Spider-Gwen: Gwenom Review



Finished reading Spider-Gwen: Gwenom, continuing the series of Marvel's Earth-65 as Gwen finds herself dealing with this universe's version of Venom which makes her life even more complicated. The book opens shortly after Gwen along with the help of this universe's version of Wolverine and Shadowcat have been able to cured Harry Osborn of being the Lizard which lead to the creation of a version of Venom that bonds with Logan casing him to go on a rampage. Once Gwen and Shadowcat are able to catch up and separate Logan from Venom it lashes on to and bonds with Gwen leading to Matt Murdock showing up with Gwen's interdimensional teleported to show Gwen the current state her father is in. Once back in New York Gwen shifts her focus onto finding Rhino to get revenge for her father, meanwhile the band members of the Mary Janes try to search for their friend along with the help of May and Ben Parker due to Gwen now showing up for some time as she has been Spider-Woman nonstop. Overall this was a great book as writer Jason Latour continues the series with Gwen dealing with a version of Venom that leads to some great storytelling thanks to the way that it effects her and the book's supporting cast. The addition of Matt Murdock's origin within the book is great as it provides an interesting backstory to the character that has some great twist the the main universe's version. The art throughout the book is great as the design of Gwenom looks extremely foreboding in places thanks to the way that the book has a sift in a slightly darker tone in the way that Venom effects Gwen. Along with the art doing great job in bringing to life each character's emotions that has a great effect on the story. 8/10.
