Marvel Gives Spider-Woman a Ferocious – and Stylish – New Arch-Enemy (Exclusive)

Marvel is about to introduce a ferociously stylish arch-enemy to Spider-Woman‘s rogues gallery.

CBR has an exclusive look at Spider-Woman #14 by Karla Pacheco and Pere Peréz. The issue debuts a new villain named Rose Roche, who will come to torment Jessica Drew in her next adventure. “Creating new characters in the Marvel Universe is pretty much one of the best things about my job…especially when they REALLY complicate Jessica Drew’s life!” Pacheco teases. “As much fun as Pere and I had creating Octavia Vermis and Los Espadas, Rose might be my favorite addition to the Spider-Woman cast so far.”

When pressed if Rose is truly evil, Pacheco countered, “… I mean, this is a Karla and Pere creation, so yeahhhhh that’s a pretty safe bet. But like all our villains, she’s a total badass! And extremely hot.”

Along with preview pages for Spider-Woman #14, CBR can also exclusively reveal character design sheets for Rose Roche. They feature her wearing a pink pants suit that matches her long pink hair. Some alternate designs show Rose without her jacket and with her hair pulled up in a bun.
