''ComicBook/TheNightGwenStacyDied'' is easily one of the best-known ComicBook stories of all time, infamous for killing off [[Characters/SpiderManLoveInterests Gwen Stacy]], then-girlfriend of ComicBook/SpiderMan. Though she's continued to live on in the Franchise/MarvelUniverse since dying -- usually through clones and alternate universes -- she's almost always been defined by [[ILetGwenStacyDie her death being used as a means for Peter's character development]].

After learning this Gwen is usually seen eating very high calorie food to keep herself and the Spider "fueled up."

Spider-Gwen quickly found her way outside comic books, with a variant of the character who hails from the same universe as ComicBook/MilesMorales making an appearance in the final season of ''WesternAnimation/UltimateSpiderMan2012'', just two years after her debut. ''WesternAnimation/MarvelsSpiderMan'''s incarnation of Gwen Stacy would go on to develop spider powers herself later in that show's run. Versions of the character more reflective of the Earth-65 Gwen Stacy's backstory and persona would later appear in the ''Franchise/MarvelRising'' franchise (the first instance of the character using the alias "Ghost Spider") and Creator/SonyPicturesAnimation's ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse''.

Spider-Gwen, who first appeared in the ComicBook/SpiderVerse in 2014, got her own RoleSwapAU comic line in 2015 centering around Gwen being the one who got bit by the radioactive spider instead of Peter, becoming Spider-Woman/Ghost Spider.

But then The Lizard attacks her school, and she battles him until he dies, only to transform back into her friend and neighbor, Peter Parker. From that point on, she was wanted by the police for Peter's death, and turned to heroics to prevent more of the same thing from happening to others.

Which is why in the second issue of her solo title, the rest of her bandmates are shocked to see her passed out on a sofa, barefoot, wearing the leggings of her costume and a sweater she fished out of the trash.
