As usual with comics, they've left a big fat plot hole with plenty of wiggle room for the inevitable resurrection in a couple of years, but this one pisses me off because there seems to be absolutely no reason for it besides "we felt like it."
At least when they killed off Cap a few years it meant something; the whole Civil War arc was a metaphor for crap like the PATRIOT Act, so killing someone who literally embodied old-fashioned American values like liberty, freedom, equality, and democracy was all but inevitable. But this? Especially when they just rebooted Spidey as teenage Peter Parker in the movies?
