Gwen Stacy Will Swing Back Into Action In Oddly Titled New Marvel Comics Series SPIDER-GWEN: SMASH

We're not entirely sure what to make of that title, but Gwen Stacy is going to face the music later this year in the pages of Spider-Gwen: Smash, and you can find details and a first look after the jump...

This December, we'll get caught in the twisted web of Earth-65's Gwen Stacy in an all-new Spider-Gwen limited series.

First announced at last month's San Diego Comic-Con, the newly titled Spider-Gwen: Smash will be written by Melissa Flores (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers) and illustrated by Enid Balám (Kate Bishop: Hawkeye).

One of the Spider-Verse's biggest stars, Gwen Stacy, the superhero also known as Ghost-Spider (though she's never really shaken that "Spider-Gwen" moniker), will return to her native dimension for an action-packed music tour gone wrong. On the road, we and Gwen will meet awesome new Earth-65 versions of popular heroes, including music legends Dazzler and Lila Cheney, deadly new villains, and more. 

The Mary Janes are off on a four-city tour as the opening act to one of Earth-65's biggest rock bands. Gwen has promised the band that this big break will be all about the music. No web-slinging, just drums. But when a mysterious assassin targets the headliner, Gwen begins to wonder how she got this gig in the first place.

"I am having the time of my life writing this limited series!" Flores says. "Getting to explore Gwen Stacy's musical side as she goes on tour with the Mary Janes in her home dimension is an utter delight."

"Not only will the limits of Spider-Gwen's aka Ghost-Spider's powers be tested against some unexpected new enemies, but so will her relationships. There isn't an escape portal to another world when things get uncomfortable inside a tour bus!"

It's been just shy of a decade since Spider-Gwen was introduced and she's become a firm fan-favourite. On screen, we've seen her take centre stage in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, though the web-slinging superhero has yet to make her live-action debut (which feels overdue).

You can check out the main cover by David Nakayama below, along with variants by Elizabeth Torque and Peach Momoko. Stay tuned for more on Spider-Gwen: Smash as we have it.

@SATW42 - Honestly, that's almost quaint. I, too, used to jerk off to comic books, but that was 1988, when there wasn't just infinite porn on the internet.

@ClintThaHamster - they still mad April isn't their definition of hot though. They need their carnal desires met in every form of media at all times.

@DSAC294 - I have mixed feelings about her artwork, some of it is great but other times I think that's OK.

DSAC294 - 8/23/2023, 2:52 PM
@marvel72 - agree 💯 some of her cover art is crazy great and other times meh I just don’t get it. I’m a fan of a lot of the covers coming out from Rose Besch right now. But many of Peach’s covers do fetch big increases on the secondary market.

Thank you for once again assuring me I'm not the only pervert on this site.

Oddly titled? Did that need to be in the "title" of your article?

Glad everyone related to Peter has super powers now.

They should do a story where every other character gets Spidey powers except Peter and does better job than him even aunty May. And he should whine a lot.

That would be glorious.
