Really?

I picked this oft forgotten gem as a stupid example for the movie craze sweeping comic books. But yes, it is apparently being considered for a movie.

How many of you got a tinge of excitement and ran to your comic book box and started to pat yourself on the back for that NM Power Pack book you picked up in the .25 cent bin?

Seriously though, if you go on eBay and search for comic books, you are bound to see "movie" in half of the listings. Does it help with the sale? Probably. Is it bad? Heck no! Anything to draw attention to the comic book industry is a great thing. Anything to draw people into collecting comic books is also a great thing. It is also nice to see the American public has fallen in love with superhero films now that technology has caught up.

What is the purpose though of labeling everything movie now?

*Spoiler Alert*

To be ahead of the movie going public in having something they may eventually want so you can eventually turn a big profit.

There. It has been said. You may now all continue to scour the .25 cent bins. But as full disclosure and a cautionary end, I am now using spare copies of Vengeance of Bane #1 to line my bird cage.

Power Pack? Really?
