Before SpiderMan Kingpin’s Enemy Was… Gwen Stacy

Gwen Stacy is set to go toe-to-toe with one of Marvel’s most dangerous villains. However, the story takes place before Gwen met Spider-Man and before Wilson Fisk became the Kingpin we know today.

The five-issue Gwen Stacy miniseries fills in the blanks of Gwen Stacy’s origins before she met Peter Parker. The series focuses on Gwen’s time in high school, her friendship with Harry Osborn, and her dad captain George Stacy being implicated for murder. Along the way, she encounters a handful of familiar Spider-Man characters including the Green Goblin, Crimemaster, and Wilson Fisk – before he was fully known as the Kingpin. Gwen will also run into the original X-Men as Green Goblin crashes one of her high school events.

While people might be familiar with a different version of Gwen facing off against the Kingpin in the incredible Into The Spider-Verse film, the new series focuses on the original Earth-616 version of Gwen. In Gwen Stacy #5 by Christos Gage, Todd Nauck, and Miguel Mercado, Gwen will continue to investigate her father being framed for murder, despite being advised against it. As she tracks down what happened in the case, she will end up running into Fisk – described as “a man of rising importance in the NYC criminal underworld.” Given the criminal nature of Stacy’s investigation, it’s not all that surprising Fisk is connected. Framing George Stacy for murder would keep him off the streets and allow Fisk to grow his empire without intrusion from Gwen’s father. It’s not unfair to assume Kingpin is pulling the strings in the frame-job.

The series has done an excellent job showing Gwen’s fight, which makes her such a beloved character in the Marvel Universe. While Spider-Gwen might be a more popular version of the character currently, there’s something inherently special about the original Gwen. She won’t let anyone get in her way, even the most dangerous people in New York City. It’s that kind of never-give-up attitude that will help Gwen Stacy clear her father’s name. She’s much more than Spider-Man’s former girlfriend. Check out the preview for the series below along with cover art by Mercado.
