Captain Americas.. a Nazi?

[Nonsensei]

This one bugs me because in many of the older issues, Tony Stark stays away from the bottle.  There's even a scene where he refuses alcohol, citing his alcholism and his fear that he'd relapse.

Maybe its not the alcohol thing, its the part with him saying thanks.

Touché.

As others have pointed out on other forums, hydra is the antithesis of everything captain America fought against, and going back to comics as early has the 70s shows it.
It's very obvious Nick Spencer has ignored 75 years of character, not bothered to look back at caps history while making this up, it all just creates such juicy spin for the comic.

Of course newspapers are now saying the nick Spencer is receiving death threats on Twitter, when really it's nothing more then people hoping he gets hit by a bus, which isn't a death threat to me.

I think it's just the juicy spin thing.  I'm pretty sure the writer knows that Cap fights nazis/hydra.  It's hard to miss that.  One of the variant covers is a recreation of the iconic Cap punching out Hitler cover.  Plus, the comic has quite a lot of references to Cap's history.  They're just going for shock value here.  And since there's buzz and I'm reading a comic I would have otherwise ignored, it's definitely working.

I worry more about Hydra009 than any other Hydra.

:P

But, where, exactly, is the Red Skull right now?

He's in the US, rabble-rousing with nativist talking points very similar to typical conservative rhetoric.  I suspect it is subtle political commentary on current attitudes towards immigration/immigrants.

meh, I remember a movie where superman went all ass-hole for about 90% of the movie and i remember a TV series where they killed off the character for an entire series and them brought him back via, "it was only a dream".

I desperately want Darth Jar Jar to be a thing.

Have you watched Episode i assuming it is a thing? I don't know how it can't be.

My GF is a Wonder Woman fan. We have this print on our living room wall.



I still enjoy the camp and beauty in the Linda Carter show. I like Batman 66 as well. It's nice to finally have DVDs.

I'll guess that Marvel's doing this to let DC think it has a chance.

Before we completely segue to something else, I'd like to point out that Silver Age Cap briefly went nazi:

I think we are going to get some peace when every beloved character loved by a random group gets to be questioned about being a Nazi or a some sort of a Hitler and finally there is no one left? How many left again?

Consequences of demonising a group into dimensions of a fantasy evil monsters by stripping from reality and seeing things through religous categories? Believers call it satan, seculars call it nazi, hitler... wohooooo...Is Vatican evil? is this evil? is this eeeeevııııııııııl?
