I dropped the title from my pull list for the first time ever. Hopefully when sales plummet they'll retcon the entire thing....

What's the story? I haven't picked up Spiderman for years. Ever since the Heroes Reborn thing - I still don't completely understand what exactly happened there.

I figure it's not going to last, bad sales or no; it's entirely fitting with Joe Quesada's past editorial decisions to have a big "world shaking event. Nothing will ever be the same!" and then change it back in a year or two.I mean, at the time of the unmasking he was saying that it was going to be permanent, they had no plans to retcon it, and now it comes out they had planned to retcon it all along.

While a small segment applauds the return of the single, nebbish, loser Peter Parker (I mean, we only had 25 years of that character...), most of fandom thinks it's on par with "Bobby Ewing in the shower it's all a dream" crap. Basically the worst part is they could have done the same thing, without having to pretty much destroy 20 years of comics continuity (i.e, MJ and Peter decide to divorce due to Mephisto's plotting, etc), if they just sat down and thought it out for maybe ten minutes. Joe Quesada, who has gone on record for many years saying Peter and MJ getting married was the worst move in Marvel Comic's history, finally had the power to change the entire thing...and he made a ludicrous mess of it. Ugh. I'll be treating this like a "imaginary" fill in and come back after they change it back.Looking forward to having the entire events of the Civil War storyline changed back due to it being a dream induced by The Watcher or something......Mike B.

Now apparently another reason to hate it: It's bad for you! http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22718183//w ... ?GT1=10815We already know listening to Country music causes depression. Now this. I wonder if the music industry will start putting warning labels on rap albums stating that listening to this music may kill you.
