Shannon Kane was the widow of Harry Kane, a chemist employed by the government killed by “enemies of his country.” In her husband’s papers she found a “spider-web fluid” formula, which “sticks like glue—and it’s actually strong enough to swing on!” Shannon invented a set of bracelets to shoot the fluid. Coupled with her athleticism and a costume, she became the Spider Queen, the sworn enemy of all criminals. She also found a potential love interest in detective Mike O’Bell, who was as interested in the young widow as he was in the costumed heroine.
