The Four Color Media Monitor

The Cleveland Plain Dealer gushes over the fourth Civil War issue, and sugarcoats the golden calf of death, which turns up in here too:

Issue four is a turning point when one of Cap's crew is killed in a battle. How Marvel is going to end this series and restore some kind of order and trust in the superhero universe is beyond me.

Barring the convenient excuse of mind control (which is certainly possible), there is no way that these folks could ever trust one an other after the smoke clears.

Meanwhile, it's one of the most fascinating story lines to come out of Marvel in years.

Please, do spare us that sleazy approach, because it certainly does not work on me. I have no interest in this dud, and even less interest in if a member of either side's been slain. Deaths are not something to celebrate or even worth using as a selling point anymore. In fact, they shouldn't have ever been so in the first place.
