Spider-Woman #7Erica Gives This Comic Four StarsComic book review for Marvel’s Spider-Woman #7 by Brian Michael Bendis

I really need to stop telling people which comic books I like. Because similarly to my favorite characters being killed on TV, my favorite comic books seem to bite the dust quickly when I announce to the world how much I love them. Goodbye, Spider-Woman.

It was canceled at issue #7, which means I still have 1 issue left with Marvel. (I’ll be getting the new Black Widow comic.) Doomed, I tell you. Continue reading “Reviews Spider-Woman (Vol 4) #7”

Now I’m not saying we have to ditch the ionic characters, but it’s time to see other characters stepping up and becoming icons themselves.
