@Evan: I didn’t even notice that. Nice catch.
@Matt: Yeah, Wein was continuing where Conway left off with their relationship, but threw a few hurdles in there that started to complicate things. It’s interesting to think about.
Boy I can see what Gerry Conway had left after his first run end with Amazing 149 (volume 1). Other writers were left with the on and off and mostly unknown relationship between Peter and Mary Jane.

Wow, Felicia has nearly the same response in Panel of the Day #580. No wonder Peter was always torn between them.
