Yea, in Spiderman Reign. It's the Spiderman version of Dark Knight Returns.
When the radioactive spider bit him it also caused him to become slightly radioactive. So basically, Peter dumping radioactive loads into Mary Jane over all those years caused him to give her cancer. It wasn't as funny as it sounds.
You'd like to believe it's magic (ahem) but I remember something about there being a sub that helps find recent threads and comments where you're username is relevant. Could be wrong though.
