It's a good read. I can see it doing well as a TV show.

Thanos Captain Marvel has been rising the last few shows.
I know it's been "hot" for a bit, but I see it rising to another price level.

Civil War #1 is heating up on eBay. I imagine Marvel's recent announcement about something coming up in 2015 involving a Civil War is responsible for that. My hunch (based in part on what I've read on the CGC boards) is that the new Secret Wars is going to involve linking to a lot of old crossovers (or old "Wars" perhaps; War of Kings, World War Hulk, etc.) via time travel, maybe with a Marvel reboot coming out of it. I don't know if that means we can expect *all* old Marvel crossovers to see some increased attention, or if interest will fizzle as people realize there's not just a few key books to target. I expect attention will be spread out amongst a lot of old books as people try to pick what the key book is.

That was also talked about In a article on bleeding cool last week. That's was when they showed the Alex Ross painting and talked all about the characters who are and are not on it.

Also Arrow 1 (show continuity) and Green Arrow 17. Also Suicide Squad is heating up as speculation is building as to what squad they use. I think it will be obviously the new 52, but if it is the Jokers daughter , watch out for her first app. Also those Harley issues with her origin will continue to rise. I must admit to being worried about new 52 stuff with the rumors of Didios removal build steam.that's just the rumor mill, but if they do so too will go the "new 52" so they can try to reclaim old readers. I promise to post more as I hear it. :wink:

Google: Captain America Civil War movie. Looks like they're using the Civil War storyline as a basis for a movie.

It would make sense. They need more heroes in the movies first. Let the speculation begin as to who......

Choose wisely. 8-)

True. I wonder what the price is going to do now?

I might pull mine out of my boxes the next few months.

I think it's entirely possible Marvel's Civil War will take more than one movie to tell.
