Harriet Garcia

"My name's Harriet Garcia. Most people call me Slinger. Others call me "Spider-Man but a girl." I prefer the former to the latter."

- Slinger

Harriet Garcia, AKA Slinger, is a fictional superhero created and appearing in stories by Marvel Comics.

History
Ever since she was a child, Harriet has been obsessed with the hero Spider-Man, with her dream being to grow up just like him, though her mother constantly tried to talk her out of this.

Throughout her life, she became friends with a boy and a girl named Kevin Coleson and Paula Rhodes, watched her older brother grow up and have a child, and changed quite a bit as a person but never gave up her dream of becoming like her idol.

Her IQ grew and grew over the years until she was the smartest kid in her school. Using her intelligence, she broke into a Stark Industries junkyard and took abandoned equipment made by Tony Stark, reworking it and tinkering with it until she turned it into something entirely new, using it and adopting her new persona of Slinger.

Abilities

 * High Intelligence: While not smart enough to be considered a genius, Harriet is able to reconstruct damaged or torn apart equipment in just a few hours, using this ability to create her new equipment.
 * Hand-to-Hand Combat (basic): Harriet has a basic understanding of how to fight someone. Her father is a fan of pro-wrestling and she incorporated some of the wrestler's fighting moves into her own fighting style. However, in a battle against an actual martial artist, she would lose instantly.
 * Photographic Memory: Harriet has the ability to recall the smallest of details from locations she has only seen once.
 * Mechanical Engineering: As mentioned several times, Harriet built her own equipment to help her be a proper superhero.
 * Multilingualism: Due to her father being Hispanic and her mother being American, Harriet is able to speak both English and Spanish fluently.

Equipment

 * Strength Enhancing Exoskeleton: Taken from an abandoned Iron Man armor, Harriet wears an exoskeleton underneath her clothes that grants her superhuman strength and doubles as at least a small amount of armor. However, due to not having any actual armor on her body if she tries to lift something to heavy for her she could break a bone.
 * Grappling Hook: Two small hooks attached to the center of her forearms which ejects and attach themselves to whatever she is aiming for by pushing a button on the bottom of her wrist. Due to being rather sharp they can double as weapons.
 * Sensor Goggles: A pair of goggles that she modified to mimic Spider-Man's Spider-Sense. They are naturally yellow but will flash red if she is in danger.
 * Sticky Gloves/Shoes: As their name implies, the sticky gloves/shoes have the ability to stick to any surface, though their ability to stick can temporarily fade if they are left in the sun for too long.

Trivia

 * According to her parents, Harriet was one of the people to be wiped out of existence by Thanos' snap in the Infinity Gauntlet storyline.
 * Harriet has met Kamala Khan, Ms. Marvel, and bonded with her over their mutual love of superheroes and the fact both of them were inspired by other heroes.
 * Harriet's least favorite superhero is Namor the Submariner, due to him being rather brash and, according to her, "just kinda jerky."
 * Harriet is stated as being rather pretty by a few characters, either as a way of complimenting her, flirting with her, or just as a regular statement. However, this always makes her quite embarrassed.
