A whole raft of problems are unleashed by organic webshooters. Steve ( most likely) took a look at how spiders produce webbing, and saw it would not be at all convenient for the development of the character. Too many questions, like where in his body does he store all this fluid? How fast does he produce it? What happens if he runs out? Not to mention why the "shooters" are at the ends of his arms, not where they are on real spiders. (Add to this that spiders do not "shoot" their webbing, they play it out slowly.)

These were questions the Sam Raimi movies "solved" by ignoring them. Movie audiences, after all, tend not to ask such questions. Call a guy "Spider-Man" and have him walk thru walls, and most civilians wont even blink.

To be fair, Mr. Byrne, didn't a lot of your best runs of Marvel/DC Comics start with a premise of "Change is Good!"

•• Let's take these one at a time, shall we?

The Hulk and Bruce Banner get separated.

•• And that was intended to be permanent? No.

Namor uses the wealths of the oceans to become a major mogul.

•• Which he'd done before, with Stan and Jack at the helm.

Superman's origins from Krypton through Smallville through Metropolis get changed and over hauled.

•• Which had happened many times before and since, and didn't change the character.

She-Hulk becomes a break-the-fourth-wall style of comedy book.

•• Which didn't change the character.

And so on...

•• Such as?

Reasonable comparisons, right?

•• You seem to think so. There's the problem in a nutshell.
