What you have stated, Freezer, is both true and sad at the same time. I was born in 1988, one of the first years of the Spider-Marriage, and all the stories I read were the ones done during that period. I learned to like these stories as well as liking the stuff from Lee and Ditko as well as the Bronze Age. I would be a liar if I said I didn't like some of the old stories (I personally liked Gwen Stacy) but it's much better to remember those good days with nostalgia as well as fleshing/updating them without murdering the current status quo. It's an insult to both the older stories and modern stories to do things like OMD, an event that technically erased most of mine life. OMD reminds me of Ozymandia's plot to save the Earth by using a phony Alien attack because things will obviously change the moment the main orchestrator is no longer at a powerful position or alive. I just hope things get fixed eventually at both DC and Marvel.
