Disney Buys Lucasfilm, More Star Wars Movies

By now you've heard of the news about Disney buying Lucasfilm for $4.05 billion, and with it comes an announcement of a new Star Wars movie - Star Wars: Episode VII - to be release in 2015. But to be honest, has anyone not seen this coming? I mean, a Star Wars ride has been in Disneyland for many, many years. And what could this do for the franchise?

End of an Era: Captain America #19

Writer: Ed Brubaker
Penciller: Steve Epting

It has been almost 9 years since Ed Brubaker started writing the relaunch of Captain America's fifth volume. Along with Steve Epting, the title became an instant critical success when it launched. Looking back, I can say Brubaker's Captain America is one of Marvel's best comic book runs in the past decade. Before this I found the character pretty boring, but Brubaker hooked me in with this title.

Throughout Brubaker's run, he had done a lot of things to the title, including bringing Cap's sidekick Bucky back from the dead, killed Steve Rogers, made Bucky take the mantle of Cap, and then resurrecting Steve Rogers. With last week's issue #19, Brubaker bids farewell to the title.
