Improving Silk


Yeah I know I recommend the comic series, but there can always be improvements the obvious being the art. The art should make Silk look cute or seductive since her hero name Silk implies this. This should also go with her personality but we'll get to that later.

Origin, Powers, and Goal
After being bitten by a similar spider that bit Peter Parker, Cindy Moon got powers similar to him. She obtain a weaker but competent spider sense, increased strength and endurance, being able to spin clothes, spin from webs, and fingers are like claws. Cindy is put in a bunker like shelter by her parents like the comics, but when Spider-man goes to rescue her, she's already escaped by constantly digging through the wall every day Shawshanke Redemption style. He catches up with her and tells her that she's no longer captive here and that's she's free to live her life. She decides to live like a superhero after she gets trained by Spider-man and Spider-woman.
Starting her new life, she fights crime while working for J Jonah Jameson and looking for information on her family. Along the way she makes befriends a couple who remind her what familial love and normal life feels like (they act as a grounding and relaxation part of her story). The dragon person who she first faces in vol 0 becomes a friend as well and shows that not all villains are completely evil and are worth a second chance. Cindy's activities attract the attention of Shield and Black Cat, which allow her to use both sides to her advantage in finding her family. She has to balance being a hero and villain at the same time while staying morally good. Her personality would be fun loving with a side of seduction as the name Silk implies and gives her character a well rounded feel to it.

This, in my opinion, is a better Silk story than the one we already have though I still recommend reading the one that's out right now.
