Spider Man and Joe Q...

Thomas Deja hits Spidey and Joe Q right on the head with his latest Scrimmages.

As long as Marvel has multiple imprints, why couldn't one of them show us an aging Peter Parker who has a wife, kids, and a mortgage? They can still tell the teenage ansty Spidey stories in one of the other prints.

C'mon there are stories there to be told.

Does your home insurance cover when a supervillain crashes through your big bay window?

...if you are on his back beating the crap out of him after he just robbed a bank down the street.

How do you explain to the in-laws that you missed Christmas dinner because you were battling a terrorist who could shoot electric bolts out of his ass in Times Square?

When your son or daughter gets into the "my dad could beat up your dad" fights at school, what do you do when he/she reveals your secret identity?

Hmmm. I think there are a plethora of stories that could be told about a SpiderMan who is growing up and becoming responsible.
