When I stopped into my local comics shop hangout a few weeks back, my friend and sales person Pete and I got into another conversation about ” Civil War “, albeit short but Pete threw out this little thought…” what if Civil War is actually a ” House of M ” event?

How many of you have ever watched the evening soap opera/drama ” Dallas “?

In it’s heyday, Dallas was one of the few shows that I just had to watch, but it also had it’s lame moments….like the ” it was all a DREAM ” Bobby season, where we find out that his wife Pam, isn’t actually dead…it was a year long dream!

Well, here’s an unlikely ( and probably twisted )view of how this might become a 7 issue

” House of M ” dream…..Steve Rogers steps out of a shower, goes to his bathroom mirror and see’s a 48 year old, lanky person and is totally dismayed….what has happened to me and shouts out ” Honey!”…..” Wanda, what’s happened to me? “

An overweight Wanda Maximmoff walks into the room and slaps Steve in the face and yells at him I’ll tell ya what’s happened to you, I stopped giving you your medicine because I’m tired of my worthless excuse of a husband thinking he is a World War Two hero, who ran around in tights with a Red, White and Blue shield, and your not some SUPER HERO fugitive, running from the government and someone named Tony Stark! She slaps him again and yells snap out of it, there is no CIVIL WAR!

Than, Steve Roger’s world goes WHITE…..and in the next scene we see Magneto standing over his still insane daughter, Wanda in his safe-hold on the island of Genosha. He stares at his sleeping daughter, wondering what she might be dreaming of that has put a smile across her lips….in a large, padded cell we see a person tied in a straight jacket, gagged, his eyes wide, tears streaming out, and Steve Rogers can only scream in side his mind…and the last scene is a fade out of the cell, which has a clip board hanging on it that says the following…..Shield Containment cell, subject Steve Rogers, Captain America; Diagnosis: Constant Medical Breakdowns:Dementia, Memory Lapses: …..

Physician….Doctor Stephen Strange….and we fade to black….How’s that for a dream sequence!
