BW Article Link: “No More Spider-Man”

SFDebris has relaunched the blog portion of his site. Part of this includes re-posting a 2008 look into why he dropped the Spider-Man titles after One More Day. (part 1) (part 2) (part 3) I wonder what he would think about Spider-Ock? While I’m happy to drive the point home that not only was the ending the marriage wrong, but how they did it even more so, the reason I’m linking to it is the behind-the-scenes information about various events involving the Spider-Titles. That’s what makes it worth the read regardless of your opinion on One More/Brand New Day.
