ASM and other Spider-Books return in May

I really wish they'd just give Ottley the whole book. The man can work on a consistent schedule. He did it for years on Invincible

He was super fast on Invincible, too. And he seems to keep missing the “bigger” stories on ASM

Exactly. I think there may be some editorial shenanigans that we're not privy too.

Are Amazing Mary Jane and Gwen Stacy coming out in May?

Nope. As far as the current release schedule goes, those books won't be on the docket until after July 8.

Bigger question: where can I read them, physically?

Since the "when" part of the equation is still unknown, assuming the plan, if there is a plan, since all comic book stores are much smaller businesses, probably differs from store to store, state by state.

These release dates coordinate Diamond's distribution, so I would assume that the stores who use Diamond would carry them!

Any shop still physically closed by then needs to use mail order. There's no excuse not to be selling the comics when they get released.

Gwen really has fallen short lately...

Gwen really has fallen short lately...

It seems like Marvel is always trying to make something out of Gwen, and except for Emma Stone, they come up short.

Her alternate universe status must be hurting her. Some people don't think stories outside the main universe matter.

Well that should be less true for this volume since it's been in 616 half the time, so I don't think it's a factor.

Natural attrition.

Creative team changes.

The book looking and feeling more like a traditional super hero comic.

A rebranding.

I think these are all contributing factors in the book's declining sales. Unless something truly catastrophic happens in the real world, I'm sure Marvel will try again in the future.
