SPIDER-GWEN Swings Into New #1

The surprise hit Spider-Gwen will be relaunching with a new #1 following Secret Wars.  Spider-Gwen was the breakout character from the Spider-Man event Spider-Verse.  She just finished her first story arc, and is currently guest-starring in the Secret Wars spinoff, Spider-Verse (same name as the earlier event, but slightly different).

We know she survives Secret Wars, and will continue in her own solo adventures with the same creative team of Jason Latour, Robbi Rodriguez and Rico Renzi.

Apparently, she will be spending time in her own dimension, while also visiting the main Marvel universe.  I thought the point of Secret Wars was to streamline everything and do away with alternate universes.  Maybe this will be explained further.

Another quick note – on the image below, there is an ad with a phone number to call to “Stop The Spider-Women”.  We know Spider-Gwen is actually called Spider-Woman in her universe, but the ad says “women” plural.  So are there other heroes running around that we haven’t been introduced to yet?  Hmmmmmmmmm.

SPIDER-GWEN #1 Swings Back Into Action This Fall!

New York, NY—June 24th , 2015— She’s back! The character that took the world by storm, launched thousands of cosplays, fan art, music and more is swinging back into comics this fall for SPIDER-GWEN #1 – a brand-new ongoing series! The red-hot creative team of Jason Latour, Robbi Rodriguez and Rico Renzi return to chronicle the adventures of Marvel’s breakout sensation!

“This book has defied all expectations, mine included, and has continued to thrive and grow,” says series writer Jason Latour, in an interview with Marvel.com. “I can’t tell you how precious of an experience that makes it. Re-launching and being put out there on the front lines as a tent pole kind of title really is a tremendous opportunity to open our doors to everyone again.”

Now is your chance to jump in, with a clean entry point into the character that has the world buzzing! Plus – the answers you’ve all been waiting for! The secret history of Gwen Stacy and Peter Parker finally revealed! Someone out there has recreated Peter Parker’s Lizard formula. The same formula that ultimately cost him his life and branded Gwen a fugitive. And she won’t let it happen again! But with NYPD Captain Frank Castle and the Kingpin of Crime Matt Murdock both on her tail, that’ll prove easier said than done. Who could be behind all of this? The answers will shock you!

“We’ll also finally meet Norman and Harry Osborn. That seems like it could be pretty significant, huh?, continued Latour.

The epic next chapter of Gwen Stacy’s life is about to begin. And you won’t want to miss the bombastic debut as she swings into comic shops once more this fall in SPIDER-GWEN #1!
