His main schtick with Spider-man is basically 'I'm going to change Spider-man' He's basically changed him so much he's pretty much unrecognizable except in name and sometimes he wears his costume. It's just Bloody awful. Did you know Spider-man had magic powers? I sure didn't. That finally been said, JMS also compared Prison 42 to the HOUAAs, where people were questioned then some people lost their jobs because they were allegedly connected with communism. Not very fair ofcourse, but its something that has been rehashed as early as last year with Clooney's tired whining about it in monochromatic filmic glory. Not really a comparison to locking people up without a trial. Civil War is embarring to many comic fans including myself. Certainly, a good writer could atleast find a better comparison than a bunch of actors and screenwriters in the fifties losing their jobs over something. Maybe the Japenese detainment in the 1940s. Now that's closer.
