Powers and Abilities:
As a result of a combination of a special serum derived from spider blood and a certain radiation treatment, Jessica possesses a number of superhuman powers. She has superhuman strength, that enables her to lift 7 tons, speed, reflexes, agility, endurance and durability. She can focus the bioelectric energy that her body generates into "venom blasts" sufficient to stun or kill normal humans, and she can also adhere to almost any surface by excreting an unknown adhesive substance from her palms and soles. Jessica rapidly forms an immunity to all poisons and drugs and is totally immune to radiation. Her body also exudes a high concentration of pheromones which elicit pleasure in most human males while eliciting fear in most females, though she often uses a chemical "perfume" that can nullify this effect. She has also demonstrated superhuman senses in her solo series. Jessica has lost and regained her powers more than once, but she has recently emerged with her powers restored greater than ever. She was once only capable of gliding with the help of the glider web extensions on her costume, but Jessica now possesses the power of full flight. Her top speed is as of yet unknown.

In addition to her powers, Jessica is also a superb hand to hand fighter and has trained in several styles of combat, including boxing, judo, karate, and capoeira, which she learned under the training of the Taskmaster. She has also had training in fencing and the use of many other weapons, including most firearms. Jessica was trained by HYDRA and later on by SHIELD in covert operations, stealth, espionage, and information gathering, and she is also a superb athlete. She speaks several foreign languages, including Korean, Russian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and German. Jessica also received vocational training in undercover detective work and sometimes carried a Walther PPK handgun.

Origin:
Jessica Miriam Drew’s parents were Jonathan and Miriam Drew, two scientists whose work was dedicated to trying to harness the environmental adaptive abilities of spiders by grafting elements of their DNA into the human genome. Prior to Jessica’s birth, the pair moved to Wundagore Mountain to conduct their research with funding from HYDRA under the auspices of General Wyndham.

While still an unborn child, Jessica gained superpowers when her mother's womb was hit by a laser beam containing the DNA traits of several different species of spiders.

Jessica’s parents disappeared from her life under mysterious circumstances and she was subsequently raised on Mount Wundagore by a woman named Bova. Later, she was recruited into HYDRA under false pretenses and trained and mentored by Taskmaster to become an assassin in their employ.
