History:
(Amazing Spider-Man III#13 (fb) - BTS) - At some point, "Menace" came under the thrall of the Inheritor Verna and was transformed into one of her near-mindless Hounds.

(Amazing Spider-Man III#13) -The Inheritor Verna and a group of goblin-themed Hounds teleported to the Earth-001 location of Earth-616's Silk and Spider-Woman, and Earth-65's Spider-Woman, in an attempt to capture Silk for the Inheritors. Engaging the three spider-heroines, Verna ordered "Menace" and the other Hounds to apprehend Silk while Verna's siblings Bora and Brix announce their plans to capture Silk themselves.

(Amazing Spider-Man III#14 (fb) - BTS) - While the two Spider-Women battled "Menace" and the other Hounds, Verna absconded with Silk.

(Amazing Spider-Man III#14) - "Menace" continued to battle the three spider-heroines until members of the Multiversal Spider-Army arrived to help. Following the Hounds' defeat, the Spider-Army departed for the Great Hall to rescue Silk.

Comments: Created by Dan Slott, Giuseppe Camuncoli and Cam Smith.

    "Menace" was never actually identified by any name in her two appearances. She did resemble a Hound version of Earth-616 Menace (Lily Hollister) and could very well be the Earth-001 counterpart of her but we are not given enough information in her appearances to know for sure. She may not even be called Menace and she may or may not be a counterpart of Lily Hollister. Additionally, the only powers we see her display are superhuman strength and durability.
