Date: 2010-12-19 07:45 pm (UTC)See, that's where your argument just breaks down completely, this is comics, the graphic text equivalent of a soap opera. There is no such thing as a relationship "torched beyond repair" in such a narrative context, and too many examples of the reverse being true, where apparently completely irreconcilable characters ARE reconciled out of a need for some sense of narrative continuity.
The Lizard only has something like three characters he interacts with regularly on a human/lizard level; his wife, his son and Spider-Man. Killing Billy simply removes story "potential" for the future, because now they can't use him as a touchstone for humanity for Connors.
