Marvel has had its fair share of terrifyingly powerful characters, with the Scarlet Witch being able to erase the existence of all mutants by simply saying ‘No More Mutants’, making her perhaps one of the most frightening and overpowered characters in the comics, and characters like the personification of Death itself in the form of a cosmic being. While compared to these, characters like Deadpool and Spider-Man sound menial, there is no doubt that they are perhaps, two of the most adored characters to ever come out of any Marvel comic.
Itsy Bitsy, Deadpool, and Spider-Man
Though the two are no joke themselves, being some of the most powerful characters on earth, with Spider-Man’s many powerful abilities, being incredibly strong, fast, and skilled at fighting, as well as possessing spider-sense, and Deadpool being unkillable and funny, the idea of a villain who is the combination of the two is truly terrifying. Let’s meet Itsy Bitsy, the child of Peter Parker and Wade Wilson.

Who Is Itsy Bitsy?
In the beloved comic book series titled Spider-Man/Deadpool, Weasel, who later became Patient Zero, made a deal with Mephisto to be able to come back to life to help him defeat Spider-Man and get revenge on Deadpool as well as take their souls. During this process, however, Patient Zero came into the possession of the DNA of both Deadpool and Spider-Man, which prompted him to inject them into a woman, turning her into what he called Susan Mary. Mary would sing the song The Itsy Bitsy Spider, which eventually gave her the name Itsy Bitsy.

Bitsy possessed the powers of both of the extremely powerful heroes, having superhuman agility, strength, and reflexes like Peter Parker, and regenerative abilities like Wade Wilson. Outside of this, her physical appearance also changed drastically, resembling a spider more than a woman, with eight limbs, six eyes, chelicerae in her mouth, and three fingers on each hand.

Deadpool Killed His Own Daughter
While Itsy Bitsy made her intentions towards Deadpool and Spider-Man very clear, calling the two ‘daddy’ despite their aversion to this sentiment, trying to convince the heroes that she simply wanted them to work together and fight crime as a team. Deadpool had adopted a no-kill-rule with working with Parker, who is famous for this, so the two told her that they would only agree to work with her if she stopped killing people. This was because their newly superhuman ward would do a lot of very bad things, all the while wearing a combination of Wade and Parker’s logos.
Itsy Bitsy and Spider-Man
The two had to eventually resort to worse methods when Bitsy’s monstrosities did not end. Spider-Man almost completely disintegrated Bitsy with the help of a plasma breeder before Deadpool stopped him from crossing a line he had never before and finishing the job himself. Bitsy, however, manages to survive this, but not without some sacrifices, being stuck in the form of a small spider, who could return at any moment.
