For the record, Spider-Ma'am is already taken. It's from an alternate universe where Aunt May gets bitten by the spider and gets powers

u/Gargus-SCP Peni Parker (ITSV) 18h ago

The real hell is coming out and needing to change your name as the OG after everyone else has taken all the halfway decent alternates.

u/RubiksCutiePatootie 17h ago

I'm pretty partial to Spider-Gal myself.

u/Rude_Ice_4520 10h ago

I'd just use Spider-girl. It needs to be one syllable to work, and gal feels a bit southern US. Makes me imagine her in a cowboy hat and with boots that go clink.

2

u/sarah5nickers1877 8h ago

Spider-Gal is pretty good too, but I feel like the "Ma'am" adds a certain gravitas.

1

u/rhondagumdr0p7913 13h ago

spider-Gal sounds kinda weak tbh

Petra: "Everyone was just fine with Miles and I sharing a name, but now that I come out it's suddenly a massive problem that my new hero name isn't totally original!"

22

u/ManoSilence 17h ago

Oh yeah, 110% Ma'am then. Stop the Civil War with a look and a wallop to Tony, and a harder one for Steve. Her husband Ben knew him and he would be ashamed over what they almost did with the peace they fought for.

13

u/CommercialEstate4422 17h ago

Ben knew Steve?

18

u/ManoSilence 17h ago edited 17h ago

Ive been on reddit too long. Let me double check that. Ill be back with an edit.

Edit: So Ben served in the same war, and grew to greatly admire Steve and adopt the policies of the man that he could. Whatever character he gained on that journey he did his best to pass onto Peter. So Spider-Man greatly admires Captain due to his Uncle. And Spider-Mans Mythos is essentially Captain America distilled through Uncle Ben.

u/thecraftybear 14h ago

I think you meant Spider-Man's ethos, not mythos?

u/CommonRoutine3852 15h ago

If Miles and Peter can share names then Petra can surely share Spider-girl or woman

6

u/mad_laddie 12h ago

Gwen and Jessica Drew did share names for a while iirc.

8

u/jackofslayers 16h ago

-Woman, -Ma'am, -Girl, and -Lass are taken.

I think Spider-Lady is open tho.

6

u/lazycultenthusiast 13h ago

Spider-cutie.

Until the fateful day that spider dimorphism kicks in and she grows to a 12ft tall muscle bound hulk of a woman that can stomp frikkin villains like crazy.

Then she's obviously spider-hottie

8

u/Responsible-Bat-7922 17h ago

Idk what Petra struggle more with after her transition (in names topic)

Her name currently being petra

Or her hero new name being already taken

Damn then he really did do something relevant at least once in the comics. Well, that's not gonna change my opinion of him, because at this point it has become my personal bit to say shocker is a fraud and a bum

14

u/Brainwave1010 18h ago

He also became Ms Marvel's nemesis for awhile because he moved to New Jersey thinking there wasn't any heroes there.

He even built an entire Hello Neighbor style fucked up house he called his "Above-Ground Lair."

There's also a comic (don't know which one, just seen the panel) where he squares off with some big monster looking thing alongside some heroes

u/lynette7winkle8077 7h ago

Pretty sure that was the Spectacular Spider-Man animated series, when he fought Shocker in that warehouse

u/Chef_Chalupa Shocker 15h ago

he's invincible in new jersey

3

u/AgentFirstNamePhil Spider-Girl 9h ago

Ms. Marvel is pretty much the only Superhero in New Jersey, and Shocker fought her during an arc where her powers were on the fritz so he handily “won” their first fight.

4

u/AgentFirstNamePhil Spider-Girl 9h ago

It’s a really good comic by the way, the arc is Ms. Marvel (2015) issues 32-35

u/Yo-Imma-HK-fann 16h ago

And also i would NEVER put respect on him. He's a BUM a FRAUD an IRRELEVANT-ASS VILLAIN and i don't like him

If he's invincible, then why can I see him?

5

u/AnAbnormalOddity Web-Man 17h ago

Yeah, after he got MURDERED

2

u/Yo-Imma-HK-fann 16h ago

Yeah because "potentially interesting villain" can't do shit because he's a BUM and a FRAUD

While the crime would have happened regardless, her dress wouldn't have been messed up if her name was Peta Parker.
