I’ve been seeing a lot of Spidersonas recently thanks to “Into the Spider-verse”. It’s a great movie, my only complaint is they didn’t do much with the alternate universe characters. Aside from Gwen and of course Peter Parker...but so much emphasis was put on Spider-Ham by the fans, so I was a bit disappointed. Aside from that, really fun movie. I loved Miles and his interaction with Peter was really fun. Plus the art style! You don’t see it on the trailers that well, but I love the little detail of everything having comic book dots inside the lines. Like it’s a moving comic book, which is the feel. (Oh And let’s not forget the Stan Lee cameo they threw in like any Marvel movie should have. Well, had.)

Anyway, Spidersonas. I love all the ones I’ve seen and I had been thinking of doing my own. It’s not at all known, but I actually have a Marvel version of my sona already. This is the “if she was bitten by a radioactive spider” version.

About Dragon Spider:

The name was going to be Black Spider, since her normal hero name is Black Dragon, but that would just sound either offensive or confusing. Plus I think a Black Spider character already exists in canon...and I mean literally the name of this character is Black Spider. Not called that for the suit or skin color.

So Dragon Spider was the chosen name. It throws people off, and unless you see why she’s called that, you don’t know what it means. Because it’s exactly what it means. She’s a dragon...with Spidey Powers. Yep.

In her normal Marvel counterpart story, Meg was a normal girl that gets abducted by generic evil scientists like several Marvel characters...and they attempt to make her into a weapon. Again, not uncommon in that universe. I have this as one of her backstories in my normal headworld, but in Marvel the difference is her bones are mutated with the form change. Infused with Vibranium. This isn’t impossible, since true dragons are naturally born with metal bones of some kind. Vibranium may or may not have been one but they would be extinct by now.

Arkelm, a gold bone dragon, rescues her before she’s been there for too long and before the experiment is even proven a success. She later discovers it was, and is trained by Arkelm in the ways of the dragons. Dragons in that world being treasure hunters. The reason they take and horde artifacts and treasures isn’t because of greed, but to protect the world from those items. Kind of like Warehouse 13 but with dragons.

Eventually Meg begins to disagree with their way of only going after treasures, never actually helping the people hurt by them or by others using them. So she decides to do it herself. Yes, I know Doctor Strange and his story cover the ethereal and magical side of that universe, but who says they have to be the only ones? We have Fantastic Four, X-Men, and Avengers dealing with aliens and mutants and evil people in the normal plane after all. So, Black Dragon began life as a super hero.

Enough on the general story of her normal Marvel self though, this is on Dragon Spider. The suit is the same as her normal counterpart’s, but I added webbing to the gloves and an insignia on the chest like all Spider-people. Hers is her dragon form’s head with spider legs surrounding it. This doesn’t mean she has those legs in her dragon form. It’s just to help the Spider theme.

As for the arms, I was going to have her wear open-fingered gloves because I love those, and have exposed shoulders. Then I thought ‘nah...I want to stick to the point of Spider-Man’s philosophy: “Anyone can wear the mask”. This is shown especially well by how his whole body is covered. You don’t even see his skin tone. Not that it should be drawn that much attention to...but that is a good way of showing anyone can be the hero. Adding to the ambiguity of his design as Spider-Man.

She also has a hood...I know a lot of Spidersonas also have one (which is awesome), and of course Gwen does too, but so what? I wear hoodies all the time, so I incorporated that into the design. Dragon Spider and Black Dragon both have it. She also wears boots because I don’t like the idea of not having protective shoes. Even with a healing factor.

Her web is also black. If Venom is a known character in this universe, that has nothing to do with her. Except in the Venom arc if there is one...and if I recall, I don’t remember if Venom has black web either... Point being she just has black webs because I felt like it.

I may do a rough idea of her dragon form. In normal Marvel, it’s just BlackDragon but with a more fit build. Since after a while of doing this hero thing, she loses some weight. Not a lot, but it becomes mostly lean muscle from her crime fighting. Never loses the bit of paunch she has though. lol As Dragon Spider, I think she’ll be scaly instead of furry...actually no. Spiders are hairy... I’ll think of something to make different. Aside from maybe being smaller and without wings. Or wings for only gliding. Adding to the Spider element by having to climb walls in both forms.

Headcanon: Peter & protein bars

Peter's metabolism makes him hungry all the time. He stared carrying protein bars in his backpack, but after complaining to Luciana about how expensive they were, she taught him how he could make them himself. She pointed out that cooking was just like a science experiment, taught him how certain things worked as well as the cooking lingo, and from then on, Peter became a great cook. As long as he has a recipe in front of him, he can cook nearly anything. Now he makes his own protein bars, and shakes, and other snacks. @dragoness-has-taken-flight
