Stinger

Stinger is a next-generation hero of Marvel's MC2 universe, active alongside Spider-Girl and other young successors to the Avengers. She is a member of the Avengers Next, operating in a future where the children of classic Marvel heroes carry on their legacies.

Debuting in the pages of Spider-Woman #3 in 1999, Stinger is a Marvel character who stepped into the spotlight right at the cusp of the modern era and has quietly built a legacy across more than two decades of comics. With appearances spanning Spider-Girl, Avengers Next, and Avengers, this character moves in genuinely exciting company — sharing adventures with the likes of Spider-Girl, May Parker, Cassandra Lang, Mainframe, and Zane Yama, a roster that signals a place at the heart of Marvel's next-generation storytelling. Creator Chris Giarrusso brought Stinger to life, and with at least one key collector-significant issue to their name and a publishing history stretching toward 2026, this is a character whose modest appearance count belies a meaningful footprint in Marvel's legacy tapestry. If you love the corner of the Marvel Universe where classic heroism meets the next generation, Stinger is absolutely worth tracking down.
