Why has Marvel Comics become so incredibly dark lately? I mean think about it:
300 children and all the New Warriors except one are killed in an explosion.
The one New Warrior who’s still alive is psychotic,
The government passes the Superhuman Registration Act, causing civil war in the superhero community.
The Fantastic 4 is split up. Reed on one side, Sue and Johnny on the other, and Ben so disgusted with the whole thing that he moves to France.
Captain America is killed.
Bucky becomes a new Captain America, but a much darker one (with a gun, knife, and mostly black costume).
Aunt May is shot.
Spider-Man is back in black and acting more savage than ever.
Spider-Man makes a deal with Mephisto to save May, but erases his marriage in the process.
Scott Summers is caught telepathically cheating on his wife.
Jean Grey is dead. Again.
The mutant community is in civil war over the fate of the one mutant baby.
The list goes on.
How long will it be before something good happens?
