I think it'd be better if Marvel tackled this kind of story. Barring the utter ridiculousness of Magneto and Dr. Doom crying, someone like Captain America trying to search out Bin Laden would be more suitable, especially since Marvel is a lot similar to the real world than DC, which, coinsedentally, doesnt seem to have a global economy, national infrstructure, or any government at all [if they do have a government, they're all lazy bastards who let super-powered gods run amock, something we know would never happen in the real world, especially since the government would wage all out war on any super-powered hero that threatened their power]



The Marvel U has seen so many skyscrapers knocked over by the Hulk, Galactus etc., and so many innocent people killed by the Red Skull, Dr. Doom, Hydra, et al, I suspect that Sept 11 wouldn't be much of an event for them.



Your right, considering beings like Onslaught who tore down entire NYC districts, or some such shit, but Marvel foloat between the 2 comic spectrums. Government controlling realism [New Avengers, Daredevil, Captain America]etc... and uncontrollable super-powered battles [Thor, some X-titles]

Marvel could still take a deep breath and market it in a very real-World light, similar to Bendis' recent Secret War, where I hear Nick Fury dropped Bruce Banner into a foreign country and pissed him off with a transmitter in order to induce transformation, something suprisingly realistic. Marvel also had that 'Al Tariq' guy from Captain America, something that could be nicely rolled into Caps war on Al Qaeda
