Weaknesses

Marvel's Spider-Woman, or Jessica Drew, has a few notable weaknesses. Firstly, her powers are derived from a serum that was injected into her as a child, which means she is vulnerable to a specific type of radiation that can disrupt her powers. Additionally, her pheromone manipulation abilities have limits and may not work on all beings, such as those with highly developed mental resistance or other enhanced senses. Finally, like any human, she can be physically harmed or injured, and her powers won't necessarily protect her from all forms of danger.

Bio/Short Story

Spider-Woman is the superhero identity of several fictional characters appearing in Marvel Comics. The first Spider-Woman, Jessica Drew, was created by writer Archie Goodwin and artist Marie Severin, and first appeared in Marvel Spotlight #32 in February 1977.

Jessica Drew was genetically modified with spider DNA by her father, who hoped to save her from a deadly illness. As a result, she possesses superhuman strength, agility, and the ability to cling to walls. She also has a venom blast that can stun or paralyze opponents, and the ability to emit pheromones that can attract or repel others.

Jessica has been a member of various superhero teams, including the Avengers, S.H.I.E.L.D., and the Spider-Women. She has also had a solo career as a private investigator and has been involved in various conflicts and storylines within the Marvel Universe.

Other characters have taken on the mantle of Spider-Woman, including Julia Carpenter, who has similar powers to Jessica but gained them through exposure to radiation, and Gwen Stacy from an alternate universe, who gained spider powers after being bitten by a radioactive spider.

Spider-Woman is known for her dynamic personality, wit, and strength as a character. She has been an important part of Marvel Comics' superhero lineup and has inspired several spin-off series and media adaptations.
