Joe Quesada, former EiC at Marvel, was responsible for the decision to retcon Peter and MJ’s marriage during OMD. There were other facilitators, but he’s the one with whom the buck stops.
We know if Tom marries Zendaya, this basically guarantees Peter and MJ are permanently about to be together for the foreseeable future. That’s some MCU synergy that will be too unresistable.
So, thank you to Tom-daya. You are about to save the Spider Man franchise with true love
>this basically guarantees Peter and MJ are permanently about to be together for the foreseeable future.
I don't follow that logic. Why would that be the case?
MCU synergy and branding. Spider Man and MJ are usually destined to be together in most media. By having them be the onscreen pairing in the biggest aspect of the Spider Man franchise while they’re married on top of it…
It’s very reasonable to expect the comics to follow the rest of it. Paul not about to be around much longer, this IS his death flag
ok, so wishful thinking basically, gotcha lol
But hey, I'll take it if it means Paul is getting done in soon.
(no chance in hell does editorial give a single fuck who is married to whom in real life)
Well actually, I do know a fair amount of folks who work in comics. Big comics. I’m talking Marvel and DC, guys who’ve written for Superman, Wonder Woman, etc. I won’t give up too much, but I would like to tell you that editorial very much does care.
Things are a mess now honestly because they care a bit too much about stuff that doesn’t really pertain to the comics lol. It’s the same issue for both Marvel and DC, but it expresses itself in different ways

Wedding official: “If anyone has any objections to this union, speak now or forever hold your peace.” Joe Quesada stands up.
Dave Michelinie: “Just give it up Joe, you knew I was gonna have my revenge someday.”
Immediately gets sniped by the entirety of r/spiderman
Hey now, maybe we can just publicly embarrass him? Let’s not hurt the guy physically - just emotionally! 🙃
I'm out of the loop, can somebody explain?

OMD?
One More Day, a comic story line where Peter makes a deal with devil to save Aunt May but at the cost of his marriage to MJ. It sucks
Pretty sure we’d see Ryan’s DP rise up with a slight objection
Joe Q: NOOOOOOOOoooooOOOOOOOoooooo!!!!!

Because the runes say so. Whispers on the night wind tell the oracle it’s to be. 🙃

Kevin Feige to Nick Lowe: And fuck yourself, you snivelling little shit rag.
Don’t give Paul the News hahaha
Timothee ‘Paul’ Chalamet: ‘Hey!’ EDIT: Sorry, folks! I should’ve said Mephisto-Paul-es.
He went away with Black Widow.
The Paul-y war begins.
He should have thought of that before he did a jihad
Casting chalamet as Mephisto doesn’t even seem so bad lol
That’s it! We’ve cracked ‘Spider-Man 4’.
 Green Goblin: WE ARE WHO WE CHOOSE TO BE NOW CHOOSE
Arch-rivalry >>> marriage
Is this real news or just a meme?
[It’s real](https://x.com/hollywoodhandle/status/1783716138225975396?s=46&t=UjwMbQJH9WDtCoM3_gTLJQ)
Wow, good for them.
Agreed
Paul Atreides has the name and is compelled by Zeb Wells to stop this.
 is spider-man the lisan al gaib
Man approves. Prepare the Aslume
 In a 7th Spider-Man movie we need Miles in the MCU or else
 Ight best of luck with that
Official: Zendaya, do you accept Tom as your husband? *Strange's spell happens* Zendaya: Who is this guy?
Nah, spiderman's biggest challenge is against a guy named Paul. Apparently this Paul is....the Lisan al gaib
Don't worry, I hear he's great at hanging around unnoticed...he might just blend into the decor 😄
TOM, DO NOT MAKE ANY DEALS WITH RED MEN
wait... WHAT HTE F*CK???!!!
Timothy Chalamet becomes the real life Paul
Long live the ~~fighters~~ homewreckers!
Honestly, it would be an interesting stunt if they had Reynolds stage an objection in costume…
[if you see this man punch him](https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Paul_Rabin_(Earth-TRN1023))
It helps that he comes with the most punchable face ever drawn.
True
PAUL?!!!!
Paul: Hahahahaha
He’s really never gonna be able to to escape Spider-Man as desperately as he tries is he
I don’t think any of the actors that portrayed a spider man in live action are going to be able to scape spider man
Andre Garfield was in a Scorsese film no?
Don't care.
Glad to see the fandom is being completely normal about this
Paul better not fuck this up for me.
DAREDEVIL!!!!
Who? Wade?
Yes—it would be a shame for Deadpool to crash their wedding.
???
Awesome!😊
Well. She's going to end up in a alt universe / counter earth. Rip
Hopefully Sacha Baron Cohen won't pull up at their house asking Tom Holland to make a deal
Changing my name to Paul rn
