<<Mr. Mackie, you deserve a statue. How many times have I heard about "those awful Nineties!" (Aunt May mode) from those readers who love the same stuff (produced today) and from those authors who WRITE this stuff. I call it the "calendar syndrome". It turns out that an avent is good or bad because the year of release. >>
What is is that they say about those who fail to learn the lessons of history? Anyway...what kind of statue?

Not to start thread drift, but compared to Iron Man, Spider-man seems like
he's in pretty good shape.

I don't know how to repair what's been done to Spider-Man over the past few years, but having Mary Jane wake up, shuffle to the bathroom, and find Peter in the shower, saying, "Good morning! Bad dream, MJ?" is sort of tempting.

In Spider-Man: Disassembled, the villainess turns Spider-Man into a giant
spider monster thingy. The spider seems to die, and Spider-Man pops out
of the corpse with organic webbing and the ability to talk to spiders (and
insects, because apparently spiders and insects share the same lingua
franca).
In Spider-Man: The Other, the bad guy beats the crap out of Spider-Man,
forcing him to embrace his "inner spider", which results in his developing
the ability to grow fangs and arm stingers. He then dies, but crawls out of
his skin, shedding it like an exoskeleton, completely healed.

Ahem. It's Superman-Prime. Or possibly [Young Superman]-Prime.

<<Howard, you really must get over the Clone Saga. Trust me, since then, there have been FAR WORSE Spider-Man stories produced. (I'm looking at you, SINS PAST!)>>
For me, at one point, the Clone Saga was worse. If Ben Reilly stays the real Peter Parker then I think it's worse. However, that's not what happened, so I agree that SINS PAST beats it by leaps and bounds. I didn't like the totem stuff and the Other, but they didn't leave the incredibly sour taste in my mouth that SINS PAST did.

Welcome to NuMarvel. Integrity of the characters? Who cares about that as long as it sells?
