Review: Spider-Gwen #16

Posted on by

spidergwen16coverIn Spider-Gwen #16, Miles Morales learns that there are many differences between Earth-65 and his home Earth-like sodas using real sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup and that  Daredevil is evil and has an army of ninjas. (Thank goodness he was in the Ultimate Universe for Shadowland, or Miles would’ve gotten some bad flashbacks.) He’s still  too young to get into clubs on most worlds in the multiverse, but this doesn’t prevent him from having a little team-up fun with Spider-Gwen in this bouncy second chapter of the “Sittin’ in a Tree” crossover where writer Jason Latour focuses on building the relationship between the two young heroes instead of skipping straight to the smooching like Brian Michael Bendis did in Spider-Man.

Miles Morales is a great fit for Robbi Rodriguez and Rico Renzi‘s brighter, animation-meets cool indie band poster art style. The red and black adds some new hues to Renzi’s usual pink, green, and white world, and Latour writes Miles as completely out of his element the whole time. He’s freaking out about being in an alternative universe while simultaneously freaking about his dad going missing while on a mission for SHIELD. This is why he sounds like he’s hopped up on caffeine and fear, and where Gwen comes in with some much-needed empathy. They bond over their love for their dads, their superhero lives, and the weirdness of other worlds with Rodriguez’s full page spread of them hugging showing how much they’ve already bonded.

The colors and art pop even more once Spider-Gwen hits the Scorpion Club, and this leads to the spidergwen16interiorfunniest joke in the issue, which is 16-year-old Miles being left behind. He has a superhero costume, but no fake ID. The short fight scene inside the club featuring Earth 65’s Dr. Octopus is weird, yet fun and shows off Miles’ “other” powers, like venom stings and invisibility, as well as the fact that he has yet to be able to rattle off one-liners in battle like Earth 616’s Peter Parker. Renzi uses a lot of flashing yellows for the club fight scene to show characters getting their “lights knocked out”, or just how disorienting this environment is for both Gwen and Miles. And then the cliffhanger blows their minds even more.

The parts of Spider-Gwen #16 that resonated with me were when Gwen and Miles were becoming friends in an organic way. Because she keeps her secret identity from her bandmates in the Mary Janes and her dad is in jail, Gwen doesn’t really have anyone to talk to about her life as a superhero. Now, she has Miles, and they talk about how Earth-65 is like a sad pop song, and how it’s okay to be afraid even though they’re superheroes. (And is kind of visually designed that way.) Gwen is in a dark situation where the source of her superpowers is controlled by the Kingpin so it’s nice to have Miles pop up and bring some light and empathy to her comic even though his dad is in a terrible situation.

With its focus on building a connection between Miles and Gwen instead of multiverses and annoying supervillains, Spider-Gwen #16 is superior to the opening chapter of the “Sittin’ in a Tree” crossover. The final night club scene also ups the intrigue as Robbi Rodriguez and Rico Renzi continue to (web) sling out the cool visuals.

Review: Spider-Gwen #13

Posted on by

spider-gwen-13-cover*Warning Spoilers Below*

Spider-Gwen #13 is nothing like what you would expect after the issues leading up to it. Jason Latour doesn’t try to fill in any of the blanks that we needed filled after the first 12 episodes in this issue of Spider-Gwen. We start out with a nice flashback giving us the rundown of the story so far and then heads straight into the meat of the story. We find Gwen and friends trick or treating and the teenagers not so inner

We start out with a nice flashback giving us the rundown of the story so far and then heads straight into the meat of the story.  We find Gwen and friends trick or treating and the teenagers not so inner monologue lets us know exactly where Gwen’s friends stand. Mary Jane is still certain that Gwen is Spider-Woman and that’s why her dad is in prison. The other girls in the group are not so sure about her theory and this issue kicks off with us wondering what they’re going to discover on this night out.

The girls, dressed as superheroes, set out on a trick or treat adventure hitting up some scary spots on their route.When the girls find themselves in a pretty sticky situation, complete with gravestones for Gwen’s Dad, Peter Parker, Harry Osbourne, Aunt Mae and Uncle Ben, they know something is not right . Mary Jane tries to get Gwen to use her powers to climb out of the hell hole they’re in and get help but, Gwen can’t even if she wanted to because she’s all out of juice.

The comic quickly evolves into all of Gwen’s worst nightmares and she comes face to face with herself. The rest of the girls are caught up in a rave from hell where dancing is the only way to stay alive and not have their souls eaten by the darkness that has them trapped. They finally realize that they’re not seeing what they think they’re seeing and someone or something is playing with their mind they decide to fight back. There’s an unmasking that leads to more unmasking that leads to more questions and then with the spirit of Ghost Rider channeled the girls break free.

This issue isn’t a continuation of the story or even some big baddies trying to get at Gwen, it’s a Halloween special. Nothing about this issue adds anything integral to the arc at hand. It’s only purpose is to provide a diversion from the seriousness of the current arc. Robbi Rodriguez‘s art work serves up some vintage 80’s horror comic book graphics complete with Rico Renzi giving us a muted color palette to seal the deal.

Overall, as a stand alone it’s a decent read but, if you’re reading through it trying to find out what’s coming next or to connect to what happened before you will find yourself disappointed. The issue isn’t a bad one, it’s just kind of out of place in the arc and that serves up some problems in the continuity. There are no long-term repercussions for Gwen, other than facing her fear and we are never really sure if any of this is actually happening or if this is just a dream.

With all the questions in my head from the previous episode, I was looking forward to having them answered and seeing how Gwen’s new alliances and foes worked out. I felt a bit cheated. That’s not to say this is a bad issue just to say that it would have been better as a one off or special edition so that the reader would know what they were getting into. It was more about Gwen’s friends and less about Gwen herself or the struggle that Spider-Gwen is dealing with outside of this issue.
