Your defense is bringing up the worst era of Spider-Man -- nay, [I]any[/I] -- comics? :P

Y'know, as bad as the Clone Saga and the Symbiote infatuation were, I'll still take 90s Spidey over modern Spidey.  At least back then, he wasn't just a face in a crowd of knockoff webslingers who are all written to be better than him, crashing on Mockingbird's couch because Slott and Bendis decided Mary Jane was better served standing around in the background of Iron Man's book waiting for her turn to pat Riri Williams on the head and tell her how special she is, and being a dopey punching bag for Deadpool.
