Random Marvel-Related Notes

Yes, I saw the new Captain America: Civil War trailer. Was thrilled in all the right places. One quibble: the counts for those three MCU disaster events during Secretary Ross' briefing scene? The numbers for the Battle of the Triskelion in Washington, DC strike me as far too low. In dollars and lives.

About the comic book A-Force? The latest issue - # 3 - arrived this week, and I'm feeling a bit down here, as planned.

( A bit of context about a spoiler )

More on other stuff later.

Who needs conspiracy theory?

Thanks to rfmcdpei for reminding me that this is a reality:

davidbrin has pointed out such issues more than once on his own weblog, of course, but the reminders are still useful. Especially where a law like the USA's Clayton Act is concerned. And since the USA has a federal election underway, maybe some renewed attention to the Clayton Act's enforcement - or lack of it - is due as part of the debates?
