The disparate threads of this comic finally come together as the series approaches its climax, and it's all very satisfying. ( )

After saving Harry Osbourn, Gwen is left with the consequences: Venom. As she grapples with whether revenge is the right course for everything that's happened with her Dad, Matt Murdock is still convinced everything will turn out precisely how we wants it.

Such an excellent volume! Gwenom is a fascinating take on Spider-Gwen, everything in the plot is coming to a major head, and the developments in the final issue of this volume has me super eager to finish the Spider-Gwen story arc. ( )

Previously, Murdoch has Captain Stacy arrested but that's just where he wants to be because from jail he is fanning the flames of the press to clear Spider-Gwen's name which is pissing Murdoch off. But he still has Gwen and he tells her that the powerups he gives her can be used to cure Harry's Lizard DNA and turned into a symbiote that will return her powers. He sends her to Madripoor where Harry is but doesn't tell her that Agents Wolverine and Kitty Pryde of S.H.I.E.L.D. are there to bring Harry in dead or alive in order to dissect him. When Harry goes Lizard things go out of control. Meanwhile, Rhino has beat up badly Captain Stacy on Murdoch's orders.

Her radioactive powerups tear through Harry's DNA and Venom is born first taking over Wolverine. Kitty and Gwen phase through Wolverine pulling the Venom out of Wolverine. Gwen knows that noise affects it and begins to play music. But it only works if it has taken over someone first and Gwen becomes Venom and threatens Murdoch's life until he tells her of her dad's situation and she goes to his side which is a trap Murdoch set up to catch her, but she gets away.

Meanwhile, her friends and Uncle Ben and Aunt Mae are out looking for her because she has been missing for a while. She reveals herself to them and explains what has been going on. Including that Frank Castle has killed the Rhino in order to get her help in going after Murdoch. Uncle "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility," Ben says that she needs to take Murdoch down and kill him. There is something off with this world when evil Cindi Moon is the one making the most sense in telling her to not let Murdoch have power over her by giving into vengeance.

This was a great comic that had a lot of great characters in it including a cameo by Captain America and the Watchers who provided some comic relief. In this case, Gwen knows about Venom and how to fight Venom but finds that that's harder than it seems. This was a cool story with a new twist on the Venom story. I give it five out of five stars. ( )
