Marvel Comics revives Captain America. No, the original man did not come back to life, but another character has taken up his mantle.

. . . killing off Captain America last year seemed to give him new life with readers. The editor was taken aback when newspapers even carried obituaries on the character. “Not since the 1940s have we seen Cap being this popular,” he said.

Why doesn’t Captain America have a good–I mean, good–movie yet? Maybe there will be one in 2009.
