'''Spider-Woman''' is the [[code name]] of several [[fiction]]al [[Character (arts)|characters]] in [[comic books]] published by [[Marvel Comics]]. The first major version is [[Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew)|Jessica Drew]] (and later impersonated by [[Veranke]]), the second major version is [[Julia Carpenter]], and the third major version is [[Mattie Franklin]]. Several alternate reality incarnations of the character have additionally received attention, including the [[Spider-Woman (Ultimate Marvel character)|Ultimate Spider-Woman]], [[Spider-Bitch (Ashley Barton)|Ashley Barton]], and [[Spider-Woman (Gwen Stacy)|Gwen Stacy]].

==Publication history==
[[Marvel Comics]]' then-publisher [[Stan Lee]] said in 1978, shortly after Spider-Woman's debut in ''[[Marvel Spotlight]]'' #32 (Feb. 1977) and the start of the character's 50-issue self-titled series ([[cover-date]]d April 1978 – June 1983), the character originated because,

{{Blockquote|I suddenly realized that some other company may quickly put out a book like that and claim they have the right to use the name, and I thought we'd better do it real fast to copyright the name. So we just batted one quickly, and that's exactly what happened. I wanted to protect the name, because it's the type of thing [where] someone else might say, "Hey, why don't we put out a Spider-Woman; they can't stop us." ... You know, years ago we brought out [[Wonder Man]], and <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[DC Comics]]<nowiki>]</nowiki> sued us because they had [[Wonder Woman]], and ... I said okay, I'll discontinue Wonder Man. And all of a sudden they've got [[Power Girl]] [after Marvel had introduced [[Luke Cage|Power Man]]<nowiki>]</nowiki>. Oh, boy. How unfair.<ref>"Hello, Culture Lovers: Stan the Map Raps with Marvel Maniacs at [[James Madison University]]", ''[[The Comics Journal]]'' #42, October 1978, p. 55</ref>}}

Following that initial ''Spider-Woman'' series, more followed. Volume two was a [[miniseries]] published from November 1993 through February 1994; volume three was published from July 1999 through December 2000; and [[Spider-Woman: Agent of S.W.O.R.D.|volume four]], featuring Jessica Drew, the original Spider-Woman, was published from November 2009 through May 2010.

[[Spider-Woman: Spider-Verse|Volume Five]] ran from November 2014 through the fall of 2015, featuring Jessica Drew as Spider-Woman. In the March 2015 issue of ''[[The Amazing Spider-Man]]'' Vol. 3 #13, Jessica boasts "I have never needed rescuing. Ever. See my wiki entry."<ref>''The Amazing Spider-Man'' Vol. 3 #13 p. 18. Marvel Comics.</ref> In November 2015, ''Spider-Woman'' Vol. 6 launched as part of Marvel's [[All-New, All-Different Marvel|All-New, All-Different]] event with the same creative team as [[Spider-Woman: Shifting Gears|Volume Five: ''Shifting Gears'']]. This volume saw her wearing the same costume as in Volume Five, but now she was pregnant and once again working as a private investigator. In October 2020, ''Spider-Woman'' #5, the fifth issue of Volume Seven, being written by Karla Pacheco, marked the 100th issue of the title and Marvel celebrated the occasion with a special giant-sized issue.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Spider-Woman Hits a New Milestone This October |url=https://www.marvel.com/articles/comics/spider-woman-hits-a-new-milestone-this-october |publisher=Marvel Entertainment |access-date=2021-05-24 |language=en}}</ref>

In 1995, Peter lets [[Ben Reilly]] take over his life as Spider-Man and CEO of Parker Industries so he could return to his family. In the mid-2000s, Claire convinces Peter to return to New York and become Spider-Man once more shortly after [[Morlun]] kills Ben Reilly so he could stop [[Tony Stark]] from taking over Parker Industries and to lure Morlun away from his family. Despite his efforts, Morlun attacks the twins and Mary Jane in Oregon as Peter gets involved in [[Civil War (comics)|the superhero Civil War]]. When Benjy discovers that Morlun is vulnerable when he is feeding off someone, he uses himself as bait to allow Claire the chance to impale him on a splintered log of wood.

On clearing up the misunderstanding, Octavia nonetheless makes the offer again, if either of them would be open to it, and excitedly noting that she learned three different types of martial arts for a previous role, Erin joins the Web Warriors and ventures into the multiverse with them, leaving her shocked crew behind, as Felix asks if they were still filming.<ref>''[[Web Warriors]]'' #10. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Erin returns in the video game ''[[Spider-Man Unlimited (video game)|Spider-Man Unlimited]]'', now wielding a specialized set of web-shooters made for those lacking spider-strength as a "real" Spider-Woman. After the Spider-Queen escapes from Spider-Force custody, the game's protagonist Spider-Man realizes that since Erin isn't a Spider-Totem, the Queen cannot control her, and sends her on a mission to [[Horizon Labs]] to collect a device to suppress the Queen's control over other spiders and Spider-People. Listed as "'''Spider-Gwen (Erin Hasko)'''"; in her character description, Erin is revealed to have been acting since she was three years old, with the film she was filming on her recruitment having been titled ''Spider-Woman: Goblin's Revenge''.
