So glad to see Sam as Cap though I did feel his costume had a little too much white on it and was a little too puffy, somehow. It undermined his great speech at the end of the episode because that costume was... just... distracting! I also never feel like people need to be shamed for not being a Marvel reader prior to…

I thought the scene in ‘The First Avenger’ that perfectly summed up Steve’s character was when he threw himself on the grenade without hesitation. That, for me, showed everyone else in the theater who didn’t know the character WHY he was Captain America. I also thought the little touches of Steve’s character in The…

Some of us always have been. Guy’s singing voice is so thick, it sounds like he’s yodeling. 

In the comics, Zemo continues to show growth and leads a team of former villains called the Thunderbolts. 

Spoiler Alert: all of this is also foreshadowed in the comics. John Walker loses the Cap role and gets a new identity as the more ‘take no prisoners’ operative called US Agent, complete with new shield. So while it will be likely different in the MCU, most everything you’ve seen in this show is based on original…

Sulagna, you nailed it with how committed the global entity acted and even the Senate (?) committee in their outrage at John Walker’s actions- it’s like, well gosh I can see why people want to live in the MCU- look at elected official’s palpable outrage that one of their authorized officers killed a non-white…

In the comics, the Power Broker is a company that gives people a kind of variant on the super-soldier procedure; as I remember, it wasn’t complete like what Steve Rogers got, so there’d be side effects on the recipients.

“but it’s interesting that Bucky was given court-mandated therapy while Walker was allowed to roam free, despite holding many heavy memories.”

I kinda thought Wyatt seemed a little dense at the beginning of this interview. “What did he do to them?” etc. and seeming genuinely surprised. The *character* could be surprised but the actor, I’d expect, would know the gamut of emotions in the other characters. Who knows.

It’s worth noting that, in the comics, one…

That girl is genuinely inspiring and stirs hope in this hardened heart; we need to support and uplift and enable the youth that are this proactive, this forward thinking, this brilliant. And I admit- with some degree of shame, since Taylor is leading by example by rising above it- that I’d like nothing more than to…

The official reason Marvel gave was that several Black readers wrote Mark Gruenwald to explain ‘Bucky’ was a racist term in several areas of the South. Not saying the great Dwayne wasn’t one of them but I thought this name change predated his career in comics.

I do remember that- wasn’t Uncle Ben on that list too?

Dig this totally real and totally-not-written-by-Pauly Shore-under-a-fake account comment that appeared on the workout video cited in the article: “Thank God for the net. Cause hollyweird is mad lame and played games with his career. One executive had it out for him and forced him to do “ in the army now “ . The exec…

Clicking on his workout video I was amazed at the sheer number of comments from “fans” which are clearly just Shore or his management writing really grandiose comments under sockpuppet accounts. Comments which range from how much we need the wiesel back to long, in-depth comments about how the studios purposely…

The “problem” with Superman isn’t his attitude or inherent goodness, or else Chris Evan’s Captain America wouldn’t elicit applause from audiences when he appeared on the screen in Infinity War... it’s that the people responsible for curating Superman have the problem: they are tangibly insecure and awkward, even…

Stop caring about these people. Stop having any interest in British royalty. It is flabbergasting and these people, though apparently pleasant, are bland and far less important than the activist, the teacher, the social worker. The week that jury selection begins in the George Floyd trial, this is what the world…

I’ve got to say, comparing Monica to Captain America is unintentionally insulting, especially if you know what happened to her character in the comics back in the Eighties when MONICA was Captain Marvel, not a Blonde White Woman. Monica was written by Roger Stern to be the competent leader of the Avengers and the…

I’m sure someone else pointed this out, but the woman Wanda sees (with the similar headpiece) is the ENCHANTRESS, an Asgardian villain (also designed by Jack Kirby).

Wait, did I miss it or is there no reference to Donovan’s “Sunshine Superman” which also name checks Green Lantern in the lyrics?

I found the outrage of MCU fans against Scorsese and their demands over being *offended* to be completely ridiculous; if you want an example of “cancel culture” it’s there, it’s not rightfully cutting ties with a Star Wars actress for diminishing what happened in Nazi Germany. And I say that as someone who has a…
