May Watson: The Other Side of the Web (Prologue)

Before the legendary web-slinger, there was May Watson, a young girl who learned the true meaning of strength. This heartfelt Prologue/Episode 0 transports us to May's childhood in 1960s New York City. Here, amidst the laughter echoing through tight hallways and secrets lingering behind closed doors, love was the unwavering thread that bound her family together.

Guided by the warm voices of her grandparents, Harold and Margaret Thompson, May and her fearless older sister Mary chased dreams and weathered storms, discovering the profound meaning of family in a world that often felt overwhelming. Back then, May wasn't folding laundry or supervising teenagers; she was the spark that ignited Mary's resilience.

This is May's untold story: a tale of quiet heroism, childhood wonder, and the subtle choices that would ultimately shape a legend. Because before the spider, there was love. Before the legend, there was legacy. And before the web… There was May.

(While "with great power comes… well, you know the rest," trust us—before the spider, things were already complicated.)
