   who is the killer?   
      
   (03-07) 05:52 PST New York (AP) --   
      
      
   Captain America has undertaken his last mission — at least for now. The   
   venerable superhero is killed in the issue of his namesake comic that hit   
   stands Wednesday, the Daily News reported.   
      
      
   On the new edition's pages, a sniper shoots down the shield-wielding hero as   
   he leaves a courthouse, according to the newspaper.   
      
      
   It ends a long run for the stars-and-stripes-wearing character, created in   
   1941 to incarnate patriotic feeling during World War II. Over the years, an   
   estimated 210 million copies of "Captain America" comic books, published by   
   New York-based Marvel Entertainment Inc., have been sold in a total of 75   
   countries.
