With accusations of sexual harassment against the artist/writer recently coming to light, Marvel Comics reportedly has no current plants to work with Spider-Gwen co-creator Jason Latour in the future.
The Hollywood Reporter ran a piece detailing measures taken to halt misconduct in the industry, including cutting ties with alleged abusers. Citing Insiders from Marvel, THR explains that "the company has no plans with the creator [Latour]."
Latour is best known for creating Spider-Gwen alongside artist Robbi Rodriguez. The comic centers on Earth-65's version of Gwen Stacy who takes up the mantle of Spider-Woman (later Ghost-Spider); the character became a runaway hit, later appearing in the animated feature film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Latour's other work for Marvel includes Wolverine and the X-Men.
Latour was accused of harassment and sexual misconduct by illustrator and designer Lauren Tracey, aka Lorua, in June. Loura described an encounter at the 2017 Thought Bubble festival where Latour continually tried to proposition her to come to his hotel room. The account was later backed up by stories from other comics pros, including Hannah Blumenreich and Tess Fowler. Other creators who have had allegations leveled against them include Warren Ellis and Cameron Stewart; Rodriguez has also been accused of inappropriate behavior.
