Are Marvel's top heroes actually that newer? With the exception of Deadpool, the Marvel heroes with movies were created 30-70 years ago. Deadpool's not even that new. We're 20 years out from his creation.
Getting readers to back new heroes is tough. Look at the titles from the New52 that have been cancelled. For the most part, they starred dramatically new versions of existing properties. The same is true for Marvel. Compare Avengers Academy's sales numbers vs. any other 616 comic with Avengers in the title.
And another thing, out of all the Spider-Man comics out there, this is the one you chose to burn? Have you never heard of Howard Mackie? Or The Clone Saga? Or One More Day? Or Chapter One? Or The Gathering of the Five? Or Sins Past?!?
