** You know the Marvel event comic ComicBook/CivilWar where Iron Man and Reed Richards fought their friends and locked them up in an extradimensional prison without trial so that super heroes would have to register, making them known and having them be accountable? Well, in this comic they team up with Dr. Strange to make everyone in the world forget who Spidey is, meaning he doesn't have to be held accountable for his superhero actions. And yes, this pretty much goes against the base principle what they fought the Civil War for in the first place.

In case you're wondering about the other ''ComicBook/BrandNewDay'' changes that were explained outside of ''OMIT'': Harry turned out to have been [[HesJustHiding just hiding]]. Jackpot wasn't Comicbook/MaryJaneWatson, but [[RedHerring someone else entirely who looked like her]]. And Peter's organic webbing and some other newer powers were explained by WordOfGod to be unavailable, either due to PowerIncontinence or they're part of a HeroicSafeMode.

This is especially ironic, as the original story retconned Spider-Man's unmasking in Civil War, which he explicitly said wouldn't be undone "via magic retcon".
-->'''Creator/JoeQuesada:''' By agreeing to MJ’s terms, Mephisto has actually wiped himself from ever having been involved in their lives. In fact, looking at it linearly, those four issues never happened. Along with the wedding, "One More Day" and Mephisto have been wiped out of continuity and Peter and MJ never made that bargain.
** As of 2017, the story itself might not be canon anymore, since Mephisto still remembers his deal with Spider-Man in ''Spider-Man/Deadpool''

* DidYouJustScamCthulhu: Quesada's current explanation is that Mary Jane ''did'' without even trying; somehow by her ExactWords the nonexistence of the marriage means Mephisto has nothing to steal and he won't meddle with the Parkers again.
* DerailingLoveInterests: Mary Jane, see the page quote.
* ForWantOfANail: Comicbook/{{Mephisto}} undoes Peter and MJ's marriage by unlocking all the doors of a police car holding a recently captured criminal who swore payback on Spider-Man and his arresting officer both. After escaping, he tracks down the officer in an assassination attempt Spider-Man tries to thwart. Peter ends up suffering a blow to the head in the scuffle, leaving him too groggy to make it to the wedding on time.
* HateFic: Both ''ComicBook/OneMoreDay'' and ''ComicBook/OneMomentInTime'' are essentially responses to "The Wedding!" (''Amazing Spider-Man'' Annual #21) which Quesada outright hates. In OMIT, he does it by taking panels from the original and then showing how Peter missed his wedding, which is essentially a blackly comedic slapstick moment where a random thug hits Peter on the head with a brick making him pass out. Mark Ginocchio pointed out why this was bad practice:
--> "As hyperbolic as this might sound, by inserting original pages from ASM Annual #21 into a new comic that changes the events of those pages, Quesada and Rivera are essentially vandalizing one of the most historic Spider-Man issues of the modern era...Ultimately, the creative decision reads like it’s supposed to punch the reader in the gut — here’s what happened EXACTLY AS YOU REMEMBERED IT, but now we’re going to change it because we think what [[Creator/JimShooter Shooter]] did was a mistake."

The {{Retcon}} supposedly only erased the fact that Peter and MJ got married, but ''everything else'' is supposed to have happened as it was printed. That includes the fact that Peter and MJ almost had a daughter out of marriage! And they were both ''thrilled'' about it. And then ''utterly devastated'' when MJ had a miscarriage.

''ComicBook/OneMomentInTime'' was not received any better than ''One More Day'' was. Besides dredging up bad memories of the original story and continuing the various anti-marriage themes, it also angered fans by casting Mary Jane as a FixerSue, making her the one responsible for the dissolution of the relationship.
