Previous Post Cap is probably my all-time favorite Marvel character, but once we knew it was happening and 'had happened,' the best we could do is hope that the issue is outstandingly and repsectfully written. And I thought it was; you didn't. I seriously doubt it will ast for very long. And in The Iniative, Carol Danvers told Spider Woman Cap wasn't dead, but was being cared for by SHIELD. Why? Who knows?

According to Burbaker and Brevoort, it's just a swerve. Captain America is dead. Ms. Marvel said what she said as a way to trap Spider-Woman, and the repurcussions of the MM/SW encounter will be seen in upcoming issues of NEW AVENGERS, while the reactions to Cap's death continue on in CAPTAIN AMERICA #26-33, a nine-part storyline. The question is....who will be the new Captain America? Likely Bucky/Winter Soldier, but we'll see. In any case, I hope Winter Soldier finds the Red Skull and his cronies and wipes them all out. I haven't even read the issue yet, and I already hate the Red Skull more than I already had.
