I Called It!
7 March 2007 01:05 pmI'm such the proud comic nerd.
Remember THIS recent blog entry?
Now read this this article released today...
Admittedly, I was wrong to some degree since it didn't happen in the last issue of Civil War but instead in issue 25 of Cap's own book.
But the way all the titles crossed-over for this major storyline, the story wasn't going to be over when the last issue hit the stands until all the players finish the story in their own titles.
So, Captain America is dead... Kennedy-ed even.
It's a good thing they recently brought Bucky back.
I wonder why...
(would it be so he can wear the suit and give us a new Captain America?
Let's just say I'm calling it now.)
The thing is, I'm not a Captain America fan. Never have been.
What I think is so interesting is how the message of this story was so driven by today's headlines it couldn't be more obvious what Marvel is trying to say about our country and its current leadership. It's pretty reflective of our times, and to some degree how much story writing in comics has matured over the years.
Someone should write a paper.
