If you look carefully during the opening sequence of Star Tours, you can catch a glimpse of Walt Disney frozen in carbonite!

I'll try and summarize it for ya best I can.(Warning:Spoilers!)
After a battle between some superheroes, a school and neighborhood were destroyed-as well as most of the New Warriors. Citizens turned against the Superpowers and the "SuperHuman Registration Act" is born. This means anyone with superpowers has to register with the government. (Real name, abilities, etc..)It comes with benefits, but not every super hero/mutant is for it.
What's cool is that you don't have your typical good guys versus bad guys story. Characters both good and bad, have different opinions about the act. You've got Captain America as well as Nick Fury, Iron Fist, Cable and many others who are Anti-Registration and are now considered fugitives....and then the main Pro-Registration people are Iron man, Spiderman(Who reveals his secret identity), Reed Richards, She-Hulk among several others. SHIELD wants to form a strike team that will hunt down the fugitives...You've got your obligatory plot twists and deaths that seem to take part in any major comic storyline. I can't speak for any of the 20+ spinoff stories going on in all the on-going Marvel series, but I'd say the actual Civil War story is worth checking out.

Damn, that sounds crazy, but cool. A few guys at work talk about the story line. I'm not sure where to begin if I got back into the current comic scene. I still buy comics, mainly issues prior to 1990 for the cover art or 1st apperances. I especialy like Uncanny X men, Amazing Spiderman, Iron Man, Thor, Daredevil, X Factor and so on. I try to buy up mid to high grade Dell, Fawcett, Atlas, and Marvel if I can find them at a cheep price. Sometimes I do score an issue here and there. I was really never much of a DC fan, but do have a few Silver Age issues.
