Silk

Marvel’s Silk (2015–2017) is a four-issue series that follows Cindy Moon, the Korean-American superhero who was bitten by the same radioactive spider as Peter Parker, as she steps out of a decade of isolation to forge her own heroic path. Written primarily by Robbie Thompson with art by Stacey Lee and Helen Chen, the series explores Cindy’s struggle to reconnect with her family and the world while mastering her unique web-slinging abilities. It matters as a focused, character-driven launch that expanded Marvel’s Spider-verse with a fresh, grounded perspective.
