So let’s take a brief look at the strange tale of MARCY KANE!

roblondon.bsky.social•5 days ago

Our story opens in 1979’s Spectacular Spider-Man #32, by Bill Mantlo and Jim Mooney! Peter Parker’s late for his first day of grad school, and he makes a great first impression by plowing right into his supervisor!

This is also how he meets fellow grad student Marcy Kane. His first impression of her gorgeous gams is not appreciated.

In fact, she pretty much tells him that he sucks and she hates him right off the bat.

From there on out, she and her fellow grad students become part of Spider-Man’s supporting cast. Peter had a romance with Debra Whitman (who is a whole ‘nother story), while his relationship with Marcy was antagonistic.

She got her own little subplot about hiding her naturally brunette hair with dyes, hats, and wigs, but then just became a brunette anyway.

It wouldn’t be the only thing she was hiding…

It was with drugs! He fell for a different kind of Mary Jane in the 1990s.
