Role in Counterfeit Island
When you first go into the island, Black Widow first disguises herself as the Chief Inspector, Veuve Noire (also meaning Black Widow in French). She was pretending to be a private investigator. But when the curator gives you something at the Pop Art Museum in Early Poptropica, it is a key to Black Widow's house. So when you go inside the house, you find a painting. When you click on it it will reveal "The Scream". After that, the lights go out and you get beaten up by Black Widow. You wake up tied to a chair along with the mysterious man you met earlier. He explains to you that Black Widow betrayed him. After you get free, you come to in an underground hideout. After making your way past her guards, you use a key card the mysterious man had dropped earlier to get into her private gallery. Then Black Widow shows up to challenge you. Realizing that she may soon be defeated, she suffers a breakdown and decides that if she cannot have all of her stolen art, then no one can, and she begins to throw it from a high ledge to be destroyed. In order to defeat her, you must catch every painting and statue she drops. When she gets mad because you caught four paintings, raise the mysterious man on a lifting thing. Once it is high enough, the mysterious guy knocks her out. When he defeats her, she goes to prison. You then earn the island medallion.

Role in Reality TV Island
She is one of the Reality TV Island contestants.You may think she is terrible and weak but she is skilled. Before each challenge, she says, "Watch out-black widows bite!" or, "Ha! These challenges are child's play!', or "You can't defeat me!" or, "Losing is not an option."

Role in Super Villain Island
At an unknown point of time,the Black Widow was shifted and held captive in Erewhon Prison For Super Villains, in the Dream Machine capsule and she is one of the villains you have to travel into the minds of to get her totem. It appears that by this time, she has lost her obsession for stealing art, but has sunk deep into self-obsession because she vandalizes art in her dream. Her dream is full of paintings of herself, most of them abstract, though her crowning piece is realistic. Paintings by other artist's have been vandalized and covered in graffiti saying things such as "trash" and "not art." You have to clean up the vandalism. As soon as you do, she will summon some spiders to attack you. After you finish cleaning up the graffiti, she will start chasing you and you must destroy her self-portrait to stop her. After you have done so, her totem, which symbolizes her evil and takes the form of a red paintbrush with a spider web pattern will fall to the ground. After all the totems (that are their source of evil)  have been extracted, Black Widow and the other villains escape. Her current whereabouts are unknown.
