Smash Champion
Character Name: Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew)
Character Origin: Marvel Spotlight #32 (1976)
Whilst some might deride the original Spider-Woman as merely a clone of the Spiders we have playable at the moment, I think Drew has the unusual capability of a truly unique moveset. Alongside being a Spiderverse mainstay - being a 616 character herself and one of the earliest Spiders alongside Peter - Drew differs in playstyle significantly. For example, she is able to glide using her costume - as well as having a moveset which uses 7 martial arts, taught to her by the Taskmaster. Coupled with her own Venom Blasts (similar in concept to Miles's, but used very differently,) and you have a pretty unique fighter for this game - a fast-paced hard-hitter, but with a more calculated playstyle as opposed to the mindless rushdowns of characters like Rhino and the other Spiders. Not only this, but she's also very important to the history of Spider-Man - many Spiderverse versions have come about more recently, but Spider-Woman is truly her own character.
