DarthSion101 Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Marvel needs to get away from the charcaters like Captain America, that were popular during WWII, because of the on going war, and focus on a more modern bunch, say Moon Knight, Deadpool, Wolverine, etc etc. Some super hero's like Spiderman, and the fantastic four have been better able to adapt to the changing times, and more modern aspect of the comic universe, others like Captain America, and Superman(although not a marvel being) seem to be trapped in the 40's and 50's. At least by dropping the useless Captain MArvel can put some more time into developing other characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aash Li Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 lol Captain Canada. xD So... umm... does anyone see some sort of political commentary on killing off Capt. America? Or is it just me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentScope001 Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 So... umm... does anyone see some sort of political commentary on killing off Capt. America? Or is it just me... Yes. For gun contorl. "This death shows that GUN CONTORL LAWS ARE NEEDED in this dangerous era! Capitan America was shot last night by his girlfriend with a sniper. Now, the girlfriend did not want to kill Capitan America, but she was insane and used the sniper anyway. What would happen if the girlfriend did not have a sniper? Then she would be unable to kill Capitan America, duh! She would be committed to the mental insitution, and Capitan America would be saved. This proves that people don't kill people, guns kill people! Including superheroes! If we don't ban guns, then a man might accidently KILL off everyone. This is an symbolic act...for if we do not contorl guns, then we destroy America accidently, just like Cpt. America's mistress accidently killed off Cpt. America! We now return you to your normally broadcasted comics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MdKnightR Posted March 12, 2007 Author Share Posted March 12, 2007 lol Captain Canada. xD So... umm... does anyone see some sort of political commentary on killing off Capt. America? Or is it just me... Oh definitely! Regardless of how lame people here think that Cap was, he did stand for liberty and freedom. His death is just a commentary on how the rights of the common man have been diminished in our day. But it is our own doing. As long as we sit there and not vote our conscience and have our say about our country, the government will continue to get more and more corrupt until the day it destroys itself. Our rights are being whittled away right under our ignorant noses. I'm afraid to say that the USA may start to resemble England in the movie "V" for Vendetta if we don't start taking it back to a government of the People, by the People, and for the People.

We now return you to your normally broadcasted comics. lmao! Please tell me this wasnt serious? If so these writers need to pull their head out of their fantasy worlds. Gun control isnt going to stop crime... if his girlfriend didnt have a gun, she would have used a gun she bought from the black market, or used a knife, a fork, a spoon, a sharpened stick, poison, a vehicle, or simply pushed the bugger off a tall building. Remember, controlling guns only takes guns out of the hands of law abiding citizens. What do you think a criminal bent on shooting people is going to do if he cant get one from a store? Hell buy them from some one/place else instead. Criminals arent going to stop using guns just because a govt. banned them, theyre criminals! *shakes her head* Marvel Comics: Smoking pot since the 60s. *cough* sorry for the rant... well not really, but you know what I mean I think.. :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentScope001 Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 lmao! Please tell me this wasnt serious? Wasn't serious at all. EDIT: As for the girlfriend, you see, if the girlfriend had no gun, she had to go and attack Cpt. America in a fist-fight or in meele combat. Cpt. America would be able to beat up her girlfriend, or at least subdue her in meele combat...but guns are lethal. Nothing can stop them.[/scarsam] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negative Sun Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 True, it's not that hard to use a spoiler tag after all. For the record, I heard it here first too, not that I mind, but I know some people might... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
