"The Marvel EIC Chair has a certain curse that goes along with it: it tends to drive people insane, and ultimately, out of the business altogether. It is the notorious last stop for many staffers, as once you've sat in The Big Chair, your pariah status is usually locked in." Christopher Priest
I agree with all of this (Hopeless is why I love Jessica as much as I do) and I really LOVE seeing Jess as a mom. I really think she just needs a really great writer to pull it all off.
I am worried about her for Spidergeddon though (especially after reading the OPs original post), if only because that November solicite for Spider-Force is the same as the October one? So either it's a mistake, or something big is going to go down in that book. There are several characters that are so similar to Jessica already and who are more popular :/ If you see where I am going on this.

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

This is why I'm desperately hoping those rumors about Jessica being in Far From Home are true! Her showing up in the MCU would be incentive to keep her around (or at least bring her back if something bad happened).
I went back and reread the last Spider-Woman after this thread and Hopeless really sold me on Gerry and on her little extended family with Ben, Roger, and Carol. It sucks that she's fallen into limbo when I think she had one of the best-established new supporting casts I've seen in a little while. There was a natural story engine in there.
You and me both. It's been pretty quiet on that rumor for awhile now though.
And yeah, I really love Jess' Family. Considering the who "Spiders don't have family" thing from Bendis' Origin to actually her having found her family by the end of her run. Yeah. Pretty damn perfect. I agree though - she still has PLENTY of stories to tell.
In regards to the OP - I don't see Miles, Gwen or Cindy going anywhere, but I guess we'll have to wait and see who's still around after Spidergeddon. Laura or Gabby either.
