes easily, gaining reserve status in the Avengers and allies in the New Warriors and
Fantastic Five.
