Alright, I might be the only geek here that cares, but yesterday the comic hit the stands that brought about the death of a long standing patriotic icon. Captain America aka Steve Rogers...is dead. Shot down on the steps of a courthouse by a sniper. Now, don't get me wrong into thinking I'm one of those guys that can't tell reality from fiction. It's just that as a long time fan, and as a "True Believer" as Stan Lee says, I don't think that this was something that should have been done. He was created in 1941 just as America was entering WW2 as a symbol for the youth of the day to hold to and dream about. A True Hero. That's not something you can say in todays media. all the so called heroes are hardly a step away from th evil they fight. Everyone loves a bad boy. again, I might be the only one here that cares.....:(
 
Nope. They've already issued a statement that he is in fact dead and going to stay that way. The next issue is the autopsy....
 
So what's the purpose of the autopsy and continuing the story if there's no captain america? Is there going to be a new one?
 
They haven't said if someone will take up the shield in future. They are going to do a mini series called "Fallen Son: A world without Captain America". I'm a huge Cap fan and I for one think this sucks.

I still think they'll bring him back somehow. He's too important of an icon to just die from a sniper.

I agree he is to much of an icon and staple to the comic undustry to be dead forever. It might take some time but it will happen, just like they did with Colosus. I just hope that his return is a good story line.

Colosus died? lol I didn't even know. I haven't read American comics in a long time. I read Japanese comics or manga now. Much more entertaining IMO.
