    I don't know because I'm a couple arcs behind since I switched to trades

    NA actually contradicted Spider-Man, as I understand it

    Spider-Man unmasked to the FF, they regained their memories

    Spider-Man unmasked to the New Avengers, they're like "hey peter, nice to meet you duder!"

    and then proceeded to freak out anytime they called him Peter

    I love his characterization in that book

    they didn't want Spider-Man to be a divorcee

    they felt it would age him

    these assholes are always worried about aging him

    he's 60 fucking years old I think you can age him a little

    no they will

    the hints all revolve around the thing she whispered to mephisto

    joe quesada said he saw the very words in a script he had received, and it would be out eventually

    Oh you mean like her telling Mephisto that that's his incentive for making people forget Spidey's identity?

    I actually kind of agree with that, I mean if they were dead set on undoing the marriage, which they clearly were.

    I prefer this to some divorce storyline.

    forgiving your lack of hyphen, there was a really badass future Spider-Man in a JMS arc a long ways back

    and then there was Spider-Man Reign

    ew.

    Violet - Love

    It's awesome

    Edit: also I guess Black - Death

    WILLPOWER ISNT AN EMOTION

    That's why it's in the center. It's the control of your emotions!

    I haven't thought of it until now, but I wouldn't be too surprised if they roped the Sentry into this. He's had more or less the same sort of memory shenanigans going on.

    Although I guess I should admit a certain amount of bias, since the series is basically a love letter to my favorite era of comics.

    I dont think Gage puts out enough stuff to be in that group.

    What he puts out is really good but he's not very prolific.
