SPIDER-WOMAN #1

Launching as part of Spider-Woman's fiftieth anniversary, this new series sends Jessica Drew into her darkest storyline to date. Enemies she believed dead return, unexplained events accumulate around her, and a barely contained Carnage threatens to break loose at any moment. The anniversary framing quickly gives way to a horror-tinged thriller built around a character who has spent five decades on the margins of the Spider-Man mythos. The first issue is written as an entry point, establishing Drew's situation and supporting cast without assuming prior knowledge of her long publication history.
