I agree. I could of understood all the issues being pushed back two weeks or so, due to the fact half way through #1 turned into a double sized issue but it's just poor scheduling and poor artist selection.
If an artist can't do 7 issues (and change for the extra stuff in #1) in 7 months, don't put him on the book.

Just bought Civil War #2 from eBay for £3.24. Can't wait for it to come, although I'm going to read them in order. Just need to quickly find Issue 1, then.

You know...the lapse has been so long, I dont really know if I care anymore about the event. Marvel is really getting to be blah to me lately. All I really like is Hulk and thats because it has nothing to do with CW. That, and it kicks ass.

OK....how anyone could like any character that's pro-reg fully after issue 4 I won't understand. Reed practically killed someone-a GOOD guy-and hardy blinked. I wish ANY writer of such characters lots of luck to make them even REMOTELY likeable to readers now. Seriously, I hope Mary Jane gets gutted to teach Spider-Man yet another hard lesson on superheroics.
At series end, I want Cap to seriously crunch Tony's nuts into paste. This is one time I wish 616 Cap was like Ultimate U Cap. He'd just shoot Tony if he had to. At this point, he just may have to.

Seriously. After 4, I'm definitely anti now. They're just playing dirty.

(Is it safe to assume this thread implies spoilers? If not, there are some ahead concerning isue 4) What I dont like is I'm STILL not seeing both sides of the arguement. I KNOW why the anti people believe what they believe and why a few left (though I disagree with Cable leaving. After the entire history of the character, I think making him go was a writing mistake). Yet I have heard no basic arguement of WHY pro reg is the right way other than Tony says so. Issues of other series have given more arguement, but I am not reading them. Infinite Crisis let the main story stay in that book. Civil War has kinda failed in that (after Joey Q PROMISED we only needed CW and maybe CW:Frontline. Joey Q lied....again) We also have a much clearer idea of goals now. Anti seems to be "we're gonna be heroes and no one is going to stop us." Pro reg seems to be "win at any and all costs". How Reed Richards can be looked at as anything other than a villain forever onward unless he has some monumental epiphany, I have no idea. I would LOVE to see Doom's opinion on what happened. There is also the fact that none of Cap's people seem ready to KILL to achieve their goal, but Pro surely will. Tony was nearly ready to kill Cap, I dont think Cap would have ever done more than enough to escape. Hell, even when clone Thor killed one of them, I didnt see Reed shutting him down right away. If Sue hadnt helped, they'd likely all be dead. Reed, Iron Man, Spider-Man (what the is he questioning himself...he KNOWS its wrong. Stop being a ****, Parker!) Pym, Wasp...they aren't interesting characters anymore because they've somehow rationlized a death that never needed to happen when they've constantly balked at killing serious bad guys. It's like Batman offing Hal Jordan and finding that ok yet always letting Joker go free. I mean...using bad guys to win? Simply because you want to win? How can you even make someone like that heroic again? I strongly believe someone important has to die in this to really make an impact. Anti lost Goliath. Who does the Pro side lose? It's a good story, but I fear it may ruin a few characters in the process.

I am really enjoying it, but you do bring up some very good points. Based on everything I know about RIchards, he should have shut down Thor the very moment he did that. And this very well could ruin some characters forever. But I think something is going to happen to "re-unite" everyone again at some point. Whether it be another Galactus party, or some type of Secret Wars type thing. Cable leaving made no sense to me either. But I don't know how we are ever supposed to like Richards and Stark ever again.

Anybody elee think Tony Stark revealing that he cloned Spider-Man will be the final straw that makes Spidey switch sides? There's few things that piss of Spider-Man more than cloning him.

I think that all the "prisoners" will get out of this gulag they built and that'll be the big end event. Anyone that was a hero will end up a villain because, really, why stand by someone who just stabbed you in the back?
I'm also anticipating the return of both the REAL Thor (I dunno if I'm the only one that caught that Moljinor was also fake on the monitors in the lab-so I'm guessing that means the guy we saw pick up the hammer in the desert was the REAL Thor and the real hammer) and Nick Fury. We already know Fury dislikes Director Hill, so he'll likely be on Cap's side, but I wonder...
Anyone reading X-Men:CW? Bishop is another character I think they're kinda ruining. I know the story NEEDS two sides, but some heroes are being written so cold and callous about turning on their former allies, you almost wonder how they were ever heroes to begin with.

Wolverine #46 has pivotal stuff if they play it right, with that corporation and all.

It kind of makes a weird sort of sense for Bishop to be pro-reg, though. Because if America's busy worrying about the "superhuman threat" they won't be able to worry about the "mutant threat," and the future he came from may never come to be.

Sue is such a badass. I loved that scene in Civil War #4.
Am I the only one who feels sorry for the people hating Civil War? I mean really hating... on comic boards everywhere writing like this is the worst storyline ever. Its gotta suck hating the entire story (Main mini and every tie in) when it should change Marvel for a long time to come.

Most comic fans will bitch about anything honestly, no matter how good/bad. While some parts have been weak, and not used to their full potential, overall I have really enjoyed it. I just don't get all of the hate.

A lot, and I mean a LOT, of the tie-ins have been great. Amazing Spider-Man is better than it's been in years. Frontline is great. In fact, most of what's not written by Mark Millar has been pretty spectacular. But he's doing such crazy crapin the mini that every has to deal with it's throwing everthing out of whack. I think everyone (myself included at the beginning) is still really upset by the delay a month ago and letting ti cloud their view. Because pretty much everyone loved #1-3. #4 was defintely much worse, but not as bad as eveyone's making it out to be. There's still 3 more issues to deal with everything everyone's complaing about.
