Positives. I love how dynamic and colourful the art style is and Gwen's look is iconic. The writing was really good too, especially the jokes! I found myself laughing out loud at multiple points. The alternative universes are very well-developed and every change from the 'original' universe has a purpose. Gwen's growth as a person and superhero (a superhero person if you will) was tied up nicely in the end and I got a good sense of the other important characters in the story.
Negatives. I don't like the half-sketch lineart style of modern Marvel. I understand that it saves a lot of time, money and effort but either fully lean into stylistic sketchlines or line your art, cowards! It feels sloppy to me.

I've always found Marvel content difficult to break into, with so many cameos and characters and references to decades of content I've simply never read, and this book was no exception. but overall I think they balanced Gwen's character arc well with all of that.
A good exploration of guilt and grief, and the art was phenomenal

eu adorei!!!!!
talvez a escolha de 4 estrelas seja porque eu tô muito feliz de finalmente ler uma história sobre a gwen? talvez! mas mesmo assim, achei a história bem legal por ser um início e já ter tanto personagem envolvido (amei)
me perdi um pouco com as ~referências~ mas não deixei de aproveitar, teve até o peter porker sério SENSACIONAL!

I'm not 100% what happened in this book or if it could even be called pacing but I do know I enjoyed it.

I feel like this collection is missing some context (as in, are there issues that might've made her story flow better?), but whatever, I still really liked it. Gwen Stacy as Spider-Woman is a cool idea and I love the art. Will definitely grab the next before too long.

« Parfois les gens ne sont pas comme tu t’en souviens. Les vraies gens, les vraies vies, ont parfois des défauts. Parfois, ils sont faibles. Parfois ils sont forts. Même les héros. »
Okay, il fallait bien que je lise ce comic après avoir adoré Gwen dans Spider-verse. Et bah je peux vous dire que je l’adore encore plus suite à ce comics. Gwen est vraiment un personnage tiraillé entre Gwen et Spider-Woman. Elle essaye de faire de son mieux, mais s’éloigne de tout le monde à cause de la culpabilité qu’elle ressent envers Peter et sa mort. Et cela même après les évènement de spider-verse. Elle essaye de fuir la police, aider son père et le protéger, rattraper ses erreurs, essayer de reprendre une vie… mais tout la dépasse. Et son évolution au cours du récit est intéressante.
Je l’ai vraiment aimé et le plus ses interactions avec les autres personnages. Que ce soit les Parker, Harry Osborn qui lui aussi s’en veut pour la mort de Peter et qui en veut à spider-woman, son père, ses amies, Felicia, Jess et meme captain America.
J’ai aussi beaucoup aimé découvrir Castle et Murdock de cet univers. Non parce que Matt??? I have to Stan. Anyway. Je lirais clairement la suite
« Parce que je ne suis pas flic. Et je ne suis pas un soldat. Je ne veux pas te combattre. No te voir mort, disséqué, ou dans une cellule décrépie »
