Jody Houser wrote RYV from #13 (which outsold Slott's ASM that month) all the way to RYV#21. Just to add to that.

I agree, it's happened before but not too often. And yeah, it's a real shame we don't have many female creators working on Spider-Man. I'd add Ann Nocenti to that list. She wrote the famous "Mad Dog Ward" story which was more Peter focused but pretty interesting. Spider-Gwen is written by Seanan Mcguire.
