Silk (character)

[2] Silk is the alias of Cindy Moon, a Korean-American student who was bitten by the same radioactive spider that gave Peter Parker / Spider-Man his powers.

An ongoing title featuring Silk started publishing in February 2015, with scripts by Supernatural writer Robbie Thompson and art by Stacey Lee.

Ezekiel Sims eventually approaches the Moon family to offer his help and guide Cindy in controlling her newfound abilities.

After six years training to use her powers, Cindy is locked up inside a facility by Ezekiel and his ally Tamara Pearson to protect her and the other "spiders" from Morlun and his family called the Inheritors.

At the waterfront where Parker Industries will be holding the demonstration for their new device meant to cure Electro, Cindy spins Peter some Electro-insulated webbing to prevent him from getting shocked again.

After returning to New York, Silk begins a career of crime-fighting while searching for her family, as well as continuing her job as a Fact Channel intern.

After two weeks of searching, she webs a group of Goblin Nation robbers up and takes their loot, a safety deposit box containing Parker Industries tech.

Silk, as a result of her Earth-65 counterpart's defamation, earns more of Black Cat's trust to gain deeper intelligence of her criminal operation, still intending to complete her mission and get whatever S.H.I.E.L.D.

Eventually, Black Cat discovers her alliance with Mockingbird,[23] In the ensuing fight, Cindy falls into a dumpster and is saved by Spectro, a mysterious figure who turns out to be her ex-boyfriend Hector.

[24] Hector died (while Cindy was being held in the bunker) when a neighbor attempted to summon a demon in his apartment block, resulting in him wandering the Material World and only being able to manage tangibility when in combat.

[26] Nari and her father, a prisoner of the Ash King, had originally traveled to the Zone in search of a blue substance they believed could help create an antidote that would have nullified Cindy's powers, thus removing the threat of the Inheritors.

[27] During the "Dead No More: The Clone Conspiracy" event, Cindy still feels distant from her family and does not make a lot of effort to spend time with them.

She and Hector decide to investigate Jameson's room in New U Technologies, and she uses her powers to create a different costume from her Silk outfit to avoid suspicion.

Meanwhile, Spectro finds a room with a number of test subjects in capsules and triggers the intruder alert, prompting Cindy to escape.

Mattie tells her that she is suspicious of the whole experiment as some of the resurrected have been showing slight behavioral glitches and takes her to "Haven", a place where they find Hector back in his own body.

Silk holds the door back to prevent more infected hosts coming in, and Mattie saves her from a carrier, passing out in the process.

[34] Later, while spending the night out in Koreatown, Manhattan, the group is ambushed by the alien Prince Regent Phalkan and his small army from Seknarf Seven.

The group is suddenly alerted by the news of Malekith's invasion of Earth; most of the New Agents of Atlas head to Seoul while Ms. Marvel joins Jake Oh and the Champions in New York.

Silk and the others defend Seoul from Malekith's ally Queen Sindr and her Fire Goblin forces from Muspelheim with help from the Korean heroes White Fox, Crescent, Io and Luna Snow.

Brawn eventually summons the Chinese heroes Sword Master and Aero, Filipina heroine Wave, and the Hawaiian Goddess of Fire and Volcanoes Pele from Shanghai to help assist in the fight against Sindr.

Isaac has his own suspicions of Mike and suggests the agents join him as Pan's protectors as it would be easier for them to gather information about the Big Nguyen Company from the inside.

Silk, Brawn, Sword Master and White Fox break into Nguyen's tower and discover a sea serpent imprisoned in a lab, while Shang-Chi and Crescent discover a secret tunnel in Jimmy's office that takes them to the Atlas Foundation's headquarters in the Pan sector of San Francisco, where they come face to face with Jimmy and Mr. Lao.

While Ikeda reveals the imprisoned dragon, which he captured a year ago for terrorizing the Mediterranean, is from Atlantis, an enraged Namor emerges from the waters off of Pan's coast and begins invading the city.

Namor demands the group to return the dragon stolen by the Big Nguyen Company in a day or else face the wrath of Atlantis before making his retreat.

As fighting each other openly would raze the planet, dragons have used humans as proxies in their own personal conflicts, making them responsible for almost every major war in history.

As Namor returns to Atlantis with Namora, Venus and Aero, the rest of the Agents uncover Nguyen in his personal bunker and confront him.

Still feeling guilty for Nguyen's death and angered with Woo's machinations, Amadeus quits the team but reassures Silk that his comm will still be open to her.

[61] In the manga Spider-Man: Fake Red, Cindy Moon / Silk appears as the best friend/partner of the missing Peter Parker, on whom she nurses an intense crush.

It is eventually revealed that he and Cindy were infected by a symbiote from an alternate dimension that killed their parents known as V-Star and were kept and studied in a bunker for nearly a decade.

[63] A live-action series based on Silk was in the works at Sony Pictures Television from Amy Pascal and Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, with Lauren Moon and Amazon Prime Video in talks to respectively write and distribute,[64] and Tom Spezialy hired as showrunner and co-executive producer alongside Moon.
