Black Arachnid III (Open Source)


Real Name: Max Snowe (II)

Created by: Marz Workman, 08-17-2019, #oscgchallenge

Origin
Max grew up training with his father, the original Black Arachnid, hero. When his father was killed while battling a super villain, Max donned the suit and gear of the Black Arachnid. He found and killed the villain. He then became the next Black Arachnid and became a hero like his father. Soon, he became the target of all villains in the city. Tired of the attacks, he began killing the villains, and then started hunting them down, but not for justice. After some time, he found himself the target of a popular hero team. He battled and killed one of the members. Another member used his powers to open a portal and remove Black Arachnid from the universe.

Max awakens, floating on a plank, in a sea filled with junk. He sees a city nearby and makes his way to shore. When he stands on the dock, he sees a city that appears to be 1920’s America. He walks through the city and sees gangsters and hears swing music. He finds a change of clothes, leaving his arachnid gear on, and heads into the nearest club. He finds the “boss” and asks for work. He quickly becomes the top muscle in the gang. His work takes him outside of Sarcago Heights (1920’s), and he learns what Sargasso City really is. He uses this to kill the “boss” and become the leader of the gang, publicly working as Widow Corp. Widow Corp. becomes the most feared gang, and Black Arachnid the most feared boss in Sarcago Heights.

Max never tries to return to his world.
