This week Ben and Hank are talking about Marvel comics about Gwens.
Specifically Gwen Stacy (Spider-Gwen; Ghost-Spider; Spider-Woman) and Gwendolyn Poole (Gwenpool).
The particular comics we're talking about are Spider-Gwen (2015), Spider-Gwen (2015-2018), Spider-Gwen: Ghost-Spider (2018-Present) and The Unbelievable Gwenpool (2016 - 2018).
Since we recorded this episode multiple women have brought accusations of sexual misconduct against Jason Latour, the co-creator of Spider-Gwen and the writer of the first 2 Spider-Gwen series (the 2015 mini-series and the 2015-2018 ongoing; as well as the original one shot where she appeared) that we talked about.

Artist Robbi Rodriguez, the other co-creator of Spider-Gwen and artist of those comics, was also implicated in those accusations.
You can find more details in this article that gives a timeline for this wave of allegations across the industry: http://www.multiversitycomics.com/news/2020-allegations-timeline/
