    Yeah, I saw a few sets at my local Barnes and Noble that had this and a Spider-Cycle set.

    I hope we get Spider-Man x Ghost Spider in this movie. *crosses finger*

    Edit - Ghost Spider vs Green Goblin would also be nice for meta reasons.

    Why is she even called that, aside from marketing? Because she looks like a ghost?

    The name just doesn't make sense to me.
    Could be because 616 Gwen is canonically dead, while this Gwen is not and therefore resembles sort of revenant of Gwen or ghost if you will.

    Plus the color scheme of her costume is the same as that of the actual ghost spider (no joke), the albino version anyhow.

    I mean, that could work, but it doesn't really make sense from an in-universe standpoint.

    It's because that for some reason Marvel doesnt like the "Spider-Gwen" name.

    Is because, in-universe, Spider-Gwen doesn't make sense. Well, makes sense now, but if you want to handle a secret identity, you wouldn't go around with calling yourself "SuperCharles"

    I was responding to AdventureBliss, who said that Marvel doesn't call her Spider-Gwen because they hate that name. That's why I said that the name made no sense in-universe and that's why it's not used as a moniker. However, now that in her universe her secret identity is public, she could be called Spider-Gwen, but that's not happening since it just doesn't sound good even from a civilian standpoint.
