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.
