He was killed because of a whole committee of re-re's, anon.
No he was killed off because Bendis is a retard and thought the Civil War movie was going to kill him off.
Bendis trying for that movie synchronicity

Bendis confirmed that Rhodey died because of MCU Sinergy.
I took the liberty to update the Bingo
>>84374270
Nah, I'm saying if anything happened to Tony Rhodey would be the logical person to step in
>>84374311
And yet the movies had the good sense NOT to kill him, but still injure him to show that there are consequences.
To those who think MCU synergy is the greatest threat to comics, I counter with Bendis writing is the greatest threat to comics.
>>84374311
But... Rhodey lives.
>>84374377
Because Bendis didn't bother check the movie. He thought War Machine was gonna die in Civil War, so he killed him in the comics.
Honestly I liked that the Russos didn't kill Rhodey and let him have a cool moment in the final part of the movie. They knew his death was unnecessary and wouldn't had a big impact on the audience anyway

CW2 was being worked on when ANAD started rolling out so he wrote it way before that was confirmed.

Bendis probably thought Wanda was going to kill a bunch of blacks deliberately.
>>84374241
When the fuck did Rhodey and Carol start dating?
Diversity killed him.

KSD's run. A Carol Corps member on tumblr said she ships them because they're both Air Force, so KSD made them get together for five minutes before Carol left for space. He also saw her off when she went into space again for the current run.
What I'd really like to know is if they'll change the writer of Gwenpool
Hastings was really fun to read, I hope he'll be writing that new ongoing

Movie synergy and Bendis writing are one and the same.
>>84374377
All he had seen at that point was the trailer where Rhodey gets shot down and clearly the black guy has to die to let everyone know this is serious business because that's how they do it in comics.
>>84374241
No, he was killed off because of movie synergy.
>>84374377
Marvel comics keeps looking at the movies and trying to one-up them in the dumbest way possible. Remember Iron Man 3 when Rhodey was made into Iron Patriot as a joke? And then the comics wing went "Oh you think that's cool? Well check it out, we gave him a whole army of Iron Patriots!" Same thing here, they're trying to out-do crippling Rhodey by killing him.
>>84374377
It looked like he died in the movie so they killed him.
>>84376752
>movie synergy
"Black dude dies first" is an actual thing. Also: they capped a brother in the first Civil War.

>we gave him a whole army of Iron Patriots!
You mean exactly like the start of Age of Ultron?
