Before she met Spidey, Gwen Stacy’s no-quit attitude and nose for trouble was already landing her in dangerous situations. See what happens when she runs afoul of villains like Crime Master, Kingpin, and even the Green Goblin. If it sounds like Gwen bit off more than she can chew, don’t worry— she’ll he’ll have superhero help in May’s GWEN STACY #4 when she teams up with the Silver Age’s strangest teens, the original X-Men!
The amazing adventures of Gwen Stacy kick off next week when Christos Gage and Todd Nauck’s GWEN STACY #1 hits stands! In her first ever-series, readers will learn the never-before told origin of one of Marvel’s most beloved characters.
Heres a look at some of Todd Nauck’s art from issue #1 of the upcoming series:
In an interview on Marvel.com Gage promised easter eggs galore:
There will be easter eggs galore. Ralph Macchio, who has been at Marvel since the ’70s, is a consulting editor on this, and I’ve been reading Marvel comics for 40 “years, so between us we’re covering that ground pretty thoroughly. And Todd Nauck, who’s drawing this, is a super fan too. So, our approach has been that if I can put in an easter egg that longtime fans might catch, but a new reader won’t lose out on anything by not knowing it, we’ll do it. It doesn’t have to be a Spidey reference; there’s a scene where characters are talking about going to the movies and I had them mention the Gem Theater, above which Luke Cage will one day have his office. It’s an offhand comment, but sharp-eyed readers may catch it. So I’m not messing around here, I’m all in! Then, of course, there are the characters who haven’t been around in a long time but who are perfect to use in this, like Frederick Foswell, the former criminal Big Man-turned-reformed, crusading reporter for the Daily Bugle. So, yeah… easter egg hunters will have a lot to look for.”
