This is the dumbest f*cking thing ever. Its like Marvel keeps saying "Hey, what's the dumbest thing we can do to Spider-Man?"
Every couple years this happens. This is by far the best take on this non-event that I've read:

I find modern 'Big 2' superhero books impossible to get into. Everything seems unaccessible, crass, mean-sprited, blatantly commercial, and horribly horribly horribly decompressed.
... but what stopped me reading them in the first place (early-mid aughts) was the feeling that nothing mattered. Like a writer? He'll be fired a few issues from now. Like this new development? It'll be ignored in a few months. Love this story? It'll be retconned out of existence in a year or two.
I understand that there are jems in there, I don't have the stamina to fish for 'em.
