Why is Gwen alive?

 

( forgive my ignorance, I don't read moderns )

[slym2none]

Spider-Gwen doesn't take place in the "616" universe.

Of course, but it doesn't mean you won't get an occasional for doing that.

No, she isn't, yet. Secret Wars, anyone?

[Jaydogrules]

Not necessarily. What if-Gwen is not actually in the "Ultimate" universe.

 

This nonsense could remain its own free standing world.

What if... Marvel decided it could do whatever it wanted as long as it would sell comic books? Bringing Spider-Gwen into the main universe probably wouldn't even be the most outlandish thing Marvel had done to its stable. From what I've read about this event, it could open the door to anything.

I don't think so. Bringing What if-Gwen to the main universe would rather negate the appeal and the point of the character, and would be a pointless provocation of purists since they are already evidently bleeding the turnip dry with her where she is already. My 2 cents.

"Walkthru" service probably.

 

When threads like these get answered in the first 5 posts, the thread should automatically close if not it should become a dance thread...

 

Someone say "dance thread"?

'Exclusive First Day Issue Release Label'

 

Sounds too much like First Day Covers in stamp collecting. I wonder what tiny fraction of comic collectors are really interested in that being introduced into our hobby?

To be fair, Spider-Gwen -- even one dropped smack-dab into the main Marvel Universe -- would still probably be, like, only the 27th worst thing Marvel would have done to the Spider-Man character/franchise over the last 30 years or so.

 

Spider-Man's universe has survived (so far): the overexposure/watering down of Venom, terrible character redesigns/reboots (remember the female Doc Ock?, Sandman going back to being a bad guy after his reform? all the Kraven knock-offs after the original's death? Macendale Hobgoblin?) , Norman and Harry coming back from the dead, Spider-Armor (twice), deals with the devil (Marvel-version), marriage-erasing, drawn-out clone sagas, too many symbiotes, the butchering of the Hobgoblin ID reveal, Spider-Totems, Peter choosing to reveal his secret ID, the erasing of said ID reveal after doing very little with the story opportunities (Peter David's run excluded, unresolved plots (Who is Facade? Who was the 5th Green Goblin?), too many Goblins (Demogoblin? Grey Goblin? Menace??), reversing Aunt May's death (and a well-done story in #400), reversing Aunt May's knowledge of his secret (from Straczynski's run), funky spider-metabolism (organic web-shooters, cocoon-births), Peter dying, Doc Ock as Spider-Man, Humberto Ramos' art, Howard Mackie's writing, the completely unnecessary changes in Spider-Man: Year One by Byrne, Sins Past, Sins Past a 2nd time , and umpteen attempts to push Mary Jane out of the picture over the years.

 

Mileage may vary on the list above.

[Ken Aldred]

Yup. After all that you can end up somewhat desensitised and subsequently indifferent when a new project such as Spider-Gwen is announced.

That actually makes Spider-Gwen look genius (thumbs u

[ChrisInBaltimore]

What I find more repulsive in this is that it's bid price is as much as a low grade Hulk 181. Much like I was saying in my other thread..this is an expensive hobby and the cost/value of a modern can be insane. I get that this comic is rare and a 9.8 signed is even rarer, but this should never be valued at the same price as a low grade Hulk 181.

 

The book isn't rare, Lee's sig isn't rare, and the fact that CGC is slabbing these books with the "signed on release date" notation is absurd. Produce a more manufactured collectible, you can't.

 

Isn't it rare simply for the fact it is first to market? The seller is just capitalizing.
