Quote

A battle through time! The shocking conclusion!

This month - guest-starring Wolverine!

We can’t tell you anything without spoiling AVX!

Who lives? Who dies? Who wins? Who loses?

All new jumping on point!

When the smoke clears, the team’s roster will be nearly halved...

A story years in the making brought to you by some of the greatest creators in [bleep] history!

The streets of New York run red with blood!

What they discover will surprise them, you...and him!

The critically acclaimed epic reaches its climax as [bleep]'s future and past collide and nothing will ever be the same again. No, really. We mean it this time. Stop looking at us like that.

A shocking death that will destroy the team.

Revealed! The secret weapon that could tip the balance...forever!


Scoring:

0-2     DC fan
3-5     Your no-prize is in the mail!
6-9     Nothing will ever be the same!!
10-11  You never could have seen this coming!!!
12       Stan Lee!!!!!!!!!!

Technically, you got 100%, since Wolverine is in all of them (even ones I didn't list, like The Stand), but by the rules of the game, you got 1 correct! You have already won, because being a Marvel fan is its own reward!!  Congratulations!!!!

Never fear, true believer!  You correctly guessed that two of the titles involved shocking death! even though you mixed up the order.  You receive half credit, giving you 3 points, and one of our super secret, super valuable no-prizes!  Congratulations!!!

I'm guessing these 2 are supposed to match:

Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #16.1
- All new jumping on point!

I'm thinking another version of the game would be to re-write the blurbs after passing them through an "honesty filter".

Here's my attempt on the above:

Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #16.1
- We wanted to sell an extra issue of Ultimate Spider-Man this month!

You'd think so, wouldn't you?  The take away here is that all of Marvel issues are great jumping on points!!
