Her lunch flies through the air, but Peter (aka Spider-Man) swoops in, stops her fall, and catches all of her lunch items on her tray.

Genuine Persian rugs are handcrafted, and their creation can take weeks or even months with the assistance of several people. However, the final products are unique, endearing, and robust rugs. Currently, wool or cotton is used to make the majority of Persian rugs, but older rugs were occasionally made with silk. Despite producing a beautiful appearance, using silk made these rugs more expensive and less sturdy.

Unfortunately, her study took a heavy toll on her health, eventually leading to aplastic anemia, which led to her death. The radioactivity not only damaged her, but it also impacted the majority of her things, including her clothes, furniture, and books.
