And Merry Christmas Everyone!

Arrgh, I totally would...if I wasn't at work right now. :/ But don't worry, Cap ain't going down without a fight...so watch your back!

And about Civil War, I totally agree. I loved every aspect of the story especially the training of heroes for that purpose, and Civil War was actually the event that first got me into reading comics on a consistent basis when it came out a few years back so it'll always hold a special place in my nerdy heart.

My personal favorite aspect of the story is basically how "real" it all felt. By having Thor dead, and Hulk "exiled" it gave more of the focus to the street level heroes and the story (imo) all the better for it.

Now don't get me wrong, I love Marvel's big bombastic events as much as the next guy but "Civil War" resonated with me because it asked a very hard question and treated it with respect and care instead of resorting to old tropes (mind control!, Clones!..Mind controlled clones!) and it was one of those events that could I could easily see happening in real life if metahumans existed...

Whew.. after that "nerdgasm" there for a moment, lol. Wouldn't it be sweet if we got a whole set of MU Greatest Battles Civil War 2-pack's? (ala Secret Wars) I'd love to have a Herc vs. Ragnarok set or Battled Damaged Cap vs. Iron Man from the final issue.

Ah shit...now I'm just getting myself worked up again...
