Wow, this is like exactly what happened with Peter and MJ before One More Day. A little bit before OMD started, they put out an annual for Spectacular Spider-man that ended with this exchange:

Mary Jane: Maybe the rest of the world thinks that marriage is something to do between other marriages, but it means something to me. You're my partner and my husband and I love you. This is our life.
Peter: Yeah. You and me. Forever and Always.

Aaaaaaand then One More Day happened and all that got thrown away. Nice to see it happening again. :/

The Spider-Man thing was a much different situation though since we didn't know that the devil divorce was a sure thing when that issue rolled. IIRC that annual got a lot of people's hopes up that Marvel wasn't going to fuck over the marriage.

In this case we know and have known the marriage-haters have won, I'm not gonna fault a writer for stopping before that to eulogize these characters as they were (while also apologizing for the last year or so of breathtakingly stupid Superman stories) (also, that Martian Manhunter joke was kinda good).
