If you’re not familiar with Mayday, she’s taken from a storyline where Peter and Mary Jane’s daughter, May, grows up to become Spider-Girl.
Well, following that initial announcement of a new Spider-Girl, the character is now finally set to debut.

The problem is that we still don’t know much about the character, including her real identity.
In the introductory scene, Daredevil and Spider-Boy are under attack from Bullseye and a mystery assailant throwing spider-tracers.
This individual is then revealed to be Spider-Girl suggesting the character could, rather unexpectedly, be an antagonist.
Designer and artist Michael Cho was responsible for bringing the character to life, and I’m sure we’re going to see plenty more of her in the coming months.
