| That's ridiculous! How dumb can Marvel be? I've been out of reading comics for a while, but I can't imagine such a move makes good business sense. My generation grew up reading Silver Age comics and now that we're a bunch of geezers, we're going to be on a nostalgia trip like those before us...looking for those things that remind us of when we were young. Sure, thing's aren't as 'patriotic' as they were a few years ago, but this is hardly the Viet Nam War, and Cap made it through that alright. One thing's for sure - NOTHING is final in comics - they can hit Reset anytime they want...and do so quite regularly. | |

| I cannot say that I am surprised, but a sad day indeed for comic book heroes when they kill off one of the greatest.

| A sniper? What the hell is that? All you need to kill Captain America is a gun with a scope on it?

| He'll come back. I'd only be surprised if they brought Bucky and Gwen Stacy back with him.
