In this episode, Brian and Jack take a break from the “Predators” arc and check out a night in the life of Spider-Gwen’s band The Mary Janes, as they take the spotlight in Spider-Gwen #23!

• 0:00 – Intro
• 2:08 – Spider-Gwen #23 – GWENOM has arrived! So it’s a perfect time to switch gears for a story about Gwen’s band. Fortunately, the change of pace (and creative team!) manages to be all kinds of awesome. A fresh take highlights the trickier parts of friendship, dealing with “nice guys”, and finishes loud, proud, and strong.
