Spider-Girl and she's not a Marvel character! That's right, the first woman to use that name was otherwise known as Miss Carter, a spider breeder of some repute who was kidnapped along with her livelihood by crooks just as daring magazine editor Cliff Crosby wanted to do a puff piece on her. He helps her out and foils a scheme to corner the market on spider webs used by scientists in certain experiments.
I can't make that stuff up.
But we ARE talking about a strip where an editor is more in the field than his reporters, and once wore an octopus on his head to scare an Amazonian tribe, and fought both a polar bear and a cobra(!) in the Arctic! This is pretty tame in comparison.
