America ...I'm still reading that Brubaker Capt. America series, I just finished a part of that Winter Solider arc. I have to say though, I never followed Capt. in the early days. I was prone to be more all over the map, and never stuck with any one book or character. We as kids had everything from Hot Stuff, Archie, Superman, Batman, to Marvel & DC, and so on--I was a kid and never had much free spending money, though me and my siblings had a cardboard box of comics to thumb through to read and reread. :) <br /><br />Though I think Brubaker and Epling and that team are par excellent. It's hard to say where he'll take the series, but like Marrock said, if he leaves the title, I'm sure Capt. will return (he's done it before), if not sooner. From having read some of the letters pages, Brubaker is a huge fan of the character himself. <br /><br />As far as my comic spending it has slowed down considerably, due to price hikes on the books. I don't know how kids (really young adults) have that much spending money. That's the part that saddens me: that comics have become so expense, it's prohibitive to buy them due to cost concerns. It's become less a hobby of entertainment, and one of collectibles--or something like that. But I think, I'll always follow it to some degree or another.El Voxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05985563041511492981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7421840902573827780.post-13343195187112086902010-02-11T21:50:08.071-06:002010-02-11T21:50:08.071-06:00This is Marvel we're talking about here...

But, I have Captain Spectre, my new hero. <br /><br />The last time I bought comics, was in the mid 90's. The way they killed, crippled, or destroyed the Heroes of old sicken me, so I left.Lloydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07847555211690165472noreply@blogger.com
