My favourite version of Gwen Stacy. Lucky to own two first printings of this, her debut as Spider-Gwen.

Uh, I liked her much better as an Earth 65 exclusive who occasionally crossed over into 616 for major events.
She's still an interesting character at times but creative decisions in recent years have made the bloom come off her rose for me which is a pity.
"So you've come to the end now alive but dead inside."
Yeah, even her upcoming Marvel Infinity comic is going to be set on Earth-616. I know she was kind of becoming obsessed with Earth-616 at the beginning of Gwenverse because in comparison to her universe there are a lot more supervillains to fight and stuff but perhaps they (Peter, Miles and her dad) should sit her down for an interdimensional intervention or something. Can you get addicted to Multiversal travel? Hmm...
"The Enigma Force is not a tool to be manipulated by mortals. The Enigma Force comes to those it deems worthy. What temerity, what arrogance, makes you think you are worthy? Have you not all made mistakes? Unforgiveable ones?" - Captain Universe
"Call me an Avenging Angel, Baron, come to safeguard Earth...call me CAPTAIN UNIVERSE!" - Ray Coffin
"You're my heart, Mary Jane Watson...you're my jackpot." - Peter Parker
They actually gave her a reason to be on 616 too - Sue and Johnny Storm of Earth-65 are villains, and have run her out of town. Gwen needs to bring their 616 counterparts to knock some sense into them.

I'm keeping my expectations tempered on this one, resolving old storylines i mean. I'm hoping to get AT LEAST another mini after the gwen-verse 2: electric boogaloo in march and will be quite satisfied with them actually giving her another stab at a solo ongoing, if we're lucky. Hopefully featuring in ATSV gets that train going. Happy new year!
