      I figured something like this was going to happen, as Marvels' following DC's lead with rebooting their line.
      "It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

        I'd be surprised if it stuck. They "ended it" before in the early 400's only to revert to original numbering when issue #500 came around.

          Agreed. "One More Day" sealed the deal with me as far as Spider-Man goes....

            This is more than likely being rebooted the following month as part of Marvel's "NOW" initiative. I'm a BIG stickler for the legacy numbering so I personally don't like this constant renumbering on classic titles like this and "Action Comics", "Detective Comics", etc.

              From the article...."There will also be five variant covers for the comic - a 50th Anniversary varient, Wraparound cover, Olivier Coipel Cover, and a Joe Quesada cover...."

              This is why I stopped buying comic books.

                Yeah, this is what killed the market in the 1990's and they never really recovered from it. Good to see they learned their lesson-NOT!

                  Anyone really think that in at least 10 years, some new blood won't come in and dial the numberings back to the original (like they've already done once or twice at Marvel), and maybe even reboot back to the status quo? No one thought Hal Jordan would ever return, and no one really wanted Barry Allen to return anymore, except DiDio...

                    From what I've read it sounds like Marvel plans to follow DC as far as full reboot on some characters. I thought that is why we had the Ultimate Universe? Newbies could read Ultimate Universe comicbooks because they didn't understand or wanted something new. I find this really odd and wouldn't think that Marvel would be that stupid. We'll see what happens when it happens.

                    As for DC comics; DC 52 sucks ***! I'm hoping that with DC's multiverse that the real DC universe is on one of those Earths and they return to it after the bad sales and they scrap DC 52 or keep it around as DC's version of Ultimate comics. Yeah, I'm dreaming.

                      That's kinda the reason for doing the multiverse: you can go back to any setting you want whenever you want. I wouldn't be surprised to see flareups of ALL the old universes at some point, kinda how they did the Earth 2/Earth 1 stories back in the 70's. 'Course, it won't be with the frequency the older fans would want, but it'll be there.

                      >this is what killed the market in the 1990's and they never really recovered from it.

                      True, and it amazes me how little they learned from the comics that claimed the market from them afterwards.

                            They'll more than likely reboot with a new issue 1 and a rehash of Spidey's orgin with a new writing/art team. We've seen this before. This is why I stick with independent books these days. I'll see the movies, but I'll pass on the DC/Marvel books, unless it's stuff from the 60's, 70's, 80's, and early to mid 90's. Thought Ultimate Spider-Man, Spider-Girl, and Civil Wars were good, though.
