Look, up on the building! It’s Spider-Woman! In 1979, Jessica Drew was the first female Marvel superhero to get her own TV show, and it’s a wild ride! Her debut alone features a massive alien invasion, space mummies, a 60s Spider-Man team-up, jet-copter trips around the globe, and Jessica traumatizing her twelve-year-old nephew by falling out of a helicopter to fake her own death right in front of him. We dig into Spider-Woman’s origins, the inherent racism of ancient alien stories, and why Jeff just...just sucks so, so much.
