Setup & reading order
- After Superior Spider-Man #32–33 and Edge of Spider-Verse #2 in their planned omnibuses
Read Amazing Spider-Man (2014) #9–15 before the post-Secret Wars Gwen series. The timeline cannot split those large character collections, so this checkpoint controls the event switch.
- After The post-Secret Wars Spider-Gwen series and Miles’s Bendis finale
Read Spider-Geddon #0–5 and its Vault of Spiders setup alongside Spider-Gwen: Ghost-Spider #1–4, then continue Ghost-Spider from #5.
Optional context & path
Path: Spider-Verse events. Related projects that read well in this order; the order is a suggestion, not a requirement.
Useful background and earlier stops: Spider-Gwen by Jason Latour.
Only required setup and earlier volumes in the same project affect the queue. Everything here is optional.
