Origin

Max Snowe is the son of the original Black Arachnid. His father trained him all of his life to continue the tradition. When his father was killed battling a villain, Max assumed his father's role as the Black Arachnid. Max is young, but capable of continuing his father's work.

Other Information

While the Black Arachnid has no superhuman powers, he uses a variety of gadgets in his adventures. He wears cartridge launchers on his hands. He can load them with micro-netting coated in high-tack adhesives which acts as his spiderweb, micro-grappling hooks used for swinging, climbing, or repelling, and toxin dipped darts that can paralyse an opponent temporarily. The palms of his hands and soles of his feet have micro-hooks (similar to the micro-grappling hooks) he uses for clinging to objects. His belt holds replacement cartridges for his cart launchers.
