Spidey and Carlie break-up
They were okay together, but not the best. The whole Spidey tattoo thing was my favorite bit from their time together.
It's about time, I'll say.Peter Parker and Carlie Cooper broke up in ASM #673. Does anybody care?

agreed with both.
now we just need to keep him single or at least away from Mary Jane
@danhimself: why do they flirt in the comics do they have good chemistry or do you just have a fantasy
I liked Carlie and Peter together. Again, not the BEST relationship, because how rushed it kinda felt (multiple writers during BND) but I still liked it. I liked how Carlie appreciated Peter for all his geekiness, I liked the parallel-ness between the two (both fight crime), and I really liked the Trust issue.
SI was a great event, that ended with a slight bad taste in my mouth. I thought the dialogue between the two was well done but Peter forgetting about Carlie? His girlfriend? Riiiiiigght...
But this breakup can lead to many interesting scenarios. Carlie, one of the first few surviving characters from the start of BND, probably wont be thrown away after this issue. She probably will still stay in her apartment in New York and serve in the Police force. It'll be very awkward seeing Carlie and Spidey work together to bring down crime after Carlie discovered the Peter was Spidey... It'll probably hinder the process of tracking criminals efficiently with Carlie unable to come to terms that Peter had lied to her for so long. Can they get back together?... It's possible. They have been hinting at it since the start of BND and this break up may allow Slott to develop her better without being rushed. But then again, most people prefer MJ, MJ is more popular, MJ is more hot (debatable), MJ and Peter are the best couples (again, debatable), and bla bla bla.
So we can also just see Carlie be that support character who eventually becomes friends (just friends) with Peter again, and help him fight crime.
So to answer your question... yeah, i do care :P

No, she dumped him after figuring out he was Spider-man.
The reason she was able to figure it out is because Pete did a broadcast to Spider-Island to motivate the good people to fight back, and this weakened Dr. Strange's spell to the point where no one will remember his ID, buut they can once again figure it out.
Meh. She started to grow on me, but one of those last moments between Spidey and MJ (if you read it, you know what I'm talking about) made me remember why MJ and Pete need to be together.
Thus confirming my long standing suspicion that she's a giant b****@FadeToBlackBolt said:

To be fair, she was sick of people always being fake with her (Lily being the biggest one, but then her own father and then Pete).
But I get what you're saying. :P

@EvilAndy:
oddly enough i tried to ignore it and keep going too. I read through the gauntlet and grim hunt when i first started reading comics and i loved that stuff, but then one moment in time happened which was basically a punch to the groin for me. It wasnt enough that quesada had his way with the character, he had to keep rubbing it in my face about it. Thats when i realized that my 3.99 was better spent elsewhere.

Punch to the groin is about right. I picked up OMIT in the deluded hope that they'd seen the error of their ways with OMD and were setting things right, so I feel your pain.
@EvilAndy:
For about 2 panels it looked like that was going to happen, till he weakened mj as a character again :(
This is the mary jane I want to see, not necessarily with powers although it was cool but a strong, independent woman to keep petey grounded. I'd like to see them back together again!

That's why they were so good together. The writers just didn't know how to write relationships.
HONESTLY I AM SAD THEY BROKE UP I REALLY LIKED HER ,i mean she was right under Gwen as favorite girls for peter. i hope they get back together but take it slower next time.i just hope he doesn't get back together with mj because she always felt like the Daphne (from Scooby-Doo) of the marvel universe i mean she is kinda useless. all mj ever does is get mad at pete and wants him to stop being spider man and complain. Atleast Carlie is a cop( so she has detective skills) and could put two and two together that peter is spider man. i think people want mj back to fill are own fantasies of dating a model or we are used to those old relationships like superman and Lois ( we just fear change). so please bring back Carlie because M.j is old and boring.
Eh, she was okay. I liked Black Cat more. But hey, now ther'es a chance for him to hook up with Ivy!
(Loud boos are heard as tomatoes, beer bottles and garbage is thrown at SpideyIvyDaredevilFan26)
For those saying no Spidey till OMD is eliminated, I'd say it's practically back to the way it was before, just without MJ and Peter together. I'd really like to see either Peter get back with MJ, or get with Ms. Marvel. I never really liked Carlie, she seemed... not a very developed character to me, not independent, just "Peter's current girl" so glad they're apart, but it was a harsh break up!
