Regarding Uatu the Watcher's imminent death in Original Sin #1:

Such a pointless waste of a beloved character. So I guess this means, no more What If? People born in decades hence will no doubt look back on Kirby's "Coming of Galactus," and wonder who that bald guy is on the cover of Fantastic Four #48.

And really, what purpose does this serve? Can any possible new story that results from this outweigh what Uatu himself brought which was at all unique to the Marvel universe?

I think not.
