Where it came from
Published in June 1981, Spider-Woman #39 serves as a poignant conclusion to the original Jessica Drew series. As Marvel Comics navigated the editorial shifts of the early 1980s, the title faced a period of creative transition before reaching its final issue. This installment was crafted during a time when the character's narrative direction was being significantly reevaluated, leading to the temporary retirement of the lead character.
The issue features the creative work of writer Chris Claremont and illustrator Steve Leialoha. Claremont, known for his definitive character development, focused on bringing closure to Jessica Drew’s long-standing struggles, emphasizing her personal growth rather than traditional superhero conflict. While the series did not reach the commercial heights of flagship titles like The Amazing Spider-Man, this concluding issue is held in high regard by collectors for its narrative integrity and its role in setting the stage for the character's eventual return to the broader Marvel canon years later.
