Who is Black Widow - Jessica Drew?
Black Widow Jessica Drew is from the alternate Ultimates Dimension known as 1610. In this dimension she is the clone of the original Spider-Man Peter Parker but is a female. She is born with some of Peter Parker's childhood memories and his powers. As she has grown older (She is only a few years old) many of these falsely imprinted memories have faded. She must deal with the fact that she was born from a science experiment like the rest of the Spider-Man clones. In addition to the normal clone baggage she must deal with having male memories with now being in a female body. Jessica has a strong attraction to red headed females,but it is not clear if these emotions are her own or if they are from Parker's memories. Jessica initially goes by Spider-Woman but later changes her name to Black Widow when she joins SHIELD.
