This Man, This Expletive Deleted
In the middle of New York City, Lady Stilt-Man was introduced by attacking Spider-Man with her armor similar to the original Stilt-Man. When questioned why she chose the name, she replied that it’s an homage to the original. During their battle, Spider-Man dodged her attacks, which eventually forced her robotic stilt into a high heel ornament on a truck. Deadpool then removed a sewer cap, and after Lady Stilt-Man lost her balance, she stuck her stilt inside the sewer. She fell to the ground, defeated, and began to sob.

Powers and Abilities
Lady Stilt-Man utilizes a suit that is very similar to that used by the original Stilt-Man. This suit provides full-body armor and has hydraulic legs that can extend to immense lengths, allowing her to propel herself into the air. The legs have also been shown to be quite flexible, unlike those of Stilt-Man. There have been some improvements to the suit and now she is capable of extending her arms due to limb extensors and hydraulics. Her strikes are more powerful and her arms can snare and coil around her enemies as well.
