To Know Her Is To Fear Her: Jessica Drew The Spider-Woman Appreciation 2024

[Kurolegacy]

Yikes! Carol's new series (how many series has she had this century?!) looks like a failure, but Jess's isn't doing much better. I think SW need a better story to launch it. Frankly, I never gave a crap about her kid as I thought the writer who came up with the pregnancy story was smoking to much ganja.

Was this meant to be an ongoing? I thought that this was just a mini within Gang War.

Her costume is so iconic. I love it.

I'm so glad it made a come back.

Same. And while I don't mind if she were to switch to one of the others for a reason, the original should be the default costume. Even the jacket looks good on the original.

One thing I've always wanted was to see one or both of the cowled costumes come back for an issue or two. (Marvel Spotlight 31 and Marvel-Two-In-One 29-32)

Yes, this is an ongoing. It already has issues solicited past the end of "Gang War".

Issue 3 was awesome yet had a tragic ending/cliffhanger.

Yes a shocking, disappointing ending..I suppose we shouldn't be surprised, this sort of turnaround...makes the solicit for #5 poignant...

spoilers:

Hydra used tech to accelerate Gerry's aging and brainwash him - I wonder if both can be reversed? I remember Vulture having similar aging tech in the 90s Spider-Man series, which he used to de-age himself at someone else's expense.

Really? Freaking Really!!!

spoilers:

Why can't writers just leave stuff alone and let heroes have kids? Why do they pull this type of crap?? I liked Gerry as a kid and wanted to see him have a 'normal' life. I loved the stuff that Hallum did in his run with Gerry and Roger. Then we get Pacheco destroying one of them and Foxe destroying the other.

Marvel doesn't exactly fill me with confidence when it comes to spoilers:

kids sticking around

I wasn't sure either, and that's part of the problem.

[Dreaded Porcupine]

Wow I wasn’t expecting that ending. Not sure how this will pan out but I think Marvel is trying to fix what they think is a perceived problem. Can’t say that I liked it.

spoilers:

I guess that's one way to write around your protagonist having to worry about a young kid all the time.

To be fair, spoilers:

Frankin Richards was aged up in Fantastic Four to his mid to late teens. It lasted from FF 376 (March 1993) to FF 413 (April 1996.) Three years! This is comics and it can totally be undone. The only problem is the longevity of this book and if it will be undone here, somewhere else, or if ever.

spoilers:

IIRC...Franklin and Val...along with all the Future Foundation...were aged up as part of the story that had them spending years traveling outside normal time...so it was not like they were just artificially aged up to get rid of them as kids. And it was not done with the intention of "how do we get rid of the kid so we don't have to deal with him".
