But the <I>reason</I> it sells comics is because the event resonates with the readership on some level. By any standard, this is a difficult time in America's history; writer Ed Brubaker, and Marvel Comics, recognized that and saw a chance to explore the relevant issues by killing their symbol of America and showing the reactions of all the characters around him, both super-powered and normal.<BR/><BR/>So yes, it's a gimmick; but it's also significant.<BR/><BR/>Hope that helps!Stuart Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14275736024834321182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5299061578924379724.post-53708065585887004072009-01-14T08:40:00.000-05:002009-01-14T08:40:00.000-05:00I've been trying to see if there is a link to get ...I've been trying to see if there is a link to get in touch with you but as there doesn't appear to be one, I'll leave you a comment.<BR/><BR/>I'm currently in my final year of university writing my dissertation and I've chosen to focus upon the role of the superhero in recent popular fiction, specifically looking at the death of Captain America. I'm currently breaking it down by looking at all the meanings that could be behind it. <BR/><BR/>I was wondering if you could give me your opinion about whether you his death is significant or if it is just a gimmick to sell more comics? It would be a real booster if I had an opinion from somebody in the industry!<BR/><BR/>I understand you're busy but if you do get a minute this would be greatly appreciated; you would be a great reference!<BR/><BR/>Many, many thanks!<BR/>Emma Samia Howard<BR/>emmasamiahoward@gmail.comEmma Samiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14513749898723963513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5299061578924379724.post-925615572179189102007-11-24T09:49:00.000-05:002007-11-24T09:49:00.000-05:00Sorry -- just saw this!
