About the Book

The Marvel-Verse is full of danger for Spider-Gwen! What if Gwen Stacy was bitten by the radioactive spider, not Peter Parker? Find out on Earth-65! There, Gwen is the spectacularly misunderstood Spider-Woman - and she's wanted for Peter's death! And that's bad news, especially since Gwen's dad is a cop! When a Lizard-like menace runs amok, it brings back painful memories for Gwen - but will Captain America's mighty shield inflict new ones? Web-slinging doesn't leave much time for Gwen to play drums with her band, the Mary Janes - but when she does, they rock hard! And their rivals, Felicia Hardy and the Black Cats, are about to find out just how hard! Then, on Halloween, the Mary Janes share a night to remember - courtesy of Mysterio!
