Pardon me if I make mistakes in sending this article, I am a rookie to
the network.


	I would like to add my voice to those flaming the new SECRET WARS
from MARVEL.  I had heard that such a mini-series was coming for quite a
while and that events in the war would effect those "soldiers" in many ways.
After seeing everyone disappear into the strange alien building ("transporter")
for three weeks I thought I was primed and ready for a great battle of the
good guys verses the bad.  I was also glad that Jim Shooter was scripting
because I thought here was someone who really knew the Marvel Universe.
	All my hopes crashed, burned, and left a three mile crater at the
end of the first issue.  The characterization of my favorite heores was like
something out of the Saturday Morning Cartoons.  When they weren't fighting,
they were ready to beat up  the bad guys even when they want to talk.  Like 
OZ, I feel that I have to buy all the issues even though I don't look forward
to any of them.
	Perhaps we should start a list of all inconsistancies and mail them to
Shooter when done.  Naw, at this rate we'll all run out of disk space by the
time he reaches issue 8.
