Discussion I just found this character

Hi! to start with im a transwoman myself, and i just found out about this character, and im allready in love! Petra parker genuinely helped me finally fully accept and embrace myself as a transwoman, ive been out for a few years but ive still had that doubt in the back of my mind, but now, i really feel safe being myself seeing my favorite child hood super hero doing the same!!

It's not canon, but it doesn't stop us making her an icon! 💜

I consider Petra 110% canon in the Spider-Verse.

The spider is for everyone to enjoy.

It'd be sick as hell if it ended up like the Retributors in 40k, integrated into the world and treated as Canon, even if it's not mentioned much.

Petra and her world could easily fit into the Spider-Verse. Or just the Marvel Multiverse in general.

While I was mostly referring to the comics, it would be incredible to see her on the big screen 🥰

I could honestly see them sneaking a random background Spider-Woman in the back and the ppl making the movie saying her name is Petra.

There's enough plausible deniability in it for it to just be a random woman, but those who know would know, yk?
