Spider-Woman #1

[informationgeek]

"That is a complicated question and the answer will play a big role in the series. Jess doesn't particularly like children. She's made that pretty clear in the past. She hasn't been waiting around for the right guy to settle down and have a family. That's never been part of her plan. All of this is new uncharted ground for her and a big life changing business. It's not a trick or a gimmick. It's a story.
...
I won't get into it here but I very much relate to Jessica's stance on children. There are big, strong, deep-rooted reasons why she never wanted to be a parent. I understand that. I lived that. Then one day everything changed. Jess seemed like the perfect character for this story." - Dennis Hopeless


"If you were on board with the new version of Spider-Woman (and why wouldn't you be, as it's the most interesting and relatable take on the character in maybe ever), then you'll be relieved to know this is the same Jessica Drew." - Matt Little, a reviewer for CBR

Once the writers are tired of her having an infant/toddler, he/she will be A) kidnapped, never to be seen again, B) Artificially aged through any one of a hundred methods, C) Retconned into never existing, D) Fostered out to or adopted by someone obscure, E) Killed for the ultimate in dramangst.

Comics are very good at losing babies when they no longer serve a purpose.

One thing I like about indie books. I follow Gold Digger, where they had a kid, bit of a time skip, and then she's just stayed a character.
