− | '''Linkara (v/o):''' So, one of the problems with a book like this is that, like other events before it, a single narrative is thrown out because it's such a big event that affects so many people that they don't really have time for character development. I mentioned them ''trying'' to pay lip some service to characters feeling things about all this, but honestly, most of it is the heroes punching each other or complaining about having to punch each other. As I have pointed out before, Spider-Man leaves the pro-Registration side in issue 5. Why is he doing so? Well, they kind of hint at it earlier in "Civil War" itself, but the actual reasoning for why he finally decides to leave happens in ''his own damn series''. So, suddenly, Iron Man and Spider-Man are facing off against each other, with some damage done to the Tower as if they were just fighting. It's just ''there''. And then he's suddenly being hunted down for no reason. There really isn't any reason, because he hasn't actually broken the law. Oh, sure, you could probably say him assaulting Iron Man is like that, except I doubt Tony would be pressing charges. The thing is... ''Peter registered! He followed the law!'' He even admits he has no problem working for S.H.I.E.L.D. It's the same thing with Maria Hill and Cap. He has no problem with the Registration in and of itself, just that he'd really like to ''not'' hunt down people who risk their lives being superheroes, ''and shove them in the Negative Zone!'' But this is just more and more frustrating, because I'm not |
