Spider-Girl #70
Writer: Tom DeFalco
Penciller: Ron Frenz
Penciller: Ron Frenz
Synopsis: An admirer gives Spider-Girl assistance against Drs. Jade and Octopus.
Comments: First appearance of Spider-Girl's SWAT team, courtesy of the Black Tarantula.
There seems to be some disconnect between what DeFalco writes and what Frenz draws on how Spider-Girls escapes her bonds. The artwork seems to show Spider-Girl snapping her cuffs when she has a moment to concentrate, but the text says Man-Wolf's claws help slash through them. I don't think Man-Wolf's claws are drawn anywhere near them.
The Black Tarantula seems to have taken a shine to Spider-Girl. He's likely unaware of her age or perhaps it wouldn't matter to him. It's reminiscent of how the Black Cat was in love with Spider-Man, but couldn't bear to look at Peter Parker. The Black Tarantula is a hereditary title like the Black Panther or the Phantom, passed down from father to son. Fabian LaMuerto probably sees Spider-Girl as the ideal mate.
