Ghost-Spider is a 2019 comic book series written by Seanan McGuire and drawn by Takeshi Miyazawa, starring the Earth-65 version of Gwen Stacy.Gwen has been facing more than a few problems, as is par for the course for any Spider, no matter the dimension. In her case, it's that revealing her secret identity well over a year ago means that even doing something as simple as attending college is now a struggle, to say nothing of how villains can more directly attack her friends and father. Oh, and her symbiote has been acting up for no discernible reason, and the person who developed it is currently missing. So yeah, Gwendolyn Maxine Stacy has some issues she needs to work out. Thankfully, with the help of an interdimensional travel device that yet another alternate version of herself cooked up, she has plenty of options.Following the events of the Spider-Geddon crossover and the ten-issue Spider-Gwen: Ghost Spider series, Ghost-Spider sees Gwen commuting between Earth-616 and her home dimension to attend the former's Empire State University. Now she must juggle life in a world where she's technically dead with her double life as a superhero, all while facing the challenge of now being one of many, many crimefighters in a Shared Universe, rather than one of the few in a more isolated one.After a tie-in for King in Black, Gwen's story would be picked up in Spider-Gwen: Gwenverse by Tim Seeley and Jodi Nishijima.

Sequel Series: The series is a direct continuation of Spider-Gwen: Ghost-Spider, taking place immediately after that comic's last issue and sharing the same creative team of writer McGuire and artist Miyazawa. McGuire even recommends that you read that before beginning this series.

Appropriated Title
 Ghost-Spider (2019) (Comic Book) / int_1fe4ca78
comment
Appropriated Title: The comic completely eschews the iconic Spider-Gwen name and is simply called Ghost-Spider. Justified in-universe, as Earth-616 already has a "Spider-Woman", she needed a new alias, and there was no way she was giving up the ability to have a secret identity again.

Downer Ending: The series ends with Gwen being forced to leave Earth-65 to live on Earth-616 for the foreseeable future. On the plus side, this means she'll more likely have guest appearances in the main continuity more often.

Understatement: Many years in the past (before Gwen got her powers) the siblings Johnny and Sue Storm got lost in Latveria, a country in Ruritania ruled by the dictator Victor Von Doom. Gwen asked her father, a mere cop, to do something about it. "I'm sorry, sweetheart. Latveria is a little outside my jurisdiction".

Covers Always Lie: The cover to issue 1 (and used as the cover of the first trade paperback) pictured above shows Miles Morales wearing headphones. Miles Morales does not appear in the series at all. This may be a an intentional misdirection as a different Miles, Miles Warren a.k.a. the Jackal, does appear in this issue and is a major antagonist of the first story arc.

Fish out of Water: Gwen is an immigrant from another dimension, and the issue of her not having any legal citizenship status in the 616 universe is brought up. However, the 616 universe is no stranger to aliens, gods, or time/dimension-displaced refugees. Empire State University has scholarship programs set up for people like Gwen. That being said, Peter advises Gwen to brush up on her pop culture knowledge while in 616, due to the differences in media between dimensions.
