Spider-Woman is in the middle of a very fun, unconventional storyline right now, which centers on the pregnancy of its lead character. And the series’ charms are greatly increased by the excellent art on its pages.
Spoilers follow.
The art team on Spider-Woman consists of penciller Javier Rodriguez, inker Alvaro Lopez, color artist Rachelle Rosenberg and letterer Travis Lanham. Together, they skillfully hit the challenging mixture of tonalities that writer Dennis Hopeless is offering on the book. There’s creepy alien weirdness...
eye-catching action...
and sharp interpersonal tension.
As seen in Spider-Woman #3, the inventive layouts, fantastic shading and colorwork and intense camera angles make everything sing in this series. Very fine sequential storytelling happening here.
