BlushMallet - Spider-Gwen and Iron Mary Jane
I admit that ever since I started reading the Spider-Gwen comics, I had this idea in my teeth. The idea of Gwen Stacy and Mary Jane Watson getting together. Although, it doesn’t quite look like that happened in the comics but hey, a guy can still imagine. The notion I had was that the police are still trying to catch Spider-Woman (Gwen Stacy) and so to try to catch her, a new kind of weapon is made; the Iron Spider, a creation of Stark Industries. And after a series of events, Tony Stark gives the suit to Mary Jane Watson who is then charged with finding and capturing Spider-Woman. But things, as they often do in comics, become very complicated when Mary Jane finds out that not only is Gwen the Spider-Woman but her feelings for her have deepened far beyond what she expects.
So, with that in mind, I contacted @blushmallet and asking for something very classic with this pair. And who can forget the infamous “Spider kiss” in which one is upside down and the other is standing and they meet in a mid-air kiss. For this, I decided to have it where the roles are reversed and Mary Jane is the one that’s upside down.
After that, the classic block of the background came up. So, I decided to use the background that I used for another Iron Spider pic: BlushMallet - Iron Mary Jane
After using that, I decided to do something else that is classic in the Spider-man comics; throwing in a Spider-heart. But I also knew that using the original red with black webbing wouldn’t exactly be appropriate since Peter Parker is nowhere to be seen in this. So, I used the heart and did a different color scheme with it; first I did the Spider-Gwen colors, white, magenta, black and turquoise. Then I thought, “why not do one for MJ?” And so I did one for her as well.
And what’s more when I was typing all this out I was looking over the heart and then something very profound hit me. With the heart and with all that’s been going on, I decided to do one more heart style. I decided to use the LGBTQ+ pride flag and inlay it into the heart. Because, love is love and one should be allowed to love who they wish.
I hope all of you enjoy this as much as I did coloring it. My Thanks to BlushMallet for the marvelous work they did.
