Given the controversy with the Mary Jane casting in Spiderman what were your thoughts on the Spiderman marriage?

I agree with my colleague Elana. Full stop. 

As for the Spiderman marriage, I’m a firm believer in Claremontian organic character growth. People graduate high school all the time, they get married all the time, they retire all the time. Trying to freeze characters in particular ages/life stages is a guaranteed formula for stagnation and impactless storytelling. 

And while I’m at it, the D.C philosophy of no happy relationships ever represents a stunted and abhorrent view of humanity, let alone maturity.
