A/N: How's it going everyone? It's been a while since I've talked with you and I wanted to bring you a quick update on the sequel to Breaking the Deal.

First off, I have to say that I got the idea from paycheckgurl, so if you've liked what I've done, go ahead and thank her for inspiring me to keep writing the brand new continuity I set up at the end of Breaking the Deal. If you don't like it, then mess with me instead and tell me what an awful job I've done at your discretion.

Second, this is going to be real short, and I almost debated making a whole new chapter to just make this announcement, but I decided that it might be best to have the people who have this story on their alert to pick it up and spread the news. It would also be beneficial to someone who just happens upon this in the updated stories section of the site.

Now to business: The sequel has been started and may even be up by the end of the day. It will be titled Repercussions and will focus on Spider-Man after the events of Breaking the Deal. So far I have the story planned out to a hundred "issues" which will basically be a regular story that you don't have to trade wait for or worry about decompression. As you know, the status quo of Spidey's world has been changed since Aunt May died and his marriage with Mary Jane has been restored, along with his secret identity. This will play a major part in what's to come obviously. Mephisto may have been defeated, but there are many beings waiting to fill in the void left by his disappearance.

Continuity-wise, this will still be taking place as if it were in the regular 616 universe, except for the whole marriage-sold-to-Marvel-Satan deal. Spider-Man is still an Avenger and more than likely I will include elements from what Dan Slott has planned for him as well, as I tend to like his writing.

As most of you know, I was willing to give Joe Quesada and One Moment in Time a chance to see if he could bring effective answers to all the burning questions left behind at One More Day. Like many of you I was sorely disappointed with the delivery. I'm sorry, but magical "love" powered CPR saving Aunt May when medical science has failed is downright stupid. Having Dr. Strange, Mr. Fantastic, and Iron Man being the ones who make the world forget about Peter's identity is okay, but you can't change what you started. If Mephisto made the deal with Peter and MJ, then Mephisto should still be the reason why all that happened. An author's saving throw does not an effective retcon make.

But enough about that. Repercussions is all about bringing Spider-Man back to the basics, without mind boggling retcons and deals with the devil. Expect team-ups galore, the reintroduction of Spider-Man's supporting cast, and hopefully no wall bangers for you to endure. I'm not perfect, but I hope that I can tell a story that most everyone can enjoy.

If you have any questions or comments, just send me a PM and I'll be more than happy to discuss anything with you.

Thanks for all the support,

NKSCF
