Very nice, good points and great variation on Cap's costume, esp. his shield.
"I had a dream, dear
you had one too
mine was the best dream
'cause it was of yooouuuu."
Chris, you are My Valentine – you're flicking burning embers in the eyes of the lying leftists at Marvel Comics.
You draw better than them, you write better than them, you're a better dancer….
[...] here: Cap N’ Trade This entry is filed under America – Blogs, Big Hollywood. You can follow any responses to this [...]
I love the Marvel parody! "I'm riding handlebars here!" I'm going to be giggling about this one all week.
And I do love Zed and Sam's relationship, BTW. It's nice to see a fun, friendly, affectionate marriage instead of the typical "long-suffering-wife = smart, lucked-out-in-the-marriage-mart-man = dumb" for a change. Kudos.
Might be your video card interpreting the colors a little different. It looks red white and blue to me. His suit is purple maybe favoring pink.
But it SHOULD be red pink and blue, for sure.
"Initially they showed Obama as President (he got a cover with Spider-man after all), but lately the President is shown only in shadow and not named."
Would you consider this to be metaphor… as in "shadow government"?
Oh,it's pink…O.
Mebbe so but you've gotta admit it is rich soil we're tilling here.
Maybe Sam Wilson needs a little spanking somewhere in the story line, just to clarify things… A little time in some Soviet-style Gulag, with a couple of tea-partiers, maybe…
I want to like Captain America. But Marvel won't let me.
The Civil War storyline had GREAT potential, but it wasn't as even-handed as the writers set out to make it.
Kudos for good intentions, at least.
Sorry, I'm not buying the "mistakes were made, it was the letterer's fault defense". Brubaker wrote a script that included the line about, "angry white folks" and "don't forget your briefcase, Obama." This story went through 3 editors. It was blessed from the very top.
Personally, I think the story is deliberate attempt to generate controversy, publicity and sales.
Very well put, I'm with you.
Call me when Marvel hires Frank Miller or Brian K. Vaungh to write for Captian America. Atleast Frank his a backbone and is willing to do something others wont (look at his Dark Knight series) while Brian has all the talent that marvel lacks traped in his pinky finger.
Damn you, typo!
A while ago my husband and I watched a TV documentary on the history of comic books and it was very clear that the newer artists disdained the older, pro-America storylines. They said this, it's not my interpretation. This was when Captain America started to fight the US rather than bad guys. They had all become socialists and it showed in their work. A very sad and cheap evolution indeed.
I think they should be ridiculed, spanked by other comic artists and disdained by the public at large. As Steve Rogers (lol) says, this 'mistake' went through editors. It was only a mistake because they thought they'd get enough support from the enemedia to overwhelm the criticism. Didn't happen so now it's a 'mistake'. Oh well, capitalism will take care of it.
DON'T YOU MEAN……..
CAP N' TAX?
I would consider it to be Marvel distancing Obama from what they have Osborn and HAMMER doing in their comics.
Love the shield.
[...] a comment » Big Hollywood is already poking fun at Marvel for the newest issue of Captain America that portrays the Tea Party [...]
This is soooo getting posted on my office cubicle. Great for some very heated "water cooler" talk. Yes, Cap was my favorite Avenger until they turned him from the Sentinel of Liberty to the Sentinel for Social Justice. I hope Marvel comes to their senses and does the movie justice, don't want another Avatar featuring the star spangled avenger.
Did a double take on that one. Awesome.
I would like to agree with you Bauhaus but this has been going on for awhile. I agree, most artist are left leaning but over the last decade it's gotten worse. Especially when W. was in office, Marvel like most just jumped on the band wagon following the trend in popular culture. For me, Marvel was like cutting edge and never really followed the status quo. Kind of like MTV back in the day, they didn't just hate conservatives or Republicans they hated the "establishment" and would give the middle finger to anyone who tried to tell them what to do or think regardless of your political leanings.
What we have now are artist and writers who have no idea about the history of their country or of politics itself drinking the kool aide and trying to help the democratic, liberal cause. I actually don't mind if they have the opinion but they need to drop the self-righteous act of liberal hyporcrisy. It's funny that the heroes they are writing and drawing stand for right against wrong, but like their philosophy everything is shades of gray. Now, they have a right to do this, it's their freedom to do so but don't expect me to respect their opinons and definitely don't expect me to support their work. Just me……
I love the SEIU purple with the O shield!
Your best yet!
Can we let this go? Everyone involved including the letter who did this has apologized and said a mistake. I am willing to take them at their word. Sam Wilson's reaction to the crowd is not meant to be Marvel's. Sam has always been like that and that is one reason I have never liked the character. As for Marvel being leftists, creative types often lean to the left (I'm a recovering liberal myself), but I'm sure within the comics business for every Warren Ellis there is an Ethan van Sciver who sometimes sounds so conservative he could give Breitbart a run for his money. Marvel does a good job of reflecting the real world and for the most part not taking sides. Initially they showed Obama as President (he got a cover with Spider-man after all), but lately the President is shown only in shadow and not named. Granted this has more to do with keeping the story timeless for future publishing, but it has been appreciated by my friends and myself greatly.
Uh, sorry. NO! Marvel's apology was B.S. Issued only because they were exposed. You better wake up and realize that story lines like these don't appear in our media by accident. They are placed purposely, and operatives are paid to put them out. If you you think this is an over-reaction or a tin-foil hat response, you'd better think again. It is a matter of record that opposition governments (and ours) spend vast sums of money on such propaganda, it is widespread, and effective in forming public opinion. The same techniques used by intelligence agencies with foriegn nations are being used here by the Democrats to mold ideas.
(Part 2)
The most public instance of this is the meetings of NEA officials with sudsidized artists and media execs in which the administration outlines specific agendas that the media people are to "voluntarily" promote. The other part of the program is done surreptitiously. If you have doubts about any of this, you can research the subject, there is plenty of factual corroboration out there. If you doubt the effectiveness of such efforts, ask yourself this: How is it that fundamental American values like liberty, respect for the Constitution, ethical limited government and personal responsibility have suddenly become the "crazy," "Wackjob" ideas of "dangerous people?"
Aww…but if people listened to reason, or actually read the comic before condemning it (which would go a long way toward fixing the problem, given that the controversy here has been entirely contrived by one self-important blogger who wanted to drive traffic to his site–it worked), that would require people to act reasonably instead of getting hypered up into a frenzy over ntohing. And where's the fun in that?
I read it the day it came out, and the bias is as plain as can be. If you cannot see it, I question either your indoctrination or your reading level.
Nicely done – I love the implication that the do-gooding lefties are so wrapped up in their own diversity red-tape that they can't even get at the hated Tea Party enemy. I agree wit the posters above who mention that Cap's character has going downhill for decades so none of the news from Marvel should be surprising. Still he is "Captain America" and you have to feel bad whenever his character gets caught up in the fever-swampls of psycho leftist politics.
Enjoyed the strip. My fear is that "they" will destroy captain america like they did to Superman.
I was hoping for a "Captain Chicken vs. Sarahcuda" showdown. Drat.

Have they also apologized for saying that because it's a bunch of white people they must be racist?? I didn't hear that apology if it was made, and I think it's all CYA anyway. They really couldn't care less if they offend the American's who didn't vote for Obama because we are all a bunch of racists anyway right?
