If Damian is the character who made me realize I'd stopped caring, what happened to the Marvel family was a huge part of what LED me to not caring.Michael Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12514945570212261283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7857882.post-47667430914779356412010-12-17T08:56:24.658-06:002010-12-17T08:56:24.658-06:00It's hard to say.

Cap is my favorite hero, and but DC has never been able to make him work for some reason. Having Billy take over as the wizard Shazam, making Freddy the new Captain Marvel, and turning Mary into a "bad girl," just ruined it for me.<br /><br />I will say that Damian actually grew on me. I didn't like the concept @ first. But in the pages of Batman & Robin, Morrison really made the character grow on me.J.R.

I don't think I've ever felt like such a gullible sucker in all my years of reading comics. <br /><br />I knew going in to it that the series was going to be no good, I just didn't realize they'd be using this 'event' to shut down my favourite title - for twelve years straight! - at it's conclusion. And man, what a ham-fisted, ignominious ending. And when I did find out, well I still had to go to the shop twice a month to pick up TWO comics I didn't want just to complete my set.<br /><br />What a chump.Ian Explosivohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02750892963936101865noreply@blogger.com
