Has anyone seen this? It's one of Panini UK's

Sensational Spider-Man #41??? Amazing Spider-Man #545
One More Day. The most loathed Spider-Man story of all time and they consider that definitive reading? |

One More Day. The most loathed Spider-Man story of all time and they consider that definitive reading? the most unpopular Spidey-story there (I've notread OMD, but I know a girl who loves reading Spider-Man and she used to wax eloquent about how horrible OMD was....). Having read the Silver Surfer and Captain America MPs, I can tell you there were both excellent collections, especially ideal for readers new to their respective characters.

I don't get the hate for One More Day. The writers really backed themselves into a corner during the Civil War storyline. Yeah, it was a big cliche to just retcon it, but the issue was really well written and drawn, and I thought the Brand New Day stuff was really well done, kind of cleansed Spider-man and made him start again, introduced new characters and made it feel fresh again.
Not everyone likes it, but I can think of worse stories than One More Day. |

In truth Spidey going public with his identity would actualy have been kind of neat. It would have allowed us to see stories played out on a monthly basis which we could only seen in fan fiction but the writers hardly captalised on it before the mindwipe. Not that they had to go the OMD route there's any number of ways they could make Peter's identity a secret again. One Spider book had Peter deliberately cast doubt in the press that he was Spider-Man and let's not forget the big one - the mind wipe in the end had nothing to do with OMD or the Mephisto deal. One Moment In Time revealed the mind wipe was done by Iron Man and Doctor Strange so the whole idea it was necessary to return to the status quo turned out to be erroneous. Quote:

There are worse stories and OMD is well told for what it is but as a Spider-Man story what it says about the protagonist is shocking. He's willing to sell his marriage to the devil and the long term implications didn't lead to anywhere good.
