Spider-Man Splits With Mary Jane, Wife of 20 Years!


LOS ANGELES — "It was bad enough when Jamie Lynn Spears, the 16-year-old all-American girl, announced she was pregnant.

But Spider-Man splitting with Mary Jane, his wife of more than 20 years? We didn't see that one coming.

Which is exactly the point, says Joe Quesada, editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics. It was time to shake things up in the life of Peter Parker, the nerdy New Yorker who upon being bitten by a radioactive spider attained the ability to transform himself into a web-spinning world savior. And it was easier to do that, he said, if Parker wasn't married."

This is absolutely, positively, beyond a shadow of a doubt despicable!

As a happily married man I could not even begin to imagine being without the love of my life, and I strongly urge the Spider-Man creators to re-hitch him forthwith.
