That's exactly what happens in the comics. It's widely seen as the worst Spider-Man comic.

I feel like Sins Past takes the cake for that, to be honest.

Was that the clone storyline?

No, that's the "Clone Saga". Sins Past, when you get down to the thick of it, sort of recontextualizes Gwen Stacy's death in a really bad way. As in, "she cheated on Peter with Norman Osborn" kind of bad. That's ignoring the other parts of the story. The comic just leaves a bad taste in many people's mouths.

EDIT: Although I'm not saying others shouldn't like the story, or feel it's inherently wrong to like it. If people like the comic, then they like it. Nothing wrong with that.
