“Well, well. You and your little girlfriend are coming with me.” |
— Strong Spider to Red Son[src] |
The Strong Spider was a Spider Demon that worked for the Spider Queen.
History
Revenge of the Spider Queen
The Spider Queen ordered Strong Spider and Huntsman to track down MK and his team. They eventually threw a tracking device to the Dronecopter so they could know where they were going. Later on, they eventually arrived at the Celestial Realm to capture MK's team. However, they failed when the Monkie Kids and Red Son escaped.
Despite this, Strong Spider and Huntsman eventually got back to the city and participated in the final battle against the Monkie Kids, but were stopped when the Demon Bull King briefly joined the heroes.

Behind the scenes
- According to Villads Spangsberg, the Strong Spider replaced Spindrax in the show because of priorities, as the Monkie Kid crew difference in body type better and had to pick the most interesting characters to put on screen.[1][2]
Trivia
- He is the only Spider Demon without an actual name. Instead, he uses an alias like Spider Queen's other henchmen (ex: Tech Spider and Hunter Spider).
- As Strong Spider's name differs from his fellow Spider Demons, some Monkie Kid fans refer to him as Goliath, in reference to his size and the Goliath birdeater spider.

- ↑ Spangsberg, Villads. we had to pick the most interesting characters to put on screen and from a story and visual perspective we decided on the cast that made it to the final cut - the biker was down prioritized.
- ↑ Spangsberg, Villads. Also in animation, especially 2D, when you look at the silhouettes of the characters, you want somebody who’s not a minifigure if you can. So that’s why we went with the big, strong spider guy, who is just much more interesting visually, especially up against Sandy, rather than yet another minifigure biker.
