Okay, yeah, the dialogue was the one thing that bothered me a bit too. As Pro pointed out, it's too "Bendish." On the other hand, a lot of people seem to like that kind of stuff so I wasn't sure if that was what Halo was referring to.

As far as JMS goes, I think he raises some very valid points. On the other hand, the guy that gave us Spider Totems, Peter eating someone's head and Gwen's rapidly aging bastard children (not to mention, I think, Aunt May in Iron Man armor) really has no right to bitch about wildly illogical plots in Spiderman books.
