Bret closes at 8PM. 4 guys came in after I did all wanting CAPTAIN AMERICA 25.<BR/><BR/>I don't think they cared about the book. I think they just wanted to sell it on eBay. <BR/><BR/>Sad.<BR/>Then I saw the report on the local news that night.<BR/>Sad.<BR/>Then I read the Initiative # 1<BR/>[I wished I hadn't even bought the thing]<BR/>In that book Ms. Marvel either lies or is speaking the truth and it's a book scheduling thing.<BR/>Ms. Marvel tells Spider Woman that Cap Is NOT dead. That he is on ice somewhere healing. <BR/><BR/>Marvel, have you no shame?<BR/><BR/>Alan - JettBlackBerryXAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15624230.post-66462668167346298482007-03-11T13:40:00.000-04:002007-03-11T13:40:00.000-04:00What's the point of all of this?

Are Marvel and DC really that stuck for ideas, inspiration (and sales) that they have to kill off or retire a character every now and then for a tasty bit of coverage.<BR/><BR/>I remember when they "fired" Cap the first time around (when I actually used to read comic books avidly), and when they "retired" Spider-man, "broke" Batman's back and "killed off" Superman.<BR/><BR/>This bloodlust schtick is as blatant as the endless multiple covers Marvel used to whip out back in the early 90s (remember when X-Men #1 was issued with something like 6 different covers? ug!)<BR/><BR/>Then again, perhaps I'd have a different opinion if I still read Marvel...:(Poptiquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00446061540234057323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15624230.post-52184942875914177132007-03-08T14:47:00.000-05:002007-03-08T14:47:00.000-05:00This is a sad day for Steve Rogers as Captain Amer...This is a sad day for Steve Rogers as Captain America fans.
