I had a regular boring, lonely life. HAD as in past tense, I woke up in a box not really remembering anything until it happened a date, followed by a name and it all came to me. But that's impossible! Captain America exists, Tony Stark is real and I got bitten by a spider that gave me powers. I'm not a hero, I don't want to be one, yet... why is it fun to swinging through New York.

The last chapter I'll post HERE is CHAPTER 18. For those that want the rest of the chapters. Look for me as Lightblade23 on Scribblehub Archive of our own Fanfiction . net

Great pacing and really great character development. I don't want to spoil it, so I'll just say that It's also a really depressing and heavy read so if you're looking for something light, this isn't the story (still recommend you add it to your library though). Furthermore, the main character feels real. She has faults and she has a lot of them. Her thought process feels realistic. She isn't some edgy overpowered teenager who doesn't show emotion and always keeps a cool head, she feels like a real and believable person who's just trying to survive everything the world is throwing at her. Also, if your put off by the small number of chapters, just know that each chapter is very long. This read took me around 10 hours to finish so that might provide some base.

Im sorry the way it’ written is great the idea is good really there is nothing technically wrong with it. I just can’t read a story that makes me cry every chapter that makes me hate the main character more and more and it’s not her fault I think it’ just that for me the story is to real for a fanfic there is literally nothing fun to read in the story it just bashes over your head over and over life sucks everything will only get worse the Mc who is silk is getting blackmailed into stuff probably is going to be raped sometime soon and has major mental disorders I can’ keep forcing myself to read the next chapter hoping that some ray of light will enter the story

Ok hear me out here, this fanfic is well written, I admit, it has minimal spelling errors and the grammar is good, so that's always a plus.. but I just find it too depressing and miserable, I mean MC is an orphan, almost dies from bullying, gets abused by caretaker, shot at, more abuse, gets kicked out of orphanage, almost gets kidnapped and raped.. It's not a marvel fanfic anymore, it's a fanfic that's bloody part of the Saw franchise.. it's gotten to the point where MC is so abused and traumatised that, she's going to need at least 50 years to get over it and heal..

A truly amazing fic, and its only two chapters in. The author takes time to properly research Marvel and related things about the story, and that itself instantly makes the fic good because you can see how much effort the author puts in and it shows through the writing, such as researching psychological effects of some things, and incorporates it seamlessly into the story, Not a Mary Sue character, the MC has her own problems and that will be an integral part of her as a person, and we can see that clearly in the second chapter. I 100% recommend this as a read. The only word to describe this is Flawless. I just wish there was more chapters or frequent updates because it's JUST THAT GOOD.

Story wise it's well written and technically sound. That said, I don't like it. It reads like one of those Harry Potter fics that just goes on and on about the abuse, misery and self hatred like the author gets off on writing it. It seems to encourage the trend that heroes and main characters can only come from the ranks of the heavily abused, and its simply not a good headspace to be in. The story is largely extreme drama that makes you wonder if this is by the same author of those Turkish dramas your mom likes to watch, it's just too much drama to be likable to me. The mc is also a reincarnate, but is too stupid to think of any get rich schemes when thrown back into time with the mind of a genius... Instead the reincarnation aspect only serves for the extra drama of being a boy reincarnated in a girls body and litterally nothing else. The reason I rated the fic so high was because I rated it for the criteria listed by webnovel to rate on, not my personal likes or dislikes of it. I was initially excited for a good super heroine fanfic, but ended up more surprised that the usual orphanage underage girls pimping, gang rapes and other clichés didn't take place with how far the drama clichés were going and piling up. Then again, I couldn't bring myself to read past chapter 4. It was too much of a drama, angst milk for me to enjoy reading. Life is bad enough. Why make it worse by submerging yourself into drama and angst in your spare moments as well? But that's just me, and why to be fair I didn't bring my opinions and thaughts into the rating itself, only in this text below it.

I admire this author a lot. His word count for each chapter is especially admirable. As someone whos been familiar with silk and the spider verse in general for years silk was honestly so surprising to see on here. The author did well to not only give background but to do research in order to fill out those little details. Instead of saying “She was carrying a college level text book. Probably related to engineering and physics.” he said something along the lines of “She was carrying a book on muons in an anti electron field.” Or something of the sort my memory is not to good. However that little detail really helped guve imagery. The authors reasearch into trauma response is honestly what puts him a cut above everyone on this site. They stated they wanted us to care about the MC from the start and I think that’s largely neglected on this site. An OP MC does not call for half assing your work and yhats what most people tend to do on this site.

This is truly an amazing story. My parts of the story so far have not been action at all. This shows that the author is a truly talented writer and the effort they put in shines greatly. We get consistent updates and consistent characters who don't have rapid changes. The story is slow paced and perfectly fleshes out the characters. They have their own problems they have to deal with and have REAL struggles in day to day life, this is NOT a Mary Sue story. We have only seen two proper action scenes as of chapter 7 and they were both really good. This is definitely the best marvel fic you can find, and one of if not THE best fic in this app even with its limited chapters. The author takes the time to respond to last chapters comments in the newest chapter and creates a real connection with the reader as they put in effort. Definitely read it, you won't regret it.

This has a great Mc who does not want to be a hero for a stupid reason. The mc’s life is not perfect which makes sense and the author has obviously researched the plot and has put a lot of effort into this story. Author please do not drop this story😊

This novel follows one of my favorite writing rules that most fan fiction writers on this site completely disregard. Show, don't tell. The only exposition is done in character, and from where I've read, only about a spider. Great work, better than 99.99% of fan fic on this site. I hope it keeps updating until the story reaches a satisfying conclusion.

Great story very well written I’d say give it a read only thing is it has a heavy theme it goes in-depth about abuse and neglect and the effects it has on mental health I had to stop reading for a moment to reflect on my own issues after reading this and made me realize I should probably get help but besides that great read thank you author and I can’t wait to see what else happens

I don’t think anyone has noticed but the main character is autistic. It is going to make this very hard to read because he has a different thought process so yeah. I made it to chapter 7 and had to bow out
