A bit disappointed that it doesn't look like we're getting even another miniseries of her, but at least there's the Arana/Spider-Man 2099 prose novel that came out last month, so it seems like Marvel isn't completely shelving her. As for Kris Anka's concept art for Arana in Across the Spider-Verse, I'd have at least gone for keeping her hairstyle (and eyewear) more familiar --- though I am glad the design used in the end brought back the carapace. Not to mention, either way, I did not know I needed "muscle mama Arana" in my life until that point. Makes me think that if there's ever another Marvel vs. Capcom crossover (game or comic), that version of Anya Corazon should meet (and team up or brawl with) Marisa from Street Fighter 6.
The spider is always on the hunt.
I bet Peter is probably taking it easy, getting in some back-from-the-dead cuddling time with Mary Jane, spending quality time with Benjy while doing Spidey stuff with Mayday when he has free time. I imagine he is currently unemployed due to having been...well...dead and then turned into a giant spider and then imprisoned on Earth-001 for quite some time. Of course, that can easily be fixed.

I'm not loving this new look for Anya. It seems like it pays homage to her original look, but for some reason it just doesn't do it for me.
We are the Dora Milaje. We are the daughters of the 18 tribes of Wakanda. We are the teeth of the Panther God. Out of 10,000 years of sweat and bloodshed and battle are we born. We are the women of this ancient land. Deadliest of the species. And our time has come!
