#I think what I like so much about this story is that it’s a bit of a reverse fridging
#where it’s the boyfriend who dies early on and motivates the heroine’s journey into vigilantism and revenge
#and even then this isn’t a true fridging as Marc’s loss is still distinctly felt after his passing
#as opposed to being completely swept aside
#and I think they quite adeptly side step the accusation of ‘oh of course Marc’s passing is being grieved in this story
#because women are more emotional while a dude would have just moved along :////’
#by alluding to Frenchie’s own grieving process
#indicating that this is simply a story that takes a more human approach to how comic book characters might react
#to losing a loved one
#who’s not completely forgotten nor completely idolized (which I think is a role Gwen Stacey fell into a lot in 70’s-90’s Spider-Man comics)
#but instead they wrestle with a complex individual’s legacy who could simultaneously inspire frustration and the desire to do great good
