Whereas Edge of Spider-Verse #2 explored what would happen if Gwen Stacy acquired the powers of Spider-Man, the original female wall-crawler returns with a new Marvel series envisioned by writer Dennis Hopeless and artist Greg Land.
Jessica Drew has been many things – agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., agent of S.W.O.R.D., Avenger and so much more. She’s a hero to her very core, but nothing could prepare her for the multidimensional insanity of Spider-Verse! War has come to anyone with spider powers and they’re being picked off one by one. The supremely powerful Morlun and his twisted family will stop at nothing to eliminate every Spider-Man and every Spider-Woman in every universe.
The key to their survival may rest in the hands of Silk, the newest spider on the block, who’s on the run for her life! Who better to keep her safe than Jessica Drew? An experienced soldier, a fierce combatant, and someone who won’t quit – she’ll lead her spider platoon deep behind enemy lines on a dangerous, universe-spanning adventure if she wants to see tomorrow.
“This is the start of something very big for Spider-Woman,” stated Senior Editor Nick Lowe. “Yes, it’s a big part of Spider-Verse, but this is going to be a character defining first arc for the Spider-Woman ongoing series.”
Spider-Woman #1 goes on sale November 19, 2014.
