Who's the woman behind Mary Jane, talking about Normie?
Thanks for the link. Looks like I have some ordering to do.

It's just something about Peter going all fatherly on May while openly talking about Spider-man/girl business that's enjoyable. I don't see why Marvel couldn't have done this with the 616 issue. The baby around Mary Jane and Peter looks good and in the 616 they wouldn't be as aged.
From what I saw in Last Hero Standing (read it in Borders), Peter still had the moves and if it wasn't for his leg I take it he'd still be in the game. As long as 616 doesn't have that happen I see no reason why they couldn't have him age more while being Spider-man.
Create a Spider family atmosphere. Works for Batman (side kicks and close friends) and Superman (cousins, wife, clones, etc).
Are there any Spider-girl advertisements in the 616 Spider-man titles? I don't recall if they are any or not. They would have gone a long way of getting those readers to reading this title I think.
