Noh-Varr is a copy, nothing against his Morrison series, it's just not Mar-Vell, kind of unfair to both characters. if you ever liked the band KISS, it's like putting Tommy Thayer out there in Ace Frehley's makeup and costume, for lack of better analogy.
Anyway, I like how the first person pieced together the Mar-Vell (or what fans were told was Mar-Vell anyway) but really, looking at the dates, I'm not so sure there wasn't a storyline bailout, if you remember he was a time-traveler at first and in real life, Marvel didn't realize this character would get as popular as it did, they underestimated it back in the day because it was in many ways ahead of it's time. Either way the comic, for those five months and appearances was among the higher sellers in comics (2007-2008), not bad for a "dead" guy.
There is a movement I heard about to bring him back but you have to write Marvel.
