THE DEATH OF JANET VAN DYNE
In 2008 one of the founding members of the Avengers was killed in Secret Invasion #8. I don’t know if someone really is going to miss Janet in her comic book death as she was one of the least prominent characters in the past few years in any major storyline. Probably in Secret Invasion she was given a part just to kill her because there weren’t any major plots around Janet (not to mention that the character was also killed in the Ultimate’s, I wonder if the writers grew bored of the Wasp?).
I found the death of the Wasp a little bit Deux ET Machina, something that appeared almost out of nowhere just to explain the removal of the character, but well you know that almost no comic book character remains death, except for Uncle Ben and Gwen Stacey.
