[QUOTE="C A Iversen, post: 105106"] Well, to be honest this is the kind of cheap gimmick that comic writers have to resort to when people stop reading. A lot of stories are top-knotch stuff, but end up suffering due to many other poorly written stories or as fans drift from the so called "childish" world of comic books due to the image being associated with children or nerdishness. It seems that there is a cycular interest in comics though, with people coming back to them in droves every ten years or so and then gradually fans slip away as plot and continuity get ever more convoulted. Its a shame really as when the genre is on fire it is as entertaining as anything other fiction written. Its a shame Captain America is a scapegoat for the sorry state of some of todays comic books.
