Poll: Do you see Marten and Dora's relationship lasting?
tomart:
My bad; I probly shouldn't expound on the touchy subject of sexual politics. I don't want anyone's head to explode on my account. Especially anyone intelligent and insightful.
On topic: Yes, I think it will last. |o_O/ They're both good people, good for each other, and the relationship keeps a Faye-tension going...

I read about the Spiderman-Mephisto thing. My guess is it finally occurred to the Marble goons after their silly stunt had run it's course that unmasked Spidey = short-lived Spidey. So they pulled a Deus ex Machina to save their cash-cow. Only it was a Diabla ex machina. Is that better, somehow?
There would be a QC plot twist. The devil, or maybe Trent Reznor, offers to make Marten Dora's forever. But she has to listen to Shania Twain music exclusively, or the deal's off.

God, what a hideous fate. I'd rather just take my chances. I did wonder when I heard about the unmasking in Civil War. Spiderman making a deal with the devil does sound...odd. Did he have to lose Mary-Jane?
No, the plot twist will be a shattering blow to the QC world: Dora will die in a slightly suspicious manner. Faye will be accused of murdering her love rival. Marten, Hannelore and Sven will fight to clear her name.

It's complicated, and it in the actual Spider-man continuity.

That's the whole thing, with it getting taunted and whatnot.
To put it in basic terms, Aunt May got shot by a bullet meant for Spidey. Spidey felt all sad about it, and tried to find a way to help her. He found none. Mephisto, who is Marvel's version of Satan essentially, shows up to help him. He will save May's life in exchange for his marriage.
Spidey and Jane talk it over, and they agree. May is saved, Spider-man never married Mary Jane, all those fancy upgrades he got in "The Other" are gone, and nobody remembers Spider-man's identity anymore. As in, they seriously just forgot who the hell he was. He still un-masked during Civil War, but nobody remembers who was under the mask. Nobody questions this.
It's basically the worst storyline since The Clone Saga.

Marvel just killed a bit of my childhood.
