Which will be the Son who falls in "Fallen Son?" (See poll.)

I think if anyone "dies" it will be Stark. It would make him the ultimate hero, dying for the cause the thinks is right. Plus, Iron Man can go on (until they bring Stark back to life).
They can't kill Cap since his book is strong and Bru has a great arch coming
They can't kill Pym because then who would they dump on?
Not Reed as he is too important to the MU (plus who else would find and save Stark from his "death" in the Negative Zone?)

It’s hard to say what the “Fallen Son” title really means. However, I think we can assume Marvel won’t make the “Son” a female—so, that would count out MJ and Sue. The solicitation for the first issue (starring Wolverine) talks about a death (or alleged death) that is central to that issue’s plot, but it’s not clear that the whole five-issue story revolves around a death, real or otherwise. And even if it does—the decedent might not be the “Fallen Son” of the title. For example, a story in which Mary Jane Parker has died could lead to Spider-Man’s “fall” into depression, or a story in which Steve Rogers has died could lead to Tony Stark’s “fall” from grace. So, I’m not answering this poll—just raising more questions.  |

My gut reaction when I first read the story at Newsarama was "oh, crap. They're going to kill Captain America." Then I saw that Cap was going to be one of the stars of the Fallen Son series, so I thought I was wrong. Then I wondered if someone was going to become the new Captain AMerica (hence why it's under the stage of "bargaining") and thought it was him again. Some are now speculating that Cap will be the new Ronin, and this would make sense if he's the one "dead." (Did they ever say the "fallen son" would be dead, or just you know "fallen". ?

One rumor floating around is that Cap will fake his death and become Ronin, while Winter Soldier will take up the Captain America mantle. While I could see the first part happening, I can't see Bucky becoming Cap. As currently portrayed, he is burdened with tremendous guilt over his activities while brain-washed and doesn't even seem to feel himself worthy to even be around Steve, let alone take over for him.
