It seems like Strange is hinting that he knows something is up on those preview pages though with all the talk about how Spidey shouldn't be afraid to ask for help and how if Spidey is SURE if there's anything he can't help him with.
"Like, I dunno...making a deal with the devil and losing your marriage?"
"What?"
"Nothing, I didn't say anything."
just when I decide to drop ASM from my pull list, and burn the last arc in an attempt to exorcise the demons... you go and post a preview that is both interesting and not written like it was being submitted for a 9th grade creative writing class.
Thanks... I'll send you my 2.99 bill.
I think it's because we're restarting the rotation and all the writers have gotten their stupid jokes about the situation out of their system.
hey look who wrote the afterward to the one more day collection

Why just last week, my cousin cut a deal with a talking gecko to save a ton of money on his car insurance! And the gecko didn't ask for anything except to take his daughter to prom!

But isn't the whole point of BND to go back down the same road?(ie: to make Pete a bachelor who has bad luck with the ladies, still lives with his Aunt May and uses webshooters again.) How is this different from Spidey circa the 1960's?

I think Stan's just trying to say that change for the sake of change isn't a bad thing, and actually can be a good thing. He's not commenting at all on the type of change or the implementation or anything.
Hell, edit a few sentences and I'm sure he could've thrown the same sentiments together for the demasking.
Ok lets just skip past the bit where everyone tells me not to buy it. Because I am going to buy it. Because the segment of my brain that controls my compulsive desire to collect is like five times bigger than my common sense lobe.
So what I want to know is, the OMD hardcover that's currently out. Is that an oversized or premier version? Help me out guys, I just can't tell online and I don't want to buy it if it's just a premier edition!

No for a lot of people it was what happaned, even if they say otherwise.
I'm sure you've got far more insight into what people think than the people who think it.
I'm not saying everyone, and I'm not saying you, but there would have been fan outrage no matter how they did it.
I don't think it's unreasonable to say that anyone who didn't like the idea of it happening would choose to attack the change at its weakest point, how it happened. As such, I wouldn't be surprised to find out there were a lot of people who didn't like both what happened and how it happened and had they done it a different way, they would still not be happy.

So the new issue is good
But I have a question, something that they may need to address soon
Small spoilers, like 2 lines, ahead
Spidey mentions that he remembers how bad a blue hoodie looks like over his costume, meaning he remembers Ben Reilly
I uh didn't think that that happened in post-OMD Spidey.
Also the whole "fucking with your unborn child" thing, hitting him where it hurts most: his family.
Finding out MJ was in danger was what pushed Peter to beat the piss out of Norman, if I remember right.
And then he was a bitch and stopped and pulled both of their masks off and then glider + Ben = the end
so no-prizes are pretty much editors going "fix this shit for us"?
No it's sorta like when you figure something out or do something special or whatever.
Instead of saying "Yeah. You want a fucking cookie?" they just give you a No-Prize.
Specifics of what happened, perhaps? You can spoiler space it, if you are worried about that sort of thing.
Nothing special in particular, there's a crazy Blizzard in New York and Dr. Strange discovers it's unnatural - so Spidey and Logan investigate, fight some weird dudes and have lots of amusing Spidey/Logan banter.
Gorgeous Bachalo art and genuinely funny dialouge with a rockin action sequence together with a classic Spidey/Wolverine teamup = lots of fun.

It's something Stan Lee created back in the 60's to make the dedicated fans who wrote in feel like they had earned something.
oh, I get it for when fans notice something
but the one at the back of this issue was like, "Yeah, we realize this doesn't make sense. I mean, we could explain it, but how about you guys do that for us?"

That's just lazy.
Like I got a "No-Prize" for pointing out that if Carol Danvers was at Luke Cages wedding in Air Force garb, she should be in her 'blues', but she was wearing a brown outfit.
...My sisters in the Air Force, I learn these things.
I got the impression they were just looking for the most creative response, not an actual fool-proof answer to the continuity issues that came from BND being pushed back

Not restarting yet, this is Wells' first arc
Now that's what I call a win-win!
At least 10 of those dollars are paying for the next Gale arc.
Fool.
But really, Stan giving it the thumbs-up is pretty cool.
And I don't think that all the outrage was over what happened, but how it happened.

It's over-sized, apparently.

If nothing else, the art is very pretty.

But "It's magic" is just fucking retarded.

Just because the last arc was below average.. I'm still really enjoying BND on a whole.
In all seriousness, this is my biggest problem. I hate the premise behind the series and how it all happened, but I really like some of the writers.
The first few arcs WERE a mess though.
But I have a question, something that they may need to address soon

I uh didn't think that that happened in post-OMD Spidey.
All that stuff still happaned, he just wasn't married to MJ while it happaned.
And that hasn't happened so much

Unless this "Harry" is actually a Skrull. Or a demon. Or a demon Skrull.
