Due to the mystical meddling of Mephisto, Mary Jane has dropped the Parker last name with no memory of their wonderful marriage.
In a few words WTF! I realize the writers are always trying to ratchet up the story line but this is pure commercialism that can't be forgiven. This topic has appeared not just in comic forums but on hollywood blogs, magazines like PEOPLE, newspapers, etc… The owners of Marvel got exactly what they wanted, national media attention but in my opinion it may have been at the cost of the heroes soul (no pun intended).
M.J. has always been a part of the spider storylines. To casually treat the MJ character as they have is an insult to every Spiderman writer that has come before. I could live with storylines of divorce, cheating, etc… but to eliminate all memory of the relationship? That's like saying Uncle Ben & Aunt May never existed and are not really important to the storyline!
O.K. I've vented, still not to thrilled with Marvel though. So what's your opinion on the subject?
