Silk (character)
Silk is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by Dan Slott and Humberto Ramos, she first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #1 (April 2014). Silk is the alias of Cindy Moon, a Korean-American student who was bitten by the same radioactive spider that gave Peter Parker / Spider-Man his powers. After being a love interest of Peter Parker, she became a member of the Spider-Army / Web-Warriors and the Agents of Atlas, serving as a prominent character in Spider-Verse (2014–2015), Spider-Geddon (2018), and End of the Spider-Verse (2022–2023).
She is portrayed by Tiffany Espensen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) films Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017), Avengers: Infinity War (2018) and the extended cut of Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021). The character will also appear in the Gwen Stacy spin-off solo film Spider-Woman, set in the Spider-Verse franchise.
The character first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man vol. 3 #1 (April 2014) as a faceless cameo and was created by writer Dan Slott and artist Humberto Ramos. She made several other faceless appearances throughout the volume's first story arc, before making her full debut in The Amazing Spider-Man vol. 3 #4 (July 2014), as part of a tie-in to the "Original Sin" storyline. An ongoing title featuring Silk started publishing in February 2015, with scripts by Supernatural writer Robbie Thompson and art by Stacey Lee. Silk volume 1 came to an end during the Secret Wars event. After the event, a second volume began which concluded with issue #19.
Silk was part of the new Agents of Atlas team, which debuted in a War of the Realms tie-in and later got their own five-issue limited series.
A third Silk ongoing series was set to be published in July 2020 by writer Maurene Goo and artist Takeshi Miyazawa, but it was withheld due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The series was released in March 2021 as a five-issue limited series.
A fourth Silk series was released in January 2022 by writer Emily Kim with Takeshi Miyazawa returning as artist.
A fifth Silk series was released in May 2023 with writer Emily Kim returning and Ig Guara as artist.
Cindy Moon is the daughter of scientists Albert Moon Sr. and Nari Moon and the sister of Albert Moon Jr. During a demonstration on the use of radioactive rays at a science exhibit, a spider is accidentally exposed to large amounts of radiation. In its dying moments, it bites teenage student Peter Parker, who, as a result, gains superpowers and becomes Spider-Man. Moments after biting Parker, the spider also bites Cindy Moon. Cindy's abilities, including organic webbing (unlike Parker), soon manifest but she is unable to control them. Ezekiel Sims eventually approaches the Moon family to offer his help and guide Cindy in controlling her newfound abilities. After six years training to use her powers, Cindy is locked up inside a facility by Ezekiel and his ally Tamara Pearson to protect her and the other "spiders" from Morlun and his family called the Inheritors.
