    Well, the upside is that her story is still continuing, and it does free Tom DeFalco to work on other things. I liked Kid Colt in the past, it'll be interesting to see what DeFalco does with him. I would like to see Ron Frenz work with someone else, though.

    It's kind of a shame that it got canceled right as the book got somewhat good. But you can't go 20 mediocre issues with crappy sales and expect to stay around. The original Spider-Girl was a lot better in terms of quality.

    But ASG just dragged things out and had boring subplots, and made May look like a broken housewife with her attitude towards Gene until she finally got a backbone. I hated that.

    Well, that's certainly one opinion. Personally, I've liked ASG a lot more than any of the other Spider-verse books on the market.

    He's pretty much DeFalco's personal penciler.

    Boy, I'd love to see a Black Knight series, the medieval Black Knight, that is. And a Viking Prince series also.

    I would loved to see Tom work with Thunderstrike again, I mean that would just be some story in the light of Thor's return.

    Just to nitpick, this...

    "the longest running female-driven series in the company’s history"

    ...is incorrect. Millie the Model ran for 207 issues from 1945 to 1973.

    Or "Longest running series starring a female character that is the offspring of an established Marvel hero that takes place in an alternate timeline/ future."

    Y'know, if you want to be specific....
