FORENUMZUG!!!
Hallo, liebe Community! Nach langem Hin und Her und auch einigen früheren Anläufen bin ich jetzt endlich zu dem Entschluß gekommen, den Anbieter zu wechseln! Dies wird allerdings erst in ein paar Wochen starten können und ich möchte auch (da es mir leider unmöglich ist, den Transfer ALLER Daten zu bezahlen), schon einiges vorarbeiten, so dass ihr in ein schönes neues Zuhause mit mir ziehen könnt! :D Nach dem letzten langen Servercrash und dem Verlust aller Beiträge seit Juni, denke ich, ist das ein Entschluß der langfristig allen am besten gerecht wird. Ausserdem gibt es ja imme ein paar Schwierigkeiten mit dem Anbieter und auch der Software, so dass es ein spannender Neuanfang sein wird. Ich möchte euch bitten, dieses Forum trotzdem am Leben zu erhalten, bis der Umzug vollendet ist, da ich dieses Forum auch als Archiv mit verlinken werde und wir somit trotzdem noch Zugriff auf alles haben, was hier so geschrieben wurde. Ich hoffe, ihr macht alle mit und wir sehen uns BALD in neuen vier Wänden! :D Bis dahin, keep on Posting und enjoy your MARVEL CHECKLIST!!! :legacy:

CAPTAIN AMERICA REBORN!
Es ist raus: [b]STEVE ROGERS kehrt zurück![/b] [url=http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/arts/2009/06/15/2009-06-15_some_comic_relief_captain_america_is_coming_back_to_life_in_a_new_fivepart_serie.html]NEW YORK DAILY NEWS - Artikel[/url] siehe auch hier: http://www.newsarama.com/comics/060915-Cap-Reborn.html [quote]According to the story by Ethan Sacks, what many fans speculated would be happening in the upcoming Captain America: Reborn miniseries by Ed Brubaker and Bryan Hitch will be happening – that is, the original Captain America will be coming back to life. The story of the return of Steve Rogers begins in Captain America #600, on sale today in many comic shops. "The original Captain America is finally coming back," Marvel Comics editor in chief Joe Quesada told the Daily News. "We've been patiently planning for this moment for 2 1/2 years." [/quote] [quote]One quick publication note - Captain America will go on hiatus after issue #601 (featuring art by Gene Colan), allowing Reborn to run its course for five months. Captain America #602 will then hit stores in November or December. [/quote] Brevoort im Interview: http://www.newsarama.com/comics/060915-Brevoort-Reborn.html [quote]Tom Brevoort: We didn't have a specific date or anything, but we knew we'd be getting to this point sooner or later. In our naivety, Ed had originally planned to bring Steve back around issue #30--that didn't quite work out that way, for very positive reasons! Nevertheless, we've been ready to pull the trigger on this phase of the storyline whenever the moment seemed right [...] NRAMA: Fair enough. Now something that wasn't mentioned in the Daily News story was the fate of Bucky. Personally, I get the impression that Bucky would gladly hand the costume back to Steve, but just in case that's not how things go down - is the Marvel Universe big enough for two Captain Americas? TB: That's the question, isn't it? But that also assumes that Steve will want the outfit back, or that he'll be in mental and physical shape to take it back by the end of Reborn. Either way, one of the big questions that Bucky's going to have to face, that he's been avoiding all these months while he's been busying himself in trying to carry on for Steve, is where does James Barnes fit in the world of 2009? What kind of a life can he have? NRAMA: In the eyes of many fans, Ed's done an admirable job at keeping Captain America, the series, free of "intrusions" from the Marvel Universe proper during his run. That said, will Reborn be a fully Cap-centric story, or will we see echoes of Dark Reign, and other larger current elements? TB: I'm not sure that "intrusion" is the right word--I just think that readers like the stories Ed has been telling. Certainly one of the complaints we've been hearing about, say, Fantastic Four is that there haven't been enough "intrusions" from the rest of the Marvel Universe, and it's had more than Cap. That all aside, Reborn will be a Captain America story, but one that takes place within the larger Marvel Universe. So yes, you'll be seeing Norman Osborn and the Dark Avengers and the Mighty Avengers and Doctor Doom and assorted other characters as the series moves forward.[/quote] der offizielle Presstext von Marvel: [quote]It was the shot heard ‘round the world. Following the most shocking and controversial event in comic book history – the assassination of Captain America in the pages of Captain America #25 – neither the heroes of the Marvel Universe nor the rest of the world have quite come to grips with this most traumatic of losses. From the moment he was taken from us until today, one fact has proven to be true: the world still needs Captain America. And now, the time has come! At long last, the legend, the hero, is back. Steve Rogers makes his triumphant return from the grave in the publishing event of the year: Captain America Reborn, a five part series from Marvel Comics beginning this July. Captain America: Reborn #1, cover by John Cassaday Captain America: Reborn #1, cover by John Cassaday ENLARGE IMAGE Long seen as the world’s greatest hero, Captain America made his first appearance in March, 1941, boldly fighting the Nazis in World War II. As a symbol of true patriotism, his popularity soared during the war as he became a nationally revered icon of US efforts to spread freedom around the globe. Serving as the Sentinel of Liberty for nearly 70 years, Cap embodied the spirit of the American people and became one of the world’s most beloved and recognizable characters. His death rocked the entire world, real and fictional, and his return from the grave promises to be a landmark event as well. The recipient of two Eisner Awards for his tale about the life and death of Captain America, Ed Brubaker joins forces with acclaimed Ultimates artist Bryan Hitch for the landmark Captain America Reborn series. This partnership promises to produce the visually arresting, action packed story that fans around the world have been eagerly anticipating. A story that captured international attention, Captain America #25 polarized shocked audiences by starkly depicting the murder the cultural icon. On that fateful day when shots rang out on the courthouse steps, Cap’s greatest enemy—the Red Skull-- achieved his greatest ambition—or so it seemed. Since that time, the Marvel Universe has been in chaos, as as the Red Skull has worked towards his true endgame. But now there is a ray of hope in the form of Steve Rogers! How can Steve Rogers return from the dead, and will his rebirth be enough to stop the global threat of his sworn enemy? Hitting shelves on July 1st, the special five part series Captain America Reborn finally reveals the true scope of the Red Skull’s nefarious plan, and begins Captain America’s triumphant return. For fans of Captain America and those wanting to own a part of this historic moment in Marvel history, visit your local comic book retailer on July 1, 2009 to purchase Captain America Reborn #1. To learn more about this landmark event, go to www.marvel.com/reborn! To find a comic book retailer near you, visit http://www.comicshoplocator.com/ or call 888-COMICBOOK.

The people of Chicago - men, women and children - are dying in the streets, victims of a monster whose thirst for slaughter cannot be quenched, whose soul is a bottomless void and whose scars run even deeper than Nighthawk's.

And so was the Goblin. A master at turning hopelessness into a commodity, the corrupt mob boss led a colorful gang of circus sideshow freaks -- including the cannibalistic Vulture -- in a corrupt stranglehold on the city. Peter Parker came of age during this time of struggle and hardship. Raised by his Uncle Ben and Aunt May, two stemwinding Socialists committed to positive change for the people, Peter would have been a boyish beacon of optimism in any other era. But in this world of noir, he was an embittered, angry young man on the search for justice. And then along came a spider. After a fated meeting with a mystical arachnid and its life-changing bite, he may have just inherited the force to honor the phrase, "If those in power can't be trusted, it's the responsibility of the people to remove them."

Anne-Marie Rankin has a special talent for being whoever you need her to be. And Magnus needs her, the better to get close to Unus is the Untouchable, a mob boss so good at staying alive it's driving his rivals nuts. And Xavier? That discredited shrink sits in a jail cell, wondering what in the world his little refugees from the "Xavier School for Exceptionally Wayward Youth" are up to now. Other than staying one step ahead of Magnus, that is. But now Jean Grey is dead. And nobody is allowed to care -- nobody that counts -- because who cares about one of Xavier's dead grifters?
