In a universe where Gwen Stacy was the one bitten by a genetically-engineered spider instead of Peter Parker, she became New York’s super heroine with arachnid-like super-powers!
Following the death of her mother, Gwen was raised alone by her father George. Her freedom-seeking artistic spirit was often at odds with her NYPD father’s brand of ethics, often leading Gwen to seek seclusion and solace by drumming alone in her room.
Over time, Gwen bonded over a shared love of music and developed a close friendship with her neighbor and fellow introvert Peter Parker. While attending Midtown High School, Gwen developed relationships with other students such as the rebel Harry Osborne and The Mary Janes — her band, which she formed with a group of schoolmates.
At this phase of life, Gwen was bitten by a radioactive spider, granting her arachnid-like powers and the means to start her career as a crimefighter! The media dubbed her: Spider-Woman.
Retired crimefighter Janet van Dyne gave Gwen web shooters and a costume fit for a spider-hero and Gwen set off to put a stop to wrongdoers in NYC!
It wasn’t long until the influence of Spider-Woman led to Gwen being blamed for the death of her close friend Peter Parker, and she was subsequently branded a criminal.

Ghost-Spider Gwen is represented in MARVEL SNAP through her agile ability:
