Spider-Gwen: Across the Spider-Verse
- Title: Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
- IMDb: link
Hailed by fans and critics as one of the best Spider-Man movies ever created, is it possible the sequel to 2018’s Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is even better? Yes, yes it is. Shifting the focus more on Gwen (Hailee Steinfeld) this time around, giving her equal star treatment along with Miles (Shameik Moore), Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is not only a great super-hero film but throws out the expected battle a new big bad by instead offering an existential discussion on what it means to be Spider-Man.

Spider-Gwen: Shadow Clones #1
For a comic full of lighter tones and banter, Spider-Gwen: Shadow Clones #1 gives us a pretty dark super-villain origin story to kick off the series when a scientist, ignoring all danger to herself and her significant other, remains in her lab with Ghost-Spider battling transplanted Spidey-villains the Sinister Six. Gwen is successful in leading the battle away and defeating the villains, but our scientist isn’t so lucky and blames Gwen, rather than her own stubbornness and stupidity, for what follows. Her plan for vengeance… is unique.

Spider-Gwen: Gwenverse #1
- Title: Spider-Gwen: Gwenverse #1
- Comic Vine: link
- Writer: Tim Seeley
- Artist: Jodi Nishijima
Gwen Stacys everywhere. That’s the gist of Spider-Gwen: Gwenverse when Gwen gets unintentionally added as an ingredient to a super-villain’s plan to overwrite herself into classic Marvel heroes across the multiverse. The result? Spider-Gwen’s world goes wonky, and in other times across other dimensions we have the creation of characters such Thorgwen (that was the best name you could come up with?).
Looking forward, it appears the series will be an interlocked number of What If…? style stories eventually rolled into one. Spider-Gwen: Gwenverse #1 offers a wonky set-up to allow Tim Seeley and Jodi Nishijima to play with any version of Gwen they can think up while Gwen is forced to fight and work with aspects of her own personality writ large. Is it worth $5 a pop? Maybe, eventually, for die-hard Gwen fans.
