Also worth pointing out the band "Married with Sea Monsters" made a song out of MaryJane's "Face It Tiger" from Spider-Gwen

Also if you're in the NC area on the 28th, there is a launch party for Spider-Gwen. Signing by both Latour and Rodriguez, and an after party featuring Married With Sea Monsters. At said party they'll also be selling this amazing vinyl (Art by Rodriguez)
Really thinking about taking the trip up there TBH just for the vinyl.
I want this

Ant-Man.
Just read #2, then pick up her proper solo book. Spider-Verse can be summed up with "something something all Spider-people save reality from something something"
Neither will the Gwen series. But as loing as Spiderman doesn't go back to MJ I am good.
Alright but does she do anything in the other installments of Spider-Verse? I'm the type of person who drinks character development like it's water so I wouldn't want to miss some of that.

Nope.
She meets 616 Peter. But that's about it.

You make a good point. It would be fun to see it as kind of an Ultimate style series. Since Miles will likely end up in 616, this could be their take on a new Ultimate Spider-man. Hopefully at least the arch villain will be unique. (MARY JANE, lol)
Knowing Marvel, they'll cancel Spider-Gwen at issue 12 or 13 and then reboot it as Ultimate Spider-woman.

For whatever reason I mis-read/interpreted the title as Gwen Stefani being cast as Spider-Woman
Ant-Man and Squirrel Girl are both fantastic and better than Hawkeye in my opinion.
...Miles is many years younger than her. Pretty sure that'd be heavily frowned upon.
How old was Ultimate Peter when he died? Miles was 14 at the time, right?

Peter was 16

Huh. Nevermind then.

Hello, my name is Yves Guillemot, Vivendi S.A.'s Employee of the Month!
I'm not into comics but that's a pretty amazing character design.

I think the issue was worth it, and I bought 2 copies. The art is really nice.
Haha. That font is pretty tiny. I read the P as a D a few times.
Coil, I'll let her know. I take it it's good? Right now she buys Hawkeye, Ms. Marvel, and Spider-Gwen, and will read my Rocket Raccoon. She prefers the funny stuff.
We both read Squirrel Girl. I've been the one buying it. I wasn't planning on it, but I picked up the first issue for the Young variant and got hooked.
Ant-Man is very funny. Very charming. A bit more based in the superhero world than Hawkeye is, but like that book, it's very focused on just going "look how kinda inept and shitty this character is at managing his own life...".

Pretty average first issue, not as good as introductions to Silk and Ms. Marvel. I hope the series going forward can actually live up to the hype.

That hood won't ever stop being a terrible design choice for an otherwise nice design.

Try out Gotham Academy. It's really great. Silk is a no brainer too.
Pssh please the hood makes the whole thing worthwhile.

Spider-Gwen was great. Really excellent start.
Yes. If you love Hawkeye, Ms Marvel, and Spider-Gwen, you will love Ant-Man. Slots in nicely.

The rest of the suit is slim and then bam. Doesn't fit and nor is it functional.
It reminds of those really god awful deviantart Spidey redesigns where he's "sporty"

That art is fucking fantastic, the premise sounds great too. Might have to actually grab my first comic in quite a long time.
Huh? The hood is pretty big part of the look.

Current series by Nick Spencer.
Read Superior Foes of Spider-Man if you haven't read it. Same writer and Ant-Man's first issue has a character from the book. It's excellent.
who cares if it's functional, it looks good
Current one that just started, there's only like one issue out right now. I would recommend checking out Superior Foes that ended recently, it's by the same writer.

complain about costume functionality in comics bruhs.

The functionality isn't really my complaint, just pointing out you can't use that to justify it.
It looks okay when she isn't wearing the mask but this
totally doesn't work.

Thanks for the suggestions! I read one issue of Superior Foes, will definitely read more!
