Brubaker's Cap run was one of the few good things coming out of Marvel at the time. Even Steve's death didn't bug me that much in retrospect... In an odd way, it fit. I mean Steve could have died during some huge x-over or something, but being gunned down as a part of some extravagant Red Skull concocted plot worked for me. It was decidedly non-cosmic, which is the way I'd expect a hero like Cap to go.x-man75https://www.blogger.com/profile/10292719455945603075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-67420112532454806972011-07-24T22:49:40.067-04:002011-07-24T22:49:40.067-04:00I also miss Nomad, but the stain of disassembled &...I also miss Nomad, but the stain of disassembled & civil war drove me away from Brubaker's cap (even though I loved his Red Skull), nothing against Bucky but hanestly If Steve had an actual EPIC death, I'd definitely let Bucky replace him (well you know I intend to give Wolverine an ending, But just you wait for my fanon x-men, in 20 members take a guess ;) )<br /><br />SaidiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-89552371780139828912011-04-11T00:36:22.534-04:002011-04-11T00:36:22.534-04:00You'd think that this would have been a good i...You'd think that this would have been a good issue to jump into Uncanny with...

I picked it up thinking it might be a good jumping-on point, but I haven't read it yet. I too am familiar with Magneto's history, so I have the feeling it might be a bit of a bore.Marchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10558378521891430225noreply@blogger.com
