marvel suicide
i think marvel is committing suicide, character wise. I mean, from the looks of it, they are killing off a bunch of them through "the end" books, along with the avengers massacre, and "Venom vs Carnage" is supposedly the end of both those characters. Is marvel killing off all of their main characters in hopes that "ultimate marvel" will become the main story for all of them from now on???

i dunno maybe they are creating comic books on how they will all die. i think it will past soon. but if it doesnt it looks like DC will be back as the top selling comic book industry.

nothing could be worse for marvel than acts of vengeance, the clone saga, and the overuse of apocalypse.

I think the best thing would be a good old fasioned company crossover. Have Mephisto, Belasco, The Beast of Revalations (leader of the Hand) and Azazel pool their forces and empower Typhiod Mary as the new Goblyn Queen. Then do Inferno on a global scale. Have some marvel shattering events- I recommend the returns of psylock (who's soul is apparantly imprisoned by a demon), and Jean Grey, the deaths of Proffessor X, Magneto (for real this time), Punisher (permanently), Elektra, the kingpin, Havok, Polaris, Bullet, Ammo, Milla Donovan, Sister Maggie, and Bushwacker. End it all with a heroic, massive battle between a beast fused Mary and Daredevil inside some enormous flame before she sacrifices Baby Karen (incarnation of Stick) to create hell on earth. Finish the comic with Mary's tragic death and wedding bells for DD and Black widow, and Siryn and Deadpool.
hellooooo eisner.

Marvel committing suicide? Are you kidding, they just re-wrote their book policies so Austen would leave. He's signing over as an exclusive for DC now. Who's going to prosper from this? Oh yeah. lol
Fiscally, Marvel is doing the best it has been in a long time. As far as all of these character deaths, I think most of it is a kind of Marvel Heroes ReLoad. Like they did with the X-Books. Their vision of what sells and what should sell is a little eskew. An ongoing Rogue book is retarded. A Rogue mini-series is okay. Everyone gets a mini-series at some point. Remember the 80's? Mini-series' galore! After Busiek's run, they let the Avengers slowly decay, as their (would-be) flagship title, that was a huge mistake. Now, with big name Bendis on it, and a promise of a massive reboot, I would hazard a guess to say it's selling a lot better now.
And I'm glad to see them give less big-name but great writers awesome chances. Priest, Cap and Falcon for life! It's a great title, but then again, it raises questions, is Cap becoming a superfluous character? I think they should end his current series just to prevent an overexposure and create less continuity problems. That's my 2 cents for now.
