Update: Spider-Girl has officially been cancelled, i.e. it will not be renewed after issue #100. But it has been officially cancelled before and then resuscitated due to fan support. Please, if you buy comics, start buying this title. The last issue does not come out until August. We still have amonth or so before they can change their minds without a significant publishing disruption. Increased sales figures are Spider-Girl's best hope. (Current sales figures are going down fast).
Spider-Girl, one of my favorite comics, may be in danger of cancellation at issue 100 if sales do not pick up.
I seriously encourage Glaivester readers who like comic books to buy one at the local comic store, or if you subscribe to comics, to consider subscribing to Spider-Girl. (You can subscribe at Marvel's subscription site).
Spider-Girl is the only current regular title set in the "MC-2" universe, an alternate version of the Marvel Universe about 15-20 years ahead of the mainstream Marvel Universe (also known as the "616" universe, reportedly named because the first issue of Fantastic Four came out in June '61).
In the MC-2, Spider-Girl, aka May "MayDay" Parker, is the daughter of Peter Parker, the original Spider-Man, and Mary Jane Watson. She has a lot of her father's powers (although some are at a lower or higher level than dead old dad's), and some of her own.
I don't know what else to say. Buy it. Oh, and New Excalibur is also good, and features Her Sexy Blueness. But that is a post for another time.
That is all.
