Does this Quesada point make sense
Does this Quesada point make sense
In the continuing drama of the Spider-Man marriage, Joe Quesada (in his always interesting, at the very least, weekly column, Joe Fridays) wondered why people werent discussing a point of his, which he seems to think is a big winner. Says Joe,
What I found interesting is that no one seemed to address a very important point I made last week. Knowing that having a child or getting divorce, annulled, separated, or widowed and all those sorts of things arent an option, there is not a single story of a married Peter Parker that cant be told with a single Peter Parker. On the other hand, the exact opposite isnt true.I dont get it.
Does that make sense? Does he have some big winner here? It doesnt seem to make sense to me, as I dont see how that is that strong of a point. I mean, PICK a Spider-Man change. Like the organic webspinners. Is there a story out there with organic webspinner Peter Parker that cant be told with webshooters Peter Parker?
In the alternative, does the fact that you can tell stories with Spider-Man living in Avengers Tower that you cant tell if Spider-Man lives in a shitty apartment make the Avengers Tower thing a better plot device? I dont see how it does.
If its just "The marriage is constraining," then fine, I think people get that - they acknowledge it.
But otherwise, what am I missing here that makes this an awesome point?
