Marvel's Spider-Man's Black Cat Chases Her Tail Thanks To Glitch
A recent playthrough of Marvel’s Spider-Man saw Black Cat running in circles due to a glitch. Insomniac’s take on the mythos of Marvel’s iconic web-slinging hero features appearances from many of Peter Parker’s friends, enemies, and love interests — including Marvel's Spider-Man's version of the infamous Felicia Hardy and her feline-themed alter-ego, the Black Cat. In a similar vein to DC's Catwoman, Black Cat started as an enemy of Spider-Man, but soon found herself attracted to the wise-cracking hero and eventually became a partner in his never-ending battle against the forces of evil in New York — though she would often relapse back into a life of crime as their relationship soured.
As Marvel’s Spider-Man sees Peter Parker well into his career as a crime-fighter, his complex relationship with Black Cat is established as part of the game’s backstory, even as Mary Jane Watson serves as his primary love interest. Though Felica doesn’t appear in the main plot, a side quest has her call Spidey and task him with locating several Black Cat-themed dolls as part of a plan to retrieve her old gear from NYPD’s evidence locker. She would finally show up in the flesh in the Marvel’s Spider-Man: The City That Never Sleeps DLC, where Peter discovers that she is now working for the mobster Hammerhead. This naturally leads to a chase between the former lovers through the streets of Manhattan not unlike the ones featured in Black Cat’s subplot from the 2004 Spider-Man 2 tie-in game.
