Silk is a Korean-American superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.

Superhuman strength, speed, durability, reflexes, and equilibrium.

I will look forward to reading Sinister next.Textless cover of Silk #1 (February 2015). I learned that 1) Peter Parker is the one who freed Cindy from the bunker (probably in Spider-Verse) and he and Cindy used to have a thing, 2) Cindy has an eidetic memory, 3) her brother may have been caught up in a gang, 4) Jameson has a soft side to him.

The Life and Times of Cindy Moon then was the first comic that I read in the Silk series. I did borrow Spider-Verse from the library but it was a rather large collection of comics and I didn’t know if my desire to learn more about Cindy Moon was enough for me to dive in, so I didn’t bother to read it. Fabien (4/2017) from How to Read Me suggested starting with Amazing Spider-Man (v.3) #1-6, followed by Spider-Verse, but I have yet to read either one of those. I was introduced to Cindy Moon while reading my way through the Spider Gwen comics where she was referred to as Silk and while she did not play a major role in that series, I found her friendship with Gwen and Jessica Drew to be interesting. Some mysterious creeper has been monitoring her every move and may very well know what happened to Cindy’s family but what will it cost her to uncover the truth? She’s not the only one with a watchful eye on Silk though. Her handiwork, however, has made Silk a target, capturing the attention of Black Cat who really is not a fan of anyone who would get in the way of profit. Her greatest mission now is to find them and to adjust to a world that has morphed into something foreign while she was bunker bound.Ĭindy works for the Fact Channel by day and fights crime at night while capturing footage of Silk for Jameson. However, when she emerged 10 years later, her family was nowhere to be found.

It was believed that locking her up in an undisclosed location would keep them all safe.

Therefore she was tucked away in a bunker. Her resulting powers posed a threat to her family. What I do know though is that Cindy was bitten by the same radioactive spider as Peter Parker. Whatever happened in the Spider-Verse is the cause (but I have yet to read that volume). The Life and Times of Cindy Moon kicks off smack dab in the middle of a tussle with Dragonclaw, only to find out that Cindy’s powers are going a little bit bonkers and that nothing is working the way that it should.
