Is this suicide? Why is Marvel killing off Marvel? Marvel has many people that love Marvel. Why would Marvel do this to itself?

to replace it with Marvel Cinematic Universe tie-ins

It looks like a cross between Age of Apocalypse and Heroes Reborn.

Walt Simonson (from the article): “I’m an empirical guy,” he said. “Maybe this is coming back out of my old geology days, but I try not to have instant reactions to things and say, ‘Oh my God! That’s terrible!’ My basic reaction is usually ‘let’s see the evidence in the field.’ Let’s come back in a year and see what we’ve got. That will tell the story.”

Which seems to me to be the best way to approach this. The relaunch could, in theory, result in better books. Sometimes, a reboot like this will spark creativity, like in the post-Crisis era at DC when we got books like Ostrander's Suicide Squad, Morrison's Animal Man and Doom Patrol, any number of Giffen recreations, Grell's Green Arrow, etc. Perhaps this is a way to move forward.

It's gonna be a long road until SW is over and no reboot happens. Until then, just gotta listen to folks bristle and freak out.

Remember when HoM was "the reboot"?

And then Age of Ultron?

And then AvX?

And probably some inbetween those 3?

The panic will never end.
