Q: “Justafriend" - Upon ingesting alcoholic beverages the other evening, I found something rather troubling about Civil War and was wondering if I could get a little help with putting it into perspective.
The heroes being divided and battling is all well and good, however, what is the point? The reason I ask is even if Captain America's team smacks around team Iron Man, it's not like the government will repeal the Registration Act (unless the President is a gambling man and bet on the final battle of course). Are these just the insane ramblings of a drunk or does who wins the actual fight not necessarily affect the outcome of the main issue of Civil War (registration) itself?
JQ: You know, Justafriend, your ramblings aren’t insane, but you’d have to ask yourself the same question about any war. Take the Revolutionary as an example, it was a small band of colonists battling against their government, and you know, sometimes someone has to dies in order to actually get a message across…
What? What? Was it something I said?
In all seriousness, Civil War #7 is almost on the stands, so stay tuned, revelations are on their way.**
Now, let me ask you a very important question. When drunk, does your mind always wander to comics? Just curious, that’s all, ‘cause I have a completely different experience in most cases [laughs].
