Her death is the most heart-wrenching moment in comic book history. Her return will be the most outrageous! Teased last week, prepare for the unthinkable with the resurrection of GWEN STACY!

The mad men responsible are New York Times bestselling author Cavan Scott (STAR WARS: THE HIGH REPUBLIC) and rising star artist Stefano Nesi, who will bring back Spider-Man's first love as a coldblooded killer this May in a new GWENPOOL series!

Gwen Stacy returns as the darker, deadlier, and even more unhinged GWENPOOL, and who better to help Spidey navigate this soul-crushing revelation than the medium-shattering, attention-seeking Marvel Comics superfan that is the original Gwenpool!

It’s a wild team-up as the pair race to solve this unhinged mystery before it’s too late

—because Gwendolye Poole knows better than anyone that there’s definitely not enough page time for two Gwenpools!

GWENPOOL IS BACK AND MORE DANGEROUS THAN EVER!

Everyone’s favorite reality-twister’s life is changing. A grittier doppelganger is bringing her own brand of hyper-violent justice to a battle-strewn NYC! Who is this dark Gwenpool? And what does she want with the Amazing Spider-Man? Kate Bishop and Jeff the Land Shark guest-star in a comic series that will shock you to your core!

On the bold decision to resurrect Gwen, Scott said, "What an absolute honor! To tear both Gwenpool AND Spider-Man's worlds apart? Yes please! Gwen Stacy is back from the grave and deadlier than ever. Weapon-X style abilities? Check. A line in killer put-downs? You've got it.

"This is NOT the Gwen you remember. But just who is behind her miraculous resurrection? And what has happened to the original Gwenpool's usually careful existence? Add Kate Bishop and Jeff the Land Shark to the mix and you have the Marvel series of my dreams!"

The series marks the Marvel Comics debut of artist Stefano Nesi, known for his acclaimed recent work on Batman.

"I couldn't ask for a better partner than Stefano Nesi on art!" Scott continued. "Mega-violence has never been so much fun, each frenzied attack brought to dark, brooding life by Matt Milla's blistering colors. Monsters, mayhem and murder await as Spider-Man and Kate learn that nothing—or no one—is sacred!"

Chad Hardin and Greg Land’s covers for the first issue reveal the new Gwenpool in action while artist Jeehyung Lee delivers a stunning depiction of the beloved classic Gwenpool. In addition, Paco Medina’s foreboding promotional artwork of Gwen’s grave will also be available as a GWENPOOL #1 variant cover.
