(Reason for not posting in the other Civil War thread is so that I wont get anything spoiled).

I am planing on downloading and reading Civil War as they are being released in the US (reason being that I don't think Norway will start selling the Civil War. However before starting on the actual Civil War (once it is released) I would like to know if there are any comics that leads to the Civil War that I should try to read first? Like all the Infinite Crisis Tie-ins DC had. Thanks in advance.

Morridini, could you upload the Civil War onto here as each 1 comes out? Or can you tell me what site you use to download comics?

I use a P2P program called DC++. U enter different hubs and download directly from users all over the world, the downside with this is that the great hubs require u to share a big amount of stuff, like 50+GB. But one comic once a month (or each second month?) can I easily handle to upload. However I think it is frowned upon by the mods to post links in threads.

No, I don't think so...

well bumptybump for some ontopic answers.

All of the tie-ins so far have the phrase "Road to Civil War" at the top. The only "tie-in" I've read so far has been Illuminati, which was pretty good. I can't help you read them, though... sorry.

If you go to Marvel.com, they have a checklist of everything you need to get the full story.

Hmmm this doesn't really apply to the topic that much, but does anyone else think Genis might of been killed off recently because thunderbolts are involved in the storyline, and he may of been too powerful of an individual to be on any team.

I would not want any Genis fan to think I got rid of him because I don't like the character, just the opposite, I liked him too much to be a party to his continued misery.

Validus knows more about the story behind that quote since he was the one that posted it. But it doesn't sound like Genis was killed off because he was to powerful for the civil war event.

It's a possibility, he was becoming a bit too overpowered though, don't you think?

Not really. Look at Zemo now, he's pretty uber.
