Here is a link to Newsarama’s current interview with Waid and Van Lente about “Red Headed Stranger” and Mary Jane’s return. Here are some important bullet points.
*We will find out who remembers what.
*This isn’t like the Paper Doll arc, Mary Jane is back for good.
*It looks like they’ll be following Roger Stern’s views and using Mary Jane as a complication in Peter’s life.
*Her portrayal will mirror the pre-marriage issues instead of her 90’s and 2000’s stuff according to Van Lente.
Marvel sent over some preview images from the upcoming Spider-Man: Lost Hunt mini-series. What do you think?

Thank you for encouraging me to jump off 600 and never look back. Damn it. Marvel want to buther the character and developments these characters faces just to maintain a status qou or to draw in new readers without giving the middle finger to older fans.
Let’s not forget the famous Quesada Divas comment.
They want to give us EVERYTHING but what we want…
“Her portrayal will mirror the pre-marriage issues instead of her 90’s and 2000’s stuff according to Van Lente.”
What’s so “Brand New Day-ish” about that?
I shall continue to not support this book. And as always, they’ll continue to cancel any book they’re doing EXCEPT this one.
In the words of Marty McFly, “Perfect. Just perfect.” The party girl? Give me a f’in break! Bad idea, Van. REALLY bad idea. MJ’s grown since that tired old shell. Please rethink this before it goes to print. You’re ruining the character. DAMN YOU QUESADA!
Oh my god get a freaking EED, they are KILLING MJ! Peter and MJ are supposed to be the perfect couple, NOT “aware of eachothers flaws”! Unless they play the “MJ cares about Peter but knows he wont stop being Spidey” card (which is just under the Freak card in my deck…) its not even going to be herself anymore.
Miles, for all we know, she may not be able to lift herself from that couch without eating table.
I see Mj is back to her wavy 90S(mcfarlane athough looks more how bagely drew it) hair instead of the straight down romita hair. Is that guy in the picture in that cover is Peter, look too much of a bad boy snice drawn by scott campell, maybe is whatever douche celeb she’s banging.
That’s one curvy MJ.
How has she not broken in half yet?
Answers about OMD only a year and a half later, why not be really cool and wait a whole decade? At least the cover is pretty.
Well I’ve changed my mind. I’m not buying this issue.
yeah, I wonder they going to have her back in her party girl form which she supposly grew out of and mature or have her sleeping around with the current hotrod celeb douche. I like Fred and Mark but I’m wondering how marvel going to buthcer her character.
