Unless this is part of a big "Peter learns a lesson" storyline which includes a "Peter goes to extraordinary, heroic lengths to do the right thing" scene, then yes, it's poor.

His webshooters have either jammed or run out in every single issue - no, literally, in EVERY SINGLE ISSUE, if not two or three times PER issue - of BND, and when asked by fans at a panel when Peter "will finally start showing some smarts again," editor Steve Wacker said, "Well, really, what WE prefer to show is Peter making MISTAKES."

Wacker is the same guy whose entire summary of how he perceives Peter is, and here I quote, "He's the guy who messes up and annoys everyone around him, more and more, until they finally just start yelling at him, like Jonah always does."
