Marvel Legends Magic: The Gathering Mary Jane Watson (Iron Spider)
Mary Jane Watson as the Iron Spider is a notable incarnation of Mary Jane that appears in Marvel Comics, specifically highlighted in The Amazing Spider-Man #15 (2018). After the Superhuman Registration Act was abolished, Mary Jane, who was working as Tony Stark’s assistant at Stark Industries, steps into the heroic role of Iron Spider during a critical battle against the villain Regent.
In this storyline, Spider-Man (Peter Parker) and Iron Man (Tony Stark) are incapacitated by Regent, and Mary Jane takes command by activating a modified version of the Iron Spider armor. Despite having no inherent superpowers, her experience with web-swinging and piloting advanced suits allows her to effectively use the Iron Spider suit’s technology. She helps to distract and battle Regent alongside Iron Man, enabling Spider-Man and other heroes to free those captured by the villain. After this pivotal event, Mary Jane puts away the Iron Spider armor, considering it a one-time use.
The Iron Spider suit grants Mary Jane enhanced capabilities such as extra articulated mechanical arms and increased durability, modeled on the high-tech armor initially designed by Tony Stark for Spider-Man. This version of Mary Jane as Iron Spider is a powerful and resourceful hero, showcasing her courage and determination to protect loved ones and assist in superhero battles—even without traditional superpowers.
This Iron Spider identity of Mary Jane also ties into the recent crossover with Magic: The Gathering by Hasbro, where a highly detailed Marvel Legends action figure and exclusive collectible MTG card feature Mary Jane in the Iron Spider costume, celebrating her heroic role in the comics and appealing to collectors and fans of both franchises.
