    I voted yes, but we'd need a far better creative and editorial team than currently exists in order to not create even worse.

    Until OMD is retconned, I won't be buying ANYTHING from Marvel with the word "Spider" in the title.

    That pretty much makes my opinion clear.
    Though much is taken, much abides; and though
    We are not now that strength which in old days
    Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,
    One equal temper of heroic hearts,
    Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
    To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

    --Lord Alfred Tennyson--

    YES. Please end it in the most confrontational way possible. I don't know how but I want it to be confronted, stomped, and spat on. If anyone should get rid of this sore spot its MJ than Peter. Please it just feels hollow reading Spider-Man comics knowing that event just happened with no mention or removal of it.

    I'd like Peter to make another deal with Mephisto that has bad consequences, maybe MJ dies or something, so that the fans are so outraged they stop complaining about OMD and move onto something else

    Nope.

    It's better to have a Peter Parker who was never married.

    OMD was already undone. OMIT needs to be undone, though.

    Kind of, sort of. I don't want another magical/cosmic thing where we're trying to figure out what did and didn't still happen afterwards. I want Peter and MJ to be back together, but let's take our time. Work from where they are now. Take our time getting them back into a relationship, getting them closer, and eventually, maybe a couple of years down the line, get them married again.

    Yes!!!! It was a terrible idea,and nothing that's been done since has come close to justifying it's existence.

    What about Mephisto, though?

    It feels like too much time has passed to address OMD again in the books. It would be like the writers deciding to finish the mystery of F.A.C.A.D.E now.

    However, if the writing and art was excellent, and the story was built up over months with Peter slowly realizing that things in his current reality are somehow warped or wrong. That he's having trouble remembering portions of his life, etc. It could make for a very entertaining psychological thriller. (Perhaps he even runs into an old acquaintance that has gone mad because he or she remembers how the world originally was before Mephisto altered it.) It has to be something really well written and built up though, I don't want someone to rush some piece of garbage to the stands simply to return to the married status quo.

    In an interview JoeQ sad that OMD was a "three act play" and after OMIT there was still one more story to tell, but considering OMIT was pretty bad (except for the art) I cringe at the thought of what the final act could be.

    I voted yes to getting rid of OMD.

    It's a really terrible story that kinda ruined Spider-Man for me.
    I haven't bought a single issue of ASM since.

    The marriage I can take or leave though, especially if writers don't feel like they can produce a compelling story with such a status quo (which is a little weird, but whatevs).
