Silas Carter was just a twelve-year-old kid, navigating the tricky waters of middle school while hiding his passion for comics in the library's cozy corners. Most kids at Bridgeview didn’t notice him, and honestly, he preferred it that way; his world was filled with adventures on the pages of graphic novels. Everything changed on the day of the eighth-grade science fair. Silas wasn’t there to compete, just to help clean up afterward. While boxing up stray supplies, he stumbled upon a jar hiding behind some posters. Inside was a spider, bizarre and captivating. Its body sparkled like obsidian glass, while its legs glowed a soft blue, reminiscent of neon ink. Leaning in for a closer look, Silas was taken by surprise as the spider leapt, delivering a sharp sting to his hand. Later that evening, he found himself drenched in sweat, heart racing. His senses buzzed—he could hear a neighbor snoring two houses away. Over the next few days, things escalated. He could climb walls and leap higher than ever before, crushing his alarm clock by just brushing against it. As these strange powers unfolded, Silas couldn’t help but smile. This unexpected gift could change everything. With a glimmer of excitement in his eyes, he stood on the brink of new adventures, imagination dancing wildly as possibilities lay ahead.
