R.I.P. CAPTAIN AMERICA

ripcap.jpg

So NOW CAPTAIN AMERICA is ‘dead’. Am I the only one who thinks that ‘death’ in superhero comics these days is the new Gold-foil/ Acetate/ Linticular/ Gatefold cover of the day….? I just hope to the stars that this doesn’t do the same damage to the market that those ‘collector’s items’ did. Short term gain forsaking long term growth just doesn’t seem like a great business model to me.

And is there ANYONE who doesn’t think that this stunt will be reversed in short order….? You don’t keep a franchise character like CAPTAIN AMERICA dead long.

OK… I gotta keep it brief… so much to do. Feel free to add your thoughts.

This is Entry 349.
