Who is Julia Carpenter?Īvengers West Coast #74 cover (Image credit: Marvel Comics) Sadly, there's a reason we've been referring to the original Madame Web in the past tense, as she was killed by Ana Kraven, the daughter of Kraven the Hunter, in the story ' The Gauntlet.' However, before her death, she was able to pass her abilities, as well as her mantle as Madame Webb, down to a successor - Julia Carpenter, the previously mentioned second Spider-Woman. The original Madame Web also has a connection to three heroes who have used the name Spider-Woman - she had a relationship with the second Spider-Woman Julia Carpenter (more on her momentarily), she acted as a mentor to the third Spider-Woman Mattie Franklin, and she was the grandmother of the fourth Spider-Woman Charlotte Witter. She first encountered Peter Parker when she aided him in finding the victim of a kidnapping, going on to act as something of a guide and mentor to Spider-Man over the years - even psychically learning his identity, though she later lost this knowledge after a near-death experience in a fight with the Juggernaut. Interestingly enough, Cassandra Web was also a mutant with the powers of precognition and clairvoyance, as well as telepathy. Amazing Spider-Man #210 cover (Image credit: Marvel Comics)
