AND, I believe the 'killing of' concept is something the Big 2 did ALL the time to draw readers in. I can't speak on if it works. BUT some of us might remember when Jason Todd died in Batman. DC had the whole reader call-in and etc. Superman died. Batman got his back broken. Who KNOWS what happened in the X-Men to get people jiggy with them.

Battleforce2000 was killed in 1 very fast swoop and was NOT very graphic. Seeing as how it was Hama writing, he prolly hated them as much as hated Serpentor. BUT yet, Hama went ninja happy due to Hasbro's insistence.

For the record, notice which company has the GI Joe license now. If only you guys knew the fights behind THAT one.
