Basically, anyone who started reading Spidey IN THE LAST TWENTY YEARS started reading post-marriage. It's looking to Old Guys, not New Readers for sales.

Here’s hoping one of the mystery projects is SVTU-related. I LOVED MODOK’s 11 so much that I had to hunt down Silencers. It’s a shame that FVL didn’t get Thunderbolts when Fabian left because I’m thinking that’d have been a perfect fit even with the shoehorned Post-CW Suicidebolts direction.

I was ten when I started reading Spider-Man, and he'd already been married for some time by then, and I didn't have a problem relating to him at all. Maybe that's my mutant power: being able to relate to fictional characters whose circumstances do not exactly mirror my own.
