Quedó un poco mal la foto ya que la pequeña belleza es muy rápida y la capté con el teléfono. Pero es una cuchura saltarina, no es tan grande como parece pero realmente era hermosa. Otra cosa, también es inofensiva. #araña #saltarina
La Poltys mouhoti, o araña de hoja enrollada, parece mucho más fiera de lo que es. Nativa del sudeste asiático, se camufla como hoja durante el día y caza con una tela durante la noche. A pesar de su aspecto, es inofensiva para los humanos
After nearly a decade, Mark Brooks draws Anya again for the Hellfire Gala!
Feat. my second favorite superhero, Moon Knight!
To think that all these years ago, it was the original Avery/Brooks Amazing Fantasy/Heart of the Spider and Houston/Fincher Moon Knight that got me into comics!
I don’t buy it, as many people pointed out in the reddit comments (here’s the full “leak”) there are a lot of red flags of other fake leaks.
That said, I can’t help but to think this kind of plot is exactly what I would expect from Sony. Generic origin story, while shoving as much lore and characters in one movie as they can.
And my thoughts about the potential introduction of Anya in this movie are… not good. For starters, Anya is a character who literally has had more ongoing series and solo issues than any of the other characters in this movie. So they’d be erasing all her interesting backstory in order to turn her into Julia’s sidekick.
The only positive thing is Jenna Ortega as Anya (that does align with a previous leak from a more credible source, albeit they said they ultimately dropped the role), but even then it would be a waste to have her as a side character instead of being the lead.
Anya grew as a young child in Mexico City. Her dad was a crime reporter for an important newspaper in the city. Her mom is eventually allegedly killed by Mexican gangster Jade for her dad’s reporting. Ayna and her father moved to the United States city of New York. Where he got a job as a reporter at The Daily Bugle. Ayna was able to eventually pick up English but she still has a Mexican accent
.
She got her powers when she was 15. She’s wounded in the crossfire of a battle between two secret societies the spider society and the WASP Society. Miguel Legar a member of the spider Society saves her life he discovers that she destined to be an important person because spider Society. She accepts the mantle of the Hunter one of two superpower Protectors of the spider Society Miguel is the other one the mage. She is the same Powers as Spider-Man except she has the added one of mystical spider armor and she’s has a grappling hook instead of webs. Miguel Becomes Her mentor and partner in fighting the wasp Society.
So, it finally happened, Anya is back to Araña! And with it, a new costume!
My overall thoughts of the new costume: I love it! It combines the best of both, combining the more traditional spider-hero attire with the casualness and personality of Araña.
I know the Spider-Girl costume has its fans, but from basic character design it would never stand out. Let’s be honest here, when you think of a white spider with a black background, your first thought will always be Venom before anything else. The red and white make her stand out more among the Spider-Family since there’s no one with a similar color scheme. At the same time, her spider symbol is much more distinguishable rather than being a generic spider.
Speaking of the new symbol, I LOVE the heart motifs in there! In my own attempts at redesign I would also try to combine the spider with a heart, it’s a small motif that really tells you what makes her different from other spider heroes.
Some things about this redesign gives us some clues about her new status quo they are teasing. First and foremost, the most obvious is the return of the bolas. This implies she probably lost her organic web, and probably all her other Spider-Girl powers. The other thing is her sleeves; as meanwhile her right arm is completely covered, her left arm is exposed, with the tattoo being prominent.
Could it be that we could see the return of the carapace? Having the tattoo being so prominent probably makes it for artists to draw more henshin style transformations.
And speaking of henshin, that scarf tho….
Lastly, the… thingies she has on her hips.
I have no idea what are they supposed to be, but I can’t help but notice that those patterns look strikingly similar to those of the totem scrolls.
Could it be that her new status quo involves delving into a more mystical realm? I hope certainly hope so.
Probably the one drawback I have is the short hair. Her ponytail was iconic, it was the one thing that made her distinguishable from Venom. Yes, it’s impractical, but so are capes, and I don’t think we won’t be removing Superman’s or Batman’s anytime soon. Under the right artists, the ponytail was a extension of Anya’s emotions.
I do hope they bring it back, even if it’s a short ponytail like from early Araña.
