I want to know what you people think about the deal Parker made with Mephisto. And im NOT asking if it was a good or a bad idea for a story, 'cause it clearly was bad and ruined years of Spider-man's hystory.
Im talking about the choice Parker made. What do you think about it? Is there no excuse for making a deal with the devil or Parker chose a lesser of two evils? Sacrificed his marriage in order to save a life of innocent. Also, how much did Mary Jane influence his decision, because if I remember correctly she insisted on it to happen while Parker told Mephisto to gtfo.
So... do you think he did the right thing or he made a horrible mistake and no longer deserves to be called a hero?
His choice doesn't effect being a hero since it really wasn't one that was a herioc choice or not. I think it was stupid in the sesne that Peter knows enoguh about Mephisto to not trust him with anything, and also the fact that he can't keep May from dying for ever. He should have stayed with MJ and just let life happen. but he had to save her atleast ask someone more credible then Mephisto because i'm honestly surprised she hasn't died anyway yet.

This was the reason i stopped collecting spidey....and it remains to be the reason i dont care about the spidey books at all
I think all the good he has done is enought to keep him labeled a Hero...but i think it was really stupid....any in depth discussion about this topic always comes down to....the writers and Joe Q......i mean really..... the questions about the whys and why nots pertaining to Spidey and MJ...mean squat.....i think the disscussion can not go anywhere if we are to try and look for motives and reasons behind it in the spideyverse...its all in the offices at Marvel i.m.o
He chose to give up his perfect, hot, loving soulmate of a wife for his old wrinkled, close to death aunt...

Didn't Stan Lee establish over a nearly 50 year period that even a slight breeze could kill Aunt May, or did she magically grow younger since 1963?

I do because it was her time, if he was gonna save her should have tried it a different way then making a deal with Mephisto who if this wasn't some scheme to get him back to the classic days by the editors; would have killed her the next few days. Spider-man knows shes old and its gonna happen not to far from now, he shouldn't give up his happiness and love to preserve her life a little longer. He has to come to terms with it eventually and I'm sure she wouldn't have wanted it that way. And once again He probbly sold all three of their souls to Mephisto without even knowing it with that deal.
