This Spidey reset makes me mad, and I don't even read Spider-man. Joe Q can go deepthroat a steak knife. The more accessible Spider-man already exists, and it is called Ultimate Spider-man. Any stories that you want to tell about young Peter could be told in something like Tales of Spider-man. Is that a book? It could have stories from the past, with no need for "a wizard did it" bullshit retcon.
I know Civil War and all of that shit was terrible (Iron Spidey, the unmasking, Gwen and Osborn's ninja kids), but I think this is the wrong way to do it. Let Aunt May die already, for crying out loud. Let go of the past, dammit. Move forward.
TDOT, this isn't the first time they've relied on a plot device that could only have been created by a:
1. Man driven insane by the gases emitted by all the shit he eats.
2. Hatred Robot
3. Incompetent Fuckmook
4. All of the above amalgamated into a single creature bred only for failure.
If you're talking about the complaining....yeah, that's some faggot-ass shit, yo.
I especially like the fact that they last line in that Brand New Day cribsheet is "Don't look back, look forward!". It's pretty blatant propaganda. Like we're the ones responsible for this dumbfuckery.

i just finished reading it.
im just sad that this is how they decided to end JMS's run on Spider-Man. I mean really, that is like the biggest 'fuck you' ever.
Some retcons do not directly contradict previously established facts, but "fill in" missing background details, usually to support current plot points.

It has an upside. A writer that isn't completely fucking incompetent may be free of a lot of bullshit if they choose to write Spidey.
that is incredible

Mainly because it's due to shit like that that I don't read comics in the first place.
That shit usually happens with the big superhero characters.
There are plenty of superhero books and non-superhero books devoid of that dogshit.

They could have come up with some awesome way to annul Spiderman's marriage.

The Killing Joke issue, for example.
Like Babs got shot by the Joker because he was a robot sent from the future.
Or saying that Spidey always had organic shooters and he was just messing with our heads all those times he ran out of cartridges before.

Why the fuck hasn't Daredevil gotten that offer?
Oh, I remember now.
He's a scary motherfucker, and has the audacity to sue your ass off if you imply he's Daredevil.

Instead of talking about it.
A scrub is a guy who thinks he's fine. (Also known as a "busta")
Always thinking about what he wants, but sits on his broke ass.
retcon'd
Retcon is a very broad term that includes a lot of things, I wasn't trying to start an argument guys. Sorry.
Lets say I never brought it up, if anyone asks about it:
