We already know that Captain Marvel #8 is set to light up the eBays with its first appearance of a new character But what about the book's star? It seems that Captain Marvel herself is not doing too well as the public turns against her for this storyline, and it doesn't matter how much money[...]

Ah, Marvel time It takes the 1960s-era origins of Marvel's most well-known heroes and, due to a desire to make sure Spider-Man never appears older than 27, inappropriately shoehorns them into an ever-advancing modern time period Hey, you gotta keep those characters in their most marketable forms, after all Who would want to buy a[...]

But while it contained some characters from the normal Marvel Universe, the rest of the people, apparently, were constructs, all part of X-Man himself.
