Spider-Man comics

I am a big fan of Spider-Man and have been reading Spider-Man comics since 1997 when I started collecting Panini's Astonishing Spider-Man Collector's Editions comics.

In my opinion, I enjoyed the Clone Saga even though later on, I heard there were some criticisms.

But lately, I'm a bit disappointed with the direction of Spider-Man comics now, even though it is old news.

I am pissed off with the One More Day storyline and the erasure of Peter and Mary Jane's marriage. I grew up reading Spider-Man comics knowing that they were married and now they made a deal with the Devil (Mephisto) to save Peter's Aunt May. I mean, come one, the Devil himself? That is way out of Spider-Man's league! The people who thought up this idea and wrote the storyline should be ashamed of themselves and doesn't deserve to call themselves professional writers.

Think about it, would you sacrifice your marriage for a old lady who is nearly about to croak? I don't mean to disrespect but I surely wouldn't sacrifice my marriage for her!
