Fictional character biography

Ramsey Kole was a dancer of short stature who stole and drank some experimental chemicals that Bill Foster was working on, and grew to a height of 15 feet with extremely long arms and legs. Spider-Woman went looking for him, and now calling himself Daddy Longlegs, she defeated him, leaving him a dejected emotional wreck.

Daddy Longlegs was captured by the Locksmith along with a number of other superhumans, but they were freed by Spider-Woman. She threw a party for Kole and the other escapees, who were forced to forget her when she was believed to be dead.

Daddy Longlegs was later restored to normal by Dr. Karl Malus, who used samples from Kle to purify the Pym Particles.
