Gwen hasn't returned to the Marvel universe, but she has discovered her "normal" reality is actually a comic book. We're following her past genre-savviness into all-out medium awareness; buckle the ˜ ˜ ˜ ˜ up! This issue is so incredibly clever and fun that I'm really struggling to talk about it without chaining together endless superlatives. This arc is developing into a perfect exploration of all the possibilities of Gwenpool's unique situation. This is *exactly* the wild, paradoxical, self-aware analysis of the medium we've been waiting for since we heard that there was a real-world comics fan loose in the Marvel universe. This is possibly the best Marvel thing I've read all year.

I love it when comics start playing with the medium and Gurihiru does an excellent job of this. Check this issue out even if you aren't reading the series but like reading meta comics. It's a crime that there aren't any 'critic reviews' for this issue.

Last issue was overwhelmingly dull and dry. Probably intentionally so but it still made consider dropping an otherwise consistently fun title. This issue was a 180 degree turn. This metatextual journey, with fine clean artwork, literally through a comic book was - brilliant! Worthy of comparison to Animal Man #25 finale which was just as brilliant if memory serves.

I like this psychological thing going on in this issue. Is it real or not? Is she crazy or absolutely right? I can't wait to se how Hastings explains all this. It's king like Moon Knight but less crazy and more funny. And As always Gurihiru should never ever leave.
