Greetings. I am Uatu the Watcher. You may be familiar with a world where Peter Parker was bitten by a radioactive spider and became the superhero known as Spider-Man...but fate is more fickle than you realize. And all it takes to throw events into a new, unforseen direction is for the spider to move a few inches to the left...and instead descend upon Peter Parker's friend, Gwen Stacy.

What do you think might happen as a result? Let us discover the answer together!

***

A collection of ideas, writing, and artwork about an alternate Marvel universe where Gwen Stacy becomes Spider-Woman. Among other things, an eight-issue limited series is currently in the works, written in ensemble by /co/ and organized/developed by me.

Yeah, I can see why JJJ may not fit. I originally chose him for the fun comedy option but now I'm thinking about someone else who might fit better. Having finally watched some Spectacular, Tombstone MAY fit that role, but part of me wants some unexpected, yet logical to fill it. Time will ultimately tell.

Also, since I'm back from my previous engagement, I'll fiddle with Zoho some more so you guys can access it.
>> No. 43966
>>43963

Hrm, it looks like I gotta get emails so I can add people who are allowed to look at it. So give emails I guess?
>> No. 43967
>>43963

Hmmm... so, who would our candidates for Kingpin be?

My vote goes to...
Hmmm....

HARRY'S MOM!

no, no, just kidding...

Its definitely NOT Osbourne- he's a great businessman, but that just gives him less reason to run a crime syndicate. He probably views it as an "opportunity." A high-paying one.

How about... the Queen? A reimagining of the character, of course, but her MO would work pretty well... Pheromones...
>> No. 43968
>>43967

Whomever I pick, it'll probably be one of the more mainstream Spider Man characters to increase the chances of me actually knowing something about them.
>> No. 43970
Yeah, it seems like I'm gonna need your emails to invite you to this group...I'm not sure if I can do a open-invite thing for it, but I wanted a central place where people can add documents and such.
>> No. 43971
>>43970

Shoot, forgot about that... sorry...
>> No. 43972
>>43971

It's all right. I guess a wikia is the second option so people can edit it more freely. I'll set one up tomorrow. (And begin working on characters tomorrow.)

You'd actually need a Zoho account to edit fellow members' documents... Forgot about that... OpenGoo used to be the equivalent of Googledocs.. not sure about it anymore (it became Feng Office)

Also... I was feeling inspired...
>> No. 43974
>>43973

I'll also look into Feng Office. At first glance it seems like I could let people edit without an account.
>> No. 43975
>>43974

I'll trying it out right now..
Post results later...
>> No. 43976
Screw it, its not even free.

So, just for clarification, what's so wrong with Google docs? Sorry, bit behind on this. The privacy changes don't include any intrusive phishing, from what I understand- they can't read or interfere with what we do their services... unless it hurts people...
>> No. 43977
>>43976

I might have heard about the new privacy policy and got paranoid about it. But Marvel won't raise a stink about fan shit...I guess I jumped the gun. All right, I'll put it on Google Docs and share it.
>> No. 43978
Can't blame you for that. Some people flipped the switch over the information consolidation process.

I wonder when they'll figure out that all you need is a second account for googling porn.....
>> No. 43979

Wikia works. Especially since if we start seeing vandalism (i.e Spider-Womans entry goes from "Gwen Stacy" to "LOL WOMEN CAN'T BE SUPERHEROES" or somethings silly and childish, then you can just start forcing log-ins to edit, and eventually bans)
>> No. 43980
Okay, here's the document for the basic outline:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RHEgYopznbIRUfMENQ-HkWWHm_sQv6mkfkclLValCqs/edit

If you want a group, I can make one.
>> No. 43981
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
>> No. 43991
So did we want that group? I figure it'd be easier for people to add their own stuff that way.

>> No. 44001

There shouldn't be a password required.
>> No. 44006
Thanks for all the edits made so far. I'm really thinking about doing a group so you guys can put your own documents and stuff in for consideration. My lead characters tend to have some slightly eccentric tendencies or world views, so I imagine what I'll be using will be different from what you guys are thinking of. (Though ideas from all corners is great.)
>> No. 44007
So... you'd be ok with Peter turning to the Dark Side and selling out his Yellow Jacket tech and services during Gwen's time as venom? It'd be an interesting concept, seeing as Peter has an in with Dr. Octavious.
>> No. 44009
>>44007

That'd be an interesting idea. I'm not sure if I'm personally 100% for it but it's something to consider.
>> No. 44010
>>44009

We'll see how it goes. If we decide that Aunt May still has a heart attack during the Venom saga, we could probably take him down that alley... especially if Felicia starts pushing him in the right direction...

Green temptation...
>> No. 44020
I haven't been answering questions on the Google doc as it turns out I can't use a nickname on it, and I prefer to do so. In the meantime, here's the group I made for the project, so feel free to post stuff there:

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/the-spectacular-spider-gwen

As for the script itself, I'm still banging out characters. Gonna sit down tomorrow and block off time for it mainly. But I adore playing against type so I want to capture that while lining them up with past characterizations.
>> No. 44027
Okay, been working on this to a degree in the Google Doc, just to confirm I'm still on it!
>> No. 44031
Hey- Just a shot in the dark here but if Peter "goes to the Dark side" with Doc Oct or whomever would anyone object to it being Pym that pulls Pete out of his funk? Pym is practically a mad scientist himself but he fight the good fight and would see himself in Parker.

Just throwing it out there.
>> No. 44032
>>44031

That wouldn't be so bad in a side story. The main arc runs tight as is, but there are timegaps between certain issues that other stories can fill.
>> No. 44046
Guys:

How about reinventing Hypno-Hustler as a Deadmau5/Skrillex personality

Doesn't have to be a villain
>> No. 44048
>>44047
Somebody sure loves Hypno-Hustler...hell, go for it.

>>44046
I kinda want to bring in the FF if I ever do a second arc, so I'll keep this in mind.

Also I'm adding more and more stuff to the Google Doc every day, so be sure to keep tabs on it.

alright guys. at the last second when i was finishing the last parts of these concept sketches, autodesk and my tablet shat out at the same time. I managed to grab a screencap at the last second (lots of lasts). Sorry but this isn't how this was supposed to be presented. I managed to grab most of the important stuff on the screen. Yellow Jacket's flight backback is up to your interpretation until I get to it later this week maybe. i'll see what I can do now. But this is what I came up with
>> No. 44076
>>44073

Nice, dude! It seems to match up with my plan for Yellowjacket, namely as a costume that fits over a battle harness with exposed tech for gear. And it catches the slight Zabee reference I was thinking of. An excellent starting point.
>> No. 44088
>>44076
ohthankgod
I'll have the flightpack in whenever and anyone can do what they want with it afterwards
>> No. 44200
Okay, I've been looking over my more pressing projects as of late (other deadline-based writing plus my job hunt) and I realize that Spider-Gwen, while super cool, is not at the highest priority at this moment and I may not be able to block out a ton of time for an eight-issue series right now. However, I'd still like to be involved to some degree. Maybe we could get other writers to pitch in, I could do an issue or two and contribute the development notes I have?
>> No. 44204
>>44200
while in the same situation, I'd like to contribute as well to the writing
>> No. 44208
>>44204

My main concern is adding too many cooks to the pot in terms of who actually writes everything out. And I want these to be very good.
>> No. 44245
Okay, bringing this back up again. Who else might be interested in writing the project? I'm willing to dump all my compiled notes that they can use to write with.
>> No. 44263
>>44245
I'm for it, potentially.
>> No. 44266
>>44263

That'd be great. Maybe you could work with someone else as well so you don't have to do the whole run. As I said, I could do an issue maybe.
>> No. 44371
>>44266
Certainly. I don't think I could hack it all on my own.
>> No. 44382
>>44266

I'm game
>> No. 44732
>>44245
Always up for writing.
>> No. 44733

Any way you guys can team up on it or whatever would be great. Here are my notes to work with. Ideas and Outlines have the basic outline I planned for the eight issue arc, along with a lot of stuff copy/pasted from the /co/ threads. Characters have experimental ideas on how I'd do the characters.

At this point I'm also thinking about doing at least a one-shot, just to "set up" the whole world, give an idea what it's like. Sort of like an issue 0. Could be worth doing.

Small suggestive bump.

About Peter's part-time alter ego... I don't mean to step on anybody's toes, but how about calling him Hornet instead of Yellowjacket? I know it's such a small difference, but there is precedence for it.

Other than that I have no real suggestions and wish you all the best.
>> No. 45149
>>45138

I know about the other alter egos Peter once had, but I just chose Yellowjacket because I thought it popped more as a name.
>> No. 45284
>>45138
>>45149

I remember that came up. We discussed that in one the early thread, and agreed on Yellow Jacket. While Hornet has precedence, we decided to distance ourselves from "The Loners" and I think somebody wanted Peter to apprentice himself to Pym and lampshade the naming and their relationship. That being said I don't think it'll be a problem to swap the names about if people feel that strongly about it.

Anyone still working on this? I haven't seen any updates...
>> No. 45814
>>45783

That is awesome art.

I sort of...became unable to do anything else with this. Even more so these days with the job I have that requires a lot of hard focus on my part. Recently, though, I did get the idea of at least commissioning some art pieces illustrating different parts of the proposed story. I still really like the idea, but tons of shit have dominated my priorities these days.

I have an artist in mind, but since they won't be able to get to my request yet, I'll gladly look at others.
