On Earth-65, the radioactive spider didn't bite Peter Parker - it bit Gwen Stacy! Now, Gwen fights crime as Spider-Woman - just don't tell her father, the police chief! In the wake of SPIDER-VERSE, Gwen splits her time between school, heroism and playing in her band, the Mary Janes, while dodging NYPD lieutenant Frank Castle! But what really happened the night her world's Peter Parker died, and how does it connect to a new reptilian rampage? Gwen's troubles pile up as her world's Osborns debut and she finds herself on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s most wanted list! Can a team-up between Gwen, Silk and Jessica Drew - the Spider-Woman of the prime Marvel Universe - help Gwen learn lessons about power and responsibility? Collecting EDGE OF SPIDER-VERSE (2014) #2, SPIDER-GWEN (2015A) #1-5, SPIDER-GWEN (2015B) #1-8, SPIDER-WOMEN ALPHA, SILK (2015B) #7-8, SPIDER-WOMAN (2015) #6-7 and SPIDER-WOMEN OMEGA.
Jason Latour’s kinetic brand of art has appeared in Marvel titles including Daredevil: Black and White, I Am an Avenger, Wolverine and Captain America. He illustrated the noir graphic novel Noche Roja from Vertigo, as well as B.P.R.D. Hell on Earth: The Pickens County Horror from Dark Horse, and collaborated with Jason Aaron on Scalped. Latour also drew the comic-book adaptation of Quentin Tarantino’s Django Unchained. His parallel writing career began with the creator-owned Loose Ends and continued with stories in the Marvel series Untold Tales of Punisher MAX and A+X. Latour stepped into Ed Brubaker’s shoes to continue the adventures of Winter Soldier and took on Wolverine and the X-Men. His introduction of Spider-Gwen during the Spider-Verse event resulted in a smash-hit spin-off series.

Artist Robbi Rodriguez made his debut in 2005 on Image Comics' Hero Camp, later illustrating such Image titles as Night Club, 24Seven and Hazed. Subsequent credits include Stephen Colbert's Tek Jansen and the Harvey Award-nominated Maintenance, both published by Oni Press. His early Marvel contributions included issues of titles such as New Mutants and Wolverine and the X-Men before he wowed readers with Spider-Gwen.
