It'd be like one of those cereal commercials where there would be a "diverse" cast comprised of a white boy with a baseball cap, a blonde girl, a black kid, and some other random minority, like a mexican or asian kid. Then they'd chase down the guy that shot cap'n america and force feed him cereal till he goes into a diabetic coma.

I expect the show to end or go the way of Lost before that happens.

Captain Homeland Security?

Captain Coalition!

If they're looking for a modern version of Cap, isn't that what Patriot is?

If you kill off Captain America, the terrorists win.

...wait.

Ah, crap.

I'm telling you, he ain't dead until Tony Stark buries him in a tarp and chains.

My answer is hopefully long enough so that we can harass the super power he would generate by spinning in his grave via a giant motor.

I definately think if he comes back it just cheapens the whole thing. Didn't care for it with superman, care for it less here.

Dracomax · Post by **Dracomax** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 5:15 pm

well, with superman, they planned to have him come back in the next issue, it being about the sixth time he had died.

however, it being a slow news day, it got incredible buzz, not unlike captain america, and they spun it out over a year with some brilliant improvision.

Heh, it's so true. And with the wheelchair kid, you'd get Extreme Ghostbusters. I actually liked that show by the way.

I'm disappointed that I came up with this before Nervous Spy did.

I'm just plain disappointed.

A superhero funeral from Alan Moore's "Top Ten," as read by the Preacher. Yes. THAT Preacher. The comic was very fond of cameos.

"And so, merciful Lord, accept this, our science-sister into thy bosom...until such time as, in thy infinite wisdom, she may be cloned, reincarnated, or otherwise revived."

I want to vote for "I don't care if Captain America is alive or dead, it has zero impact on my life."

That should be an option.

you say that now, but when Red Skull takes over you'll be singing a different tune!
