marvel_b0y is no more
I read on the Internets that marvel_b0y — the low level Marvel Comics staffer and anonymous whistle blower type blogger — is no more. His account on LiveJournal is history.
They killed marvel_b0y. The bastards.
First they killed Black Goliath. Then they killed Captain America. Now they’ve killed marvel_b0y.
Who’s next?
I enjoyed reading his posts about what goes on in the bowels of Marvel Comics. Not only were they interesting, it was obvious the muckety mucks at Marvel were not too happy with his posts. Marvel lawyers sent marvel_b0y a cease and desist letter on letterhead decorated with goofy looking Marvel superheroes. If the goal of a cease and desist letter is to intimidate, I’m not sure including the likeness of Iron Man or Captain America is a good idea. Iron Man has become a dick and Captain America is dead.
My hope is that marvel_b0y will return. Normally when Marvel Comics kills someone off, it doesn’t last very long.
