My "prioritary problem" with Milla is the fact that she has been through too much. She needs to be given a break.


OK when has anyone in the Marvel (or even the DC) universe really been given a break? Dear lord, look at the amount of crap that gets piled on DD. Do you really think that Milla will be lucky enough to get a break?

Look, I don't know if she will be given a break or not. Maybe it won't happen. I've stated somewhere else that I don't believe the current writer has plans for that.
I simply read that she would appear as strong and confident if she "dumped" her husband - or "kicked him to the curb", going with the elegant expression you used - and I felt like expressing my disagreement on this conception.

I think I'd like to see Milla restored and vindicated at some point. If either Bru or the next writer doesn't want her in Matt's life, that's one thing, but I'd like to see her recover (which would also be a victory for DD), and possibly dump him. That way she could come across as the strong and independent woman I think both Bendis and Bru (yes, looking at issue #94) want her to be.



Unfortunately, even if a cure is found for Milla and she is somehow restored back to health, Milla can't change the fact that she murdered an innocent by-stander. Yes, she was under Fear's influence at the time. Yes, that fact has exonerated her of a crime, but not of committing the act, which is something she will have to live with the rest of her life. As a result, this poor woman's life can never be fully restored.

Yes, that is very depressing and very true. No, I don't think she could live on and be unaffected by it, but I don't think her life would have to be completely ruined.

Isn't it, like, a ten buck fine if you knock someone in front of a train in New York? Who's life gets ruined over a tenner?

I really liked Milla's character. It really is a shame that they did that to her.

But they seem to be subscribing to the "Heroes" school of character development with her. (ie...Peter's girl friend being stuck somewhere in a future that might or might not still exist)
