I don't like Joe Quesada. There are a few reasons for this, the foremost being that as editor in chief he has made decisions ever. I am not just talking about "one more day" but we'll get to that later.
The main decision he has made that pissed most people off is that he banned smoking in marvel stories. Normally I would of been okay with this because the reason was that his father died of lung cancer but his explaination was that the younger readers might be influenced by smoking. What?! When you have characters that can hack people apart with claws you expect them to be influenced by smoking. I'm sure younger readers know that they can't do things like that in real life and can make there own decisions.
The dude is the most egotistical person I've ever seen. I watched someone at comic con ask him why marvel needed to revert Spider-man back to the same style as older stories and he started talking about sales and how it is the essence of Peter Parker. This is rubbish because when JMS started on the book giving Peter a little happiness sales trippled.
The biggest reason people hate him is probably one more day. If you ever want to read this please don't. It is complete bullshit. The most contrived peace of garbage ever written. Joe Quesada has complained about the marriage since day one but to have spidey make a deal with Mephisto because a divorce could effect younger readers is too stupid for words. Some people say that JMS wrote this not Quesada but JMS said that his work had been twisted so much that he wanted his name off it.
Thanks for reading.It will be interesting to see what Axel Alonso does in the infamous chair. Whether you agree or disagree comments are always welcome.
P.S. Sorry but I have been wanting to do this rant for years so please don't moan because it's a little late
