I do not think that there can ever be enough books about anything and I say that knowing that some of them are going to be about Pilates.The more knowledge the better seems like a solid rule of thumb, even though I have watched enough science fiction films to accept that humanity’s unchecked pursuit of learning will end with robots taking over the world.-Sarah Vowell

Spider-Gwen Vol 4: Predators by Jason Latour (Writer), Hannah Blumenreich (Writer, Artist), Robbi Rodriguez (Artist), Jorge Coelho (Artist), Jordan Gibson (Artist), Rico Renzi (Colorist), Lauren Affe (Colorist), and VC's Clayton Cowles (Letterer)


This comic book covers issues #19-23.  Where we left off Captain George Stacy was in jail for protecting Spider-Gwen and Gwen had made a deal with Matt Murdock, the Kingpin, to get boosters that would enable her to have her powers for short periods of time and he would work on getting her dad out of prison.  For a price. She would have to work for him.  Gwen also injected Harry with the suppressant for the Lizard mutagen in the hopes that it would cure him.

Murdock is pissed at Stacy because he is right where he wants to be--stoking the flames of the press in the hopes of creating a forum for him to clear Spider-Gwen's name because he knows they have nothing on him.  He can't control Stacy and Stacy isn't playing according to his script.

But Murdock still has Gwen.  He has Gwen meet him at Oscorp where Murdock and a scientist of his explain that the isotopes she uses as her powerups can be used to cure Harry of his Lizardness and then turned into a symbiote that could be injected into her and return her powers to her.

Murdock sends Spider-Gwen out to Madripoor where Harry is with the Hand ninjas as back up but doesn't tell her that S.H.I.E.L.D. has sent people to bring Harry back dead or alive so they can dissect him.  Neither Harry nor Spider-Gwen trusts Murdock but his plan could fix both of their problems.  Pretty soon, though, Harry might not have a voice as the Lizard takes over his body.  What should Spider-Gwen do?  Also included is a comic on the Mary Janes. This is a really great comic and shows that Gwen truly does want to be Spider-Gwen and what she is ready to do to be her.  I highly recommend this book.
