Spider-Man had his cosmic adventures as well...but Philips casts them in a way that feels fresh and original while maintaining a sense of realism in Gwens emotional state that serves the current storyline quite well.

Theres a lot going on in and amidst everything that feels like its all reaching for a kind of character development rarely found in mainstream superhero comics.
