**Anna May Watson-Parker**, also known by her superhero alias, **Spider-Girl**, is an American crime-fighting vigilante, and one of the many Web Warriors of her universe, as well as being the firstborn child/daughter of the first Web Warrior, Peter Parker, also known as the Amazing Spider-Man, and Mary Jane Watson, also known as the Spider-Woman. She is the elder sister of Ben Parker-Watson, who also happens to be the hero named Spider-Boy. Together, they make up the crime-fighting Spider-family, which extends to Peter's twin sister Teresa Parker, who happens to be the Scarlet Spider, and her husband, Kaine Reiley, the hero named the Ghost Spider, therefore making her the cousin of their son Gerry Drew-Parker Reiley, who operates under the heroic alias of the Skull Spider.

A year into their marriage, Peter and MJ give birth to Anna May who soon starts manifesting her father's spider-powers, genetically inheriting it from him. From a very early age, Anna was a very curious, inquisitive, enthusiastic, giddy, adventurous and proactive girl, wanting to follow in her parent's footsteps and be a hero herself. As a child, she operated as the hero named Spider-Ling by nagging her parents into letting her be a hero until they gave in, however, as punishment, she was forced to bear this embarassing name. She was an overzealous hero, wanting to enjoy the thrills of the superheroic lifestyle as soon as she got a sense of what to do with her powers and dreamt of becoming a famous superhero, like her father before her, as well as the rest of her fellow Web Warriors family. Often times, because of her hyperactive nature, she landed in more trouble while fighting crime than she could handle, but gradually her parents helped her become a more responsible, sensible hero who doesn't rush headfast into the action. After the birth of her brother, Anna became much more mature, responsible and was very protective of her brother, who was always very frail and weak as an infant.

Heading into her teenage years, Anna May became a bit more rebellious, feeling the need for more space for herself and much more independence that what her parents offered her, always being overprotective of her due to the possibility of her leaking her own secret identity. She also developed a platonic love-hate relationship with Normie Osborn, the son of Harry Osborn and Liz Allan Toomes, who had inherited Osborn as a child and had fallen into the same trance as his father and grandfather, taking dosages of the Globulin Green to be a ruthless corporate leader, exact vengeance against Spider-Man who he misunderstood to be his father's murderer, and make Oscorp a superior enterprise. Anna felt sympathetic and sorry for Normie due to his tragic and pitiful upbringing and her desire to help people no matter overpowered Normie's continuous transitions into his villainous side. Anna, Peter and MJ were soon able to stop Normie from releasing a giant Goblin remodelling of the Sentinel Robot from tearing the city apart and help him overcome his need for vengeance and help him get better from his borderline psychotic mental state, thanks to the Globulin Green's side effects.

While heading into college, Anna helped show her brother the ropes for being the next Spider-Ling, until he eventually became rebellious himself due to his sensitive, vulnerable, weak and insecure state of being, changed his entire attire, and dubbed himself as the Spider-Boy, wanting to be a more powerful and independent hero. He even went rogue for awhile, and Anna and her parents had to convince him to return from the dark side before it was too late.

She has had a fascinating track record of helping rogue people turn straight like Normie,  Benjy (for awhile), and also her cousin Gerry, who was a young hero like them with a lone-wolf complex and a bad attitude, which is why others disliked him. However, Anna was able to see through his guise as a solitary, arrogant and demeaning no-nonsense hero. She was able to sense that he just had tough times relating with others and felt disassociated from humanity, just like how she once felt herself, and helped him open up. Out of greatfulness for helping him through his internal woes, Gerry let her pick his alias as the 'Skull Spider,' with Anna's reasoning for him to adopt this name as being 'a badass name able to strike fear into the hearts of criminals.'

Although she would prefer to call herself Spider-Woman, she feels that she is not completely worthy of following in her father's footsteps and is still indecisive and not mature enough to be granted the title of her mother and Gwen Stacy, before her, thus still calling herself Spider-Girl.
