Peter, Mary Jane and Annie-May Parker: Renew Your Vows Appreciation 2018

Rich takes a bit of a jab at the Spider-Marriage readership in this article about Marvel's lower selling titles

Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows at no. 102 is a massive drop — the biggest fall of the chart. Maybe people don’t want to read about a married Spider-Man and Mary Jane after all.

Seems like the 8 years skip wasn't the wisest move.

Had it not been for the legacy issues of Ms. Marvel and Gen X, RYV would have been in the top 100. It was only two places outside of it, I think it's still stable. Rich shouldn't be using that opportunity to throw shade at the marriage. There were plenty of instances it was outselling Spider-Gwen last year, that title is only having a boost lately because Venom moves the needle

And RYV's own Legacy issue was in November, which is the real reason for the huge drop. He should've taken the Legacy variants into account.

You can say that again, but I digress as I've already voiced my displeasure on multiple occasions.

I really liked this series before the time skip. Not too excited about picking it up anymore.

I'm one of the biggest Spider-Marriage fans as written by Michelinie, DeMatteis, DeFalco, and JMS. This series isn't my thing though anymore. Could have been good with the original vision.

Even better if it had not been a Spider team book tbh. Would have enjoyed a married solo Spider-Man and not a team book. More real world drama and a bit more serious tone would have helped for me too.

I don't blame RYV for trying something different. While not a lot of people wanted MJ "waiting by the window" again, if it had been more like what the newspaper strip does with the marriage, it'd probably have gone down a treat. An MJ who is heroic, but still is down to Earth, doing her own thing and having her own stories told while Peter takes the fight to a baddie himself.

I didn't like kid Annie being endangered and much prefer her teen version, and I think it's far too early to tell if she will be a direct copy of Mayday. I intend to still give RYV a fair shake.

are these newspaper stories you keep talking about collected anywhere?

IDW have been collecting the earliest stuff in trade for a few years now, but they're not even at the point Peter and MJ married yet.

You can read the most recent strips online.

Nice to see Annie's troublemaking female friend from Conway's run.

Gee, time hasn't been kind to Jonah much

[Digifiend]

Looks like Jonah is telling Peter "You're Fired!". Solicits say he'll be getting a job at the school.

[Miles To Go]

Perhaps Peter is being made redundant? A commentary perhaps on the decline of newspapers and news photographers since anyone can take a photo with their smart devices and upload them to blogs and websites?

[Digifiend]

A good point. Heck, Peter's silver and bronze age adventures probably need retconning considering that. Becoming a freelance photographer doesn't make much sense in the 21st century.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but it feels weird to see Jonah looking so old .
