Previous Post In a 2 year span Marvel has: Killed Thor Killed Captain America Turned Iron Man into an A$$ Hole Outed Peter Parker as Spider Man Brought Captain Marvel back to life (so much for dead is dead!) What is the point? This is like car crash television, one "oh crap" moment after another, hoping for something to stick. Don't get me wrong, there is a lot I like - the 1 or 2 issues of the Ultimates each year; Annihilation; or the Sentry mini (which got better as it went along), but why, why, why, why makes all these fundamental changes on - what looks like - a whim?

Trying to recapture the glory years of the mid 90's like when Captain America was dying and needed a suit of armour to keep going, Spider-Man was replaced by his clone, Iron Man was turned into a teenager, Thor was killed during ragornoak and they need a Captain Marv-ell or Marvel running around for the hell of it.

Come on, get a grip. Marvel has done wackey and weird things in the past to tell new stories... guess what... they are going to do wackey and weird things in the now and future to tell new stories.
