The idea that they already had something the lines of "One More Day" in the works and that the intervening story arc(s) were intended to drive home the idea that Sticking to 1970's Formula Scripting is DoublePlusGood and thereby set the stage for training the readers to want an "OMD" storyline...

(Wishing I could remember exactly where I read that allegation!)

Well, whatever their reasoning, I thought the storyline for Peter Parker and his family during the events of the Civil War was wonderful. I loved them being at Avengers tower; I love the way they were writing Mary Jane and Aunt Mary; and I just wish that had continued. In the Marvel universe, there are any number of ways to bring Aunt May back to life - or not to kill her in the first place.
