Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew) is a fictional character, a superheroine in comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character first appeared in Marvel Spotlight #32 (cover-dated February1977.) Jessica Miriam Drew was born in London, England. At a young age, her family moved to a lab built by her father and Herbert Wyndham near Mount Wundagore in Transia, where she became gravely ill from months of uranium exposure. To save her life, her father injected her with an experimental serum based on irradiated spiders' blood. Because the serum required a month's incubation, Wyndham placed her in a genetic accelerator. Shortly after, her mother died and her father left for the U.S.A., leaving Wyndham to care for her. While in the accelerator, she aged at a decelerated rate. When she was finally released, decades later, Drew was only 17 years old.
