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: Ghost Spider: S[ider-Aeddon by Seanon MxGuire (Writer(, Risi Kampe (Artist), Takeshi Miyazawa (Artist), Ian Herring (Colorist). VC's Clayton Cowles (Lettterer)



Gwen is now out of jail having served her time for the crimes she committed.   Everyone may know who she is but that’s okay because she's getting over things like that.  She's out catching muggers and such now and trying to hop a free dinner off her friend Harry when she sees the signal by Spider-Ham that he needs her so she goes.  Spider-Ham tells her a vampiric race of people who live off of Spider-People called Inheritors.  They've already gotten a head start on taking out the Spider-People and Spider-Ham and the rest have formed a resistance and they need her help;  But when she uses her bracelet to travel to the other diminution where the other is located, her bracelet messes up and sends her to a dimension she's never been.

The first rule of interdimensional travel is to find a Reed Richards on that Earth to help you.  But a Tony Stark will do. But on this planet, Oscorp was the ruler of things scientific.  Until she goes to the building and sees how run down it is. Then she is out to her friends;  

The next section of the comic deals with some of the ghosts haunting Gwen.  Ghosts of those who died in Spider-verse Part I and II;  In this section, she chooses to be the one to go back to all the worlds that lost someone and offer condolences and their bodies if they want them.  It's poignant and beautiful.  And at the end, Gwen will decide what to do.

My only complaint about this book is that it is too short. And while the second part is lovely, not much happens. Still, it was a great comic and I can’t wait to try out Ghost-Spider Vol 2. I give this book four out of five stars.
