    Spider-Gwen #1 also included the easiest possible cosplay/fan-outfit idea

    At the start of the book there is a trio of Spider-Woman fans spraypainting over one of Jameson's billboards, all wearing white hoodies
    with "YSG" spraypainted on the back

    they're even chased by "Officer Grimm"

    Shower thoughts with Weaver

    So in the first Cap movie, Red Skull keeps calling Zola "Mister Doctor".

    Maybe Zola is actually a "Hair Doctor"?

    Pretty sure the only reason the new serial is even titled Spider-Gwen is because that's what literally everyone started calling her on their own.

    Between her, Captain Marvel, Miss Marvel, and the new Squirrel Girl (all of whom had cosplays by the dozen at the last few cons I've been to) the Marvel feminist hype is pretty real

    Well, they're masked vigilantes running around New York. I imagine gloves and shoes helps with fingerprints and tetanus.

    So I've decided the Ant-Man stinger needs to be Pym and Lang walking down the streets of NYC arguing over the name and Lang is just like, "Look, nobody's going to take a bug-themed hero seriously!" and Pym's like "what makes you say that?" and Lang just picks up a paper from a newsstand or whatever and it's a copy of the Daily Bugle and a photo of Spider-Man on the front with a very typically-JJJ headline.

    I actually had a moment a few weeks back where I was thinking about wanting to do some sort of costume for ECCC, but had some trouble coming up with options because most of my favourite superheroes/most of the best new costumes these days are women.

    it was an odd feeling, not being the sole audience being catered to, but it's a feeling that's long overdue

    That said, I'm totally going to ECCC as a member of the Spider-Gwen Yancy Street Gang.

    What does Spider-Gwen's primary costume look like? I'm going to Kami-con in Birmingham this weekend as a vendor but I'll have a lot of free time to browse. I'll see if I spot any cosplayers of her.

    disagree, the fan name is amazing, and is an entirely appropriate nod to the fact that this book only exists because of fan support for the character

    It's a fan name that distinguishes this character from all other ones. How do you see it being confusing?

  • KyouguKyougu Registered User regular
    Spider-Gwen fits perfectly with the feeling of the book.

    It's a fun, modern name. I really dig it, and honestly I think if a random person saw it on the rack they would flip through it because of the name.

    And that costume. Man, one of the best in years.

  • GoatmonGoatmon Companion of Kess Registered User regular
    I seriously cannot get enough of that costume.

    Thanks, I'll be with the guy who sells posters and comics along with swords if the con allows that. Pretty sure we're the only dealer of that kind there.

    The story revolves around Elsa serving as the one-woman barrier to the Zombies (being held back by the wall) on the Southern end of Battleworld when one day she sees an unzombified human girl running for her life in the No Man's Land so going against every instinct she has she crosses the barrier and saves the girl, only now they are stuck in the Zombie's turf and have to fight their way back out.
    We-ell…. like most stories which purport to be structured round a single journey, there are actually two of them going on side by side. The first and most obvious one is really simple, revolving around this incredible, relentless, fascinating woman – Elsa – trying to cross a wasteland full of indescribable horrors, while protecting a vulnerable young companion. This is the part of the journey packed with festering, corrupted, undead versions of your favourite Marvel characters, in whose rheumy eyes Elsa and her young charge are just a convenient moveable snack. Into this portion of the journey we’re throwing putrid wads of horror, incredible action and some really creative evil. I’m actually rather proud of some of the inventive nastiness I’ve got planned.

    The second journey, which is a lot less visible, is going on all the time inside Elsa’s mind and heart. One of our quite explicit aims here is to remind everyone what a wonderful and unique character she is. Beneath the über-capable, sarcasm-spouting, unflappable kickass exterior lies a lot of really unique and harrowing stuff. To get at it we’re going to peer into her troubled past and spend a little memory-time in the company of Mr Ulysses Bloodstone: adventurer; monster hunter; crappy dad.

    The really fun stuff, for me, is where Journey #1 and Journey #2 intersect: where the external impinges on the internal and vice-versa. That sort of stuff is driven in no small part by the little girl Elsa’s trying to save, who – in all her terror and confusion – sets the pace, tone and destination of our adventure.

    Some new Josh Trank Fantastic Four quotes

    Some of it's good, like why he cast Michael B. Jordan, but then you get into stuff like
    There’s the opportunity to make something that is challenging and tragic and dramatic. The opportunity is right there in the material. We’d rather steer it in that direction as opposed to just embracing a tone that comes right off the page.
    The tone is one of the best parts about that series

    The Marvel Zombies virus/curse/whatever it is was able to infect everyone and everything including immortal gods, robots and more so I wouldn't be surprised that symbiotes count
