Looks like Captain America will be giving the Superior Spider-Man his Avengers pink slip this April in the latest MarvelNOW teaser for 2013. Are Slott and Marvel trying to return Spider-Man to his outcast status?

Slott and Ramos this April. Will Spider-Man simply be fired or are The Avengers coming after him? Looking at the progression of Spider-Man, one has to wonder if the entire Doc Ock bodyswap situation is simply a means to return Spider-Man to his loner, outcast status. Prior to Dying Wish, Parker was enjoying unprecedented success as both Peter and Spider-Man which goes against how he's traditionally depicted. Perhaps Ock-Spidey will hit rock bottom just in time for the real Peter Parker to return?
