A “death” was promised in Avengers Vs. X-Men #11, and Marvel has delivered, but also spoiled it with the release of the who and the pages concerning it. This is just the latest example of their willingness to spoil events to make some news and hopefully boost sales. If they’re willing to spoil something like this for such a major event, which should be, and is, seeing massive numbers anyways, you wonder who this spoiler is targeted at?
Good luck to those who don’t want the issue spoiled for them.. And if you want to get the spoiler (in the form of their press release) and see the pages, you can check that out below the jump.
