Gwenpool Strikes Back, a new five-issue limited series by Leah Williams and David Baldeon, hits stores next week from Marvel. And this preview of Gwenpool Strikes Back #1 comes out of the gate swinging…
…with Gwenpool expressing the desire to squeeze pregnant women, and surprised to find herself in a solo series again.
Gwenpool works out what’s going on in this comic along with the reader, also providing some helpful exposition.
And she makes an effort to distinguish herself from Marvel characters she’s frequently mistaken for.
And does this mean Gwenpool is no longer a member of the West Coast Avengers? Well, they probably wouldn’t look too kindly on bank robbery.
Spider-Man apparently doesn’t take too kindly to it either.
Where will this go next? You’ll need to pick up Gwenpool Strikes Back #1 next Wednesday to find out… but as we’ve been told, don’t trust the solicit.

Gwen Poole is desperate not to disappear into comic book limbo, so she’s going to make an impact on the Marvel Universe! First up: Unmask Spider-Man! And heck, maybe see if she can get some real super-powers while she’s at it!
