Biography[]
Carlie Cooper was a forensics scientist employed by the New York City Police Department. She was born and raised in Queens. Her best friend was Lily Hollister and through her work, became close friends with Peter Parker. The two even began dating for a time. Because of the time she continued to spend with Peter, Carlie began to have suspicions about his dual role as Spider-Man. This took an abrubt change in direction however when Parker's spirit died and his body was possessed by one of his oldest foes, Otto Octavius. In short order however, Carlie discovered the truth that it was Doc Ock who was now upholding the identity of Superior Spider-Man.
Following a confrontation with the Green Goblin, Carlie was exposed to the Goblin formula, which radically altered her DNA, transforming her into a member of the Goblin's army. Along with the other members of the group, they waged war against the Octavius Spider-Man on Spider-Island.
Carlie was eventually given a cure to the Goblin formula, which restored her back to normal. However, her psyche was still in shambles following all of her recent adventures. Unable to deal with either Peter Parker or Otto Octavius, Carlie decided to leave New York and settle down some place less dangerous.
Powers[]
All of Carlie Cooper's powers were inherited after being exposed to the Goblin formula, and as such, was proportionally similar in strength levels to the Green Goblin. After being cured, all of her powers disappeared.
