A SPIDER-GEDDON TIE-IN!
• Trapped on a parallel world as her friends are dying, there's something very familiar about SPIDER-GEDDON to Gwen Stacy.
• But with her teleporter watch destroyed and no way to get home, Gwen has no choice but to sit idly by while her friends suffer and the Inheritors wreak havoc across the entire Web of Life and Destiny!
• Heh. YEAH RIGHT! Strap in, kids, things are about to get NUTS.
Rated T
The second issue of Ghost Spider is a real treat and assuming we pick up from here after Spider-Geddon, Gwen Stacy is in good hands with this team as they prove they can tell a story that speaks to not only who she is with the mask on, but also underneath it. Read Full Review
SPIDER-GWEN: GHOST-SPIDER #2 is a strong follow-up to an impressive first issue. The writing is tight and fast-paced, with excellent pencil and color work. This may be a new favorite of mine among Marvel's current crop of titles. Read Full Review
Gwen has a lot to take care of and being stuck in another world isn't one she wants. What she feels she NEEDS to be doing is saving her friends from the Inheritors but instead, she is stuck helping this world's Peter Parker save his Universe from the threat of the Green Goblin, who may also be the only one that can help Gwen!

It looks really good and the world-building is fun, but it's hard to escape the shadow of Spider-Geddon. Read Full Review
Its easy dialogue keeps the issue moving, but fans may put down the issue wishing for something a bit more substantial. However, the latest issue ends on a promising note and imbues enough Stacy Sass to keep readers hooked for another read. Read Full Review
Spider-Gwen gets to know the local Spider-history (tragic) and makes an uneasy alliance with AU Peter Parker (actually a bit of a jerk). This is a quiet interlude devoted to world and character building, and I enjoy the deft skill with which this is handled. While Gwen pays more than passing service to her urgent desire to rejoin the Big Dumb Event™ now in progress, her creators are laying groundwork for longer stories.
A lot of this issue is spent building this new world that probably won't matter after Spider-Geddon so that's a little frustrating. But the world is interesting, at least, or how Gwen reacts to it. There's a lot of exposition here, but at least it wasn't the fifth time in this arc that we get this unlike some other series. Not as good as the first issue, but still pretty good.
Good story! I can see if they have her ongoing series be on this earth. But seriously this feels like a waste to call it a tie-in to spider geddon. Art was good except many times Peters face didn’t really match the writing.
I hope this doesn’t take too long!
