SPIDER-MAN #12 and SPIDER-GWEN #16 Heat Things Up!
I’m not reading a ton of Marvel these days ever since the most recent SECRET WARS event shuffled the deck and changed oh so many things that I loved about this universe. I’m pretty much just sticking to anything Jason Aaron writes (THE MIGHTY THOR, THE UNWORTHY THOR, and DOCTOR STRANGE). My one exception is SPIDER-GWEN because she is an awesome character living in an awesome universe referred to as “Earth-65″. Basically, Earth-65 is it’s own little universe just to the side of the main Marvel universe where Peter Parker got killed instead of Gwen Stacy AND she got bit by the radioactive spider. I think it works because it does not have to adhere to anything going on in the main Marvel U. If you haven’t read it yet, catch up with some of the collections Marvel put out. It’s well worth it if you ask me.
That said, Marvel does like dragging her over to the main universe from time to time and Gwen is currently experiencing a crossover with Brian Michael Bendis’ SPIDER-MAN series beginning with issue #12 which landed last week.
THIS IS IT! THE MOMENT YOU’VE BEEN WAITING FOR! THE KISS HEARD ROUND THE WORLD! The two most talked about heroes give us something new to talk about in this Spider-Man/Spider-Gwen crossover.
How did Miles and Gwen get here?!
So yeah, I guess her and Miles are a smoochin’ and the story continues within the pages of SPIDER-GWEN #16 which hits shelves this week.
Continuing the story from Spider-Man #12 vol 3, Miles and Gwen find themselves in an Earth-65 adventure that’s going to rock both of their worlds (and universes). Don’t forget to reserve your copy of this mini-crossover!
This crossover seems pretty fun. I normally just stick to my main series issues and skip any tie-in books, but I have a feeling this one will be worth the read.
