Yet another jab to the fans of the Spider-Marriage from the "Brain Trust"...
...only this time it's from Hercules' "Assault on New Olympus" story.

This was written by Fred Van Lente, who I hopefully don't have to introduce given his history here.

Honestly. On one hand, the attitude is just, "Get over it!" and the on the other hand they like throwing salt on the wound with these little jabs to the fans.

I haven't read the House of M Cap tie-ins, but I'm told his life was pretty sad at that point.

No more so than any other octogenarian non-mutant.

And Wolverine's desire wasn't for a specific incident to be changed, it was for something about himself to be different.

And the only reason to do it the way she did was because she was giving him EXACTLY what he wanted.

If it was just 'change something and let things play out' he'd have been given his general wish ('I want to know my past') without creating a window to undo the universe.

But that's not what she was doing - she was giving everyone who was there exactly what they wanted. So she let Wolverine remember his REAL history, instead of creating a new history and letting him remember that.

	I'm sorry, I don't think we're going to agree on this - I don't believe Peter would rather have been married to Gwen, I don't believe Tony would rather not have been an Avenger, and I don't believe Steve wanted to be alone and shunned. (Reply to this) (Parent)
