Surely there are writers that actually LIKE Captain American but then he’d be popular and that’s problematic

[@cobinizer]

My grandfather fought in WW2, and Captain America always reminded me of him, and the greatest generation in general. When they retconned Steve to be a Hydra agent, well, my hatred for Marvel deepened.

[@paramahansayoga84]

Worst thing to Happen to Marvel …. Disney and their DEI

[@lobaoguara2332]

It's a shame that in such bad times, we need more patriotic heroes to remind us why we fight... Not out of pride or anger but for the people around us. I'm sad to know that heroes like Captain America are being treated so badly because of politics.

[@christophertaylor9100]

If I got the job on this, I'd write a lot of flashback issues of him in WW2 fighting Hydra and Nazis, fifth columnists, etc. The modern day stuff could be related to these old stories, organizations based on the past, grandkids of old enemies etc. He needs a better rogue's gallery, in my opinion.

[@Ocelot835]

To me sounds like a pointless backtracking. Besides, "revealing truth from the past" is a plot point of almost every single Cap's stories since the 1980s and only Brubaker actually made it work well

[@christophertaylor9100]

@@Ocelot835 Oh, I think there's plenty of audience out there for seeing Cap's adventures in the past.

[@Ocelot835]

@@christophertaylor9100 as a special or limit series maybe, but I can hardly see it working as an ongoing. Most people will just think about it as an unneeded filler and just skip, imho

[@keng.2468]

I've been reading Cap and the one thing I find strange is that the book feels like a Ghost Rider title with all this demon stuff. Just so weird.

[@DCToonTime]

Everything is about demons in Marvel comics these days. And a lot of the Indys. Something is very wrong on planet earth.

[@doomedhuh]

I couldn't even tell what was going on in JMS run

[@chrischreative2245]

Me either but the usual people say “slow burn” for 36 issues then something “might” happen. I’m sure something to do with trump

[@ikecarr5989]

Kurt Busiek once said he a pitch for a Cap run. But said it was probably too old fashioned. But as Agent Colsen said in AVENGERS,"Maybe Old Fashioned is what we need."

[@WarriorsforInfoTV]

Retailers are reporting that shelf copies are hard to sell of ASM, Cap, X-men, Avengers, Iron man, and Hulk. Even Ultimate Spidey is dipping in sales. Marvel needs Marc Silverstri back on X-men. Bagley & Micheline on ASM, Kurt Busiek on Avengers, and so on. Spend the $$$ and get the talent back in the door Marvel comics!!

[@trask5909]

Lifelong Cap collector. Dropped all comic collecting during Coates’’ Cap run. Go Royals!

[@chrischreative2245]

Who could have ever foreseen this from the first issue?? Me and others actually

[@DCToonTime]

I no longer buy any Marvel comics and only a couple DC titles. Only Indy comics. Wokeness and an anti-USA vibe has completely turned me off to their modern output. And on a local level, I do not buy any comics at my local comic book shop as it has gone completely woke as well. From the outside you can barely tell it’s a comic book store. Every lefty cause and crusade has their posters plastered all over the front window. I refuse to spend one cent there and buy my titles from an online store.

[@HERITAGE12]

i was NEVER so disappointed in a run than this one. for the life of me i dont understand it either. JMS did the "rivers of truth' speech from cap to spidey during civil war that was SO fkn good they put it in the cap movie (though coming from sharon at peggys funeral then) . he WROTE the story for THOR 1 which in my opinion was the HARDEST sell of a character in the phase one era. in his own line of books he did rising stars and midnight nation- two absolute blinders, and is early spidey run was brilliant, so the bloke KNOWS super heroic fiction. i was buzzing BIG time for a return to form of captain america with a focus on his morality and action. and we got "captain america : landlord" instead. honestly by issue 3 i was gone. if someone of JMSs ability CANT do a decent cap book then i think he's finished at marvel as a book as none of the other idiots actually BELIVE in his ideals- which is how we got hydra cap in the first place . in a way it reminds me of transformers at IDW. they just CANT do the book that needs to be done. its sad but there ya go.

[@stryker-reclassified]

I read midnight nation about 5 years and it was so damn good, made me a lifelong Gary Frank fan too. Rising stars looks fantastic for the art and story but I haven't read that yet, plan to one day though!

[@themultiversalmagpie7827]

I’ve recently become a huge Captain America fan reading so many 1970s-80s I want so bad for them to get a better writer but maybe they should just stop until they can find one

[@MaverickhunterXZero]

Captain America hasn't been Captain America ever since Secret Wars. He's just an imaginary friend in the shape of him to be used as a sock-puppet for the writer's politics.

[@DavidSmith-dp6vb]

In fairness to Remender, his whole schtick at Marvel was weird twists on characters (Frankencastle, Agent Venom). Some worked better than others…

[@TMF979Resurge]

At least Agent Venom took pretty well, the only good thing about Cullen buns. run was Mania, and I have way better ideas of how to utilize Andi I like the concept of his run on cap with dimension Z, but definitely not the execution, and I hate John Romita Jr's art in it, I especially hated the Zola implanting this interface gel thing inside his chest to take control of him, it made no fucking sense, and Ian and Jet were utilized poorly I'm not Even gonna Get into the whole Iron Nail turning him old and Sam taking over, because I know the exact type of conceit behind that entire era Bucky already did it better in Brubaker's run

[@jasonirizarry9619]

Disney Comics has no desire to succeed, just print toilet for dentists that like mini poster cover variants.

[@doctorogre1777]

Captain America is why I always, ALWAYS play a paladin or a sword and shield hero in EVERY game that lets me. Cancel Marvel Comics. Literally the only cool Captain Americas I've seen in a decade come from video games made by Asians.

[@MrEdWeirdoShow]

Out here in LA during the '90s, the radio show Hour 25 after Mike Hodel died, was taken over by Harlan Ellison. But he couldn't stay there forever, so JMS took over from Harlan. He did a very good job, but apparently not such a good job on the Cap book. (BTW, history buffs can take note that Mike's dad alledgedly turned out to be the Black Dahlia killer.) So bad mojo all the way around that scene.

[@Improbi]

Happy that Wes buying these crappy comics & they can be written off as a business expense.

[@mikem288]

In defense of JMS' run on Spider-Man, he didn't want to do the One More Day reboot. Editorial forced it on him and it got to a point where he felt that they were so controlling, he wanted his name removed from the book credits. JMS did do one shit story in 'Sins Past', though later said he planned to retcon it but couldn't once he'd left the book. Marvel has in many ways been pricing so high (and other lemmings following suit) as well as glutting the market with shit that it keeps casual readers from grabbing up these extra books like Cap. I expect Marvel will concoct some other "shocking" direction for Cap and then relaunch with a more compliant writer.

[@alexandrechampagne4948]

Exactly, Cap need a story saga around more realistic threat. Like in the beginnings.

[@pweddy1]

Ta-Nehisi Coates was hired because he’s an activist. He had no background in comics. And you’re right he does hate America. But those were all the reasons they hired him. Ethan Van Sciver Stated in a KZbin video that somebody came to him while he still worked for mainstream comics bragging that they got a communist to write for G.I. Joe. These people don’t deserve your money. Let the current companies in the comic book industry fail. Because that’s the only way this gets better. You have to have somebody who says we’re not focus on activism we’re selling a product. You can never run a successful business when all your employees are Marxist.

[@stephenhailey369]

I checked out after the theatre thing. The best parts of the run were the flashback stuff in old Manhattan where Steve is working with historical Jewish gangsters to fight the nazis. Could have juxtaposed that against a similar situation in modern times. The demon thing and the theater fairies were ass.

[@felixirkinas2750]

Way back in 2005, (Right?!?!) I was happy reading my 2 favorite Super heroes, Spider-man and Captain America!!! Civil War goes down and Cap is killed and Peter and Mary Jane are erased...WTF!!! And ever since then, I have been waiting for a New Dawn to emerge for Spidey and Cap. Nick Spencer had a fairly decent run with Spidey, after screwing us with Hydra Cap...But, No one has been able to step up and flourish with Captain America! Why??? I was cautiously optimistic when JMS was picked for Cap but, my opinion about JMS was fairly low to begin with..."One More Day" always hurts when I think about it!!! So, It looks like another disappointing attempt at Real Good decent Comics. What can you do if the folks at Marvel are just so inept and not interested in telling good stories, not looking forward to anything they do at Marvel...Done!!! Yo Joe, At least we have a decent crew at Skybound, so Far!!!

[@DavidMartinez-ce3lp]

[@InfamyOrDeath-__-]

Back when I read Marvel I thought that the Cap comic was the A list book, I thought it was the biggest comic. I knew nothing about comics other than the story on the page. And I actually liked the Csp comics then, around 2005-2011.

[@thebluewind5733]

Marvel has been running classic heroes through the mud for so long, I'm not surprised that the Modern mindset hate heroism and paragon-like personalities and only interested in the cynical non traditional heroics of these heroes. Hell, Peter Parker can't grow up, and Marvel is open about hating all there heroes unless they have the modern mindset. Women can't be attractive unless their evil, men can't be masculine and has to have some form of feminine undertone, if your not Kamala Kahn or Miles Morales, you're not importent. That seems to be the Marvel montra.

[@treymykel]

I'm not going to lie I know how much people hate to Nick Spencer run but actually enjoyed it because I read of interest standoff that I already knew that when they brought young Captain America back I said oh this Captain America isn't the Steve Rogers that we all know and love it is another Steve Rogers that was changed by the cosmic cube so when I read the Nick Spencer Captain America run which is actually pretty thrilling I was like oh okay this is pretty cool it shows that Nick Spencer do have potential if he was writing classic Captain America. But you're right The problem with Marvel is they hate Steve Rogers and they've been trying to replace him with Sam Wilson because they want a black Captain America they don't want Captain America to be white again even though it's just like the foundation of America was through white men not black people but you know diversity and inclusion because they keep going back and forth between Sam not being Captain America now he's Captain America now he's the leader of avengers and they're also giving him another solo run and remember last time when they did Sam Wilson Captain America run with Steve Rogers Captain America they made sure that Sam Wilson's Captain America was the main Captain America title while Steve Rogers Captain America story wasn't all that important it's just weird honestly but like you said we do need some people who care about America who wants Captain America to be truth justice in American way like Superman is just kind of sad to see cuz we know this is what Marvel wants cuz like I said before with the Nick Spencer run if they didn't have to do that whole setup for secret empire and you know making an evil Captain America I think that could have been a great Captain America run like for a normal Captain America You know what I'm saying it just kind of sucks to see this destruction of all of these legacy characters you know everybody's doing terrible in Marvel comic books it is just like damn what character is doing good you know

[@InfamyOrDeath-__-]

Coats on Captain America was the most hilarious thing ever, if there’s one person in the entire world that you wouldn’t put on a Cap run, they actually put on. It’s just hard to even comprehend what’s going on at the top of these companies.

[@LigerFan]

IMHO “Sins Past” was the worst JMS Spider-Man. I think the problem with the “Secret Empire” story was LEAVING Cap the Cosmic Cube-retconned “Cap is a Hydra sleeper agent” when the story was over.

[@ryanstoick601]

I just don't understand it... One More Day, Sins Past, Superman: Grounded, Magical, mystical spider powers JUST to give Peter Parker organic web-shooters like the films, it... MIGHT just be that st/Sraczynski sucks at writing super-heroes. Why can't the industry figure this out? Having a reputation in another storytelling medium does not always translate to another...

[@lobaoguara2332]

Yes, I hate this constant of absorbing what other media do even though sometimes this makes the comic better is the exception and not the rule because what fans like in one media may not like in the original.

I cannot see myself buying another Marvel comic. If you don't respect me and my values, I will NEVER support your product. I don't watch sports, I don't listen to most music (certainly don't buy any), and won't buy comics from Marvel or DC.

[@wmwhitedevil]

I saw a couple things out of NYCC, Ultimate Wolverine seems promising with Chris Condon writing, it sounded intriguing. The other was a 5 issue mini Dr. Doom series in the 616, but it is going to be written by Ryan North, who basically kills all my enthusiasm for this whole One World Under Doom era we're entering in Marvel. I will still check it out, but I can not help but feel extremely disappointed and let down once again. This could have been, should have been great, but that now seems unlikely.

[@shengcer]

I had no idea Captain America still had a book. I wish they could get Ed Brubaker back. His run was amazing. But Steve Rogers hasn’t recovered from the whole Hydra Cap thing.

[@treymykel]

Yeah you right about that which is kind of crazy because if Marvel had promoted adventure standoff where Steve Rogers become young again people will realize like oh this Captain America has been replaced because Red skull had the power cosmic and was tricking the power cosmic into creating the Captain America that will be under him so I wasn't surprised by anything when I saw Captain America said hail Hydra I was like oh so this Captain America is under the control of red skull that means the real Captain America is somewhere trapped even though Nick Spencer said he wasn't I was like come on now if you read avengers standoff you already knew he was trapped in an alternate place while a fake Captain America takes his place lol

[@CryptidZeker415]

The first volume of JMSs cap run was a breath of fresh air out of what we've been getting. And honestly, I am glad he was the one to write the story of what Steves life was like between his mother dying, to the time he enlisted. Cause to be honest, any modern day writer would use that chance to say something problematic about Steve's life like have him or his mother use the N word. His second volume, they flat out turned that into an X Men book. To introduce leftover mutants that none of the X Men writers wanted to use so they dumped them on caps book The upcoming 3rd volume, I'm just hoping it sticks the landing.

[@smithe6]

[@JamesAAnthony]

Iron Man probably won't improve with the new writer on the upcoming series.

[@jasonhannon3009]

It might just be me, but I always thought that he was just a mediocre writer. The past three runs of Captain America I’ve dropped after issue 6.

[@JosephPeluso-ce4tm]

I dropped the JMS Cap book after four issues. it was boring. Cap should be tackling Baron Zemo, Baron von Strucker, Hydra, AIM, The Serpent Society, Crossbones, Batroc, and the freakin' RED SKULL!!

[@death-king1834]

I generally still don't know how Marvel is still printing comics at this point. Same with DC. It's hard for me to believe it's soley because of quote on quote ''Disney money'' cause let's be honest here, Disney could give two f**ks less about the comic books. They only care about the characters and using them for movies and shit. And the movies, which could have great for getting new generations into the comics, has been wasted by the fact that Marvel did nothing to bank on this fact. When Captain America, Thor, and Iron Man were all killing it at the box-office, in the comics, Tony was killed off and replaced with some insufferable black girl, Thor was disgraced and replaced with a female version, and Steve Rogers was revealed to be a secret Hydra Agent.

[@CryptidZeker415]

As for why this run is ending, I think it's because they want to make room for Sam Wilsons cap book to get the spotlight. So that it can have the legacy numbering. They tried having Sam and Steve have their own separate cap books at the same time and it just didn't work out so again, I think this is just them wanting to give Sam the spotlight for now

[@john-zi9su]

Straczinski wrote one of the most terrible runs on Amazing Spider-Man. The mystical nonsense origins of his powers, Gwen banging Norman and giving birth to twins (though retconned as clones), and of course One More Day. His Thor run was boring and his Cap run was lame. He was never a good fit for any comic.

It would almost be funny if it wasn't such an iconic character as Captain America. JMS just sucks..

[@miamikaos5958]

Almost all of these golden age superheroes need to be rebooted in more realistic concepts fitting the 21st century. 1st, Cap after all this time would be into politics or works very close with the government. As much as they’d hate it he would also be a conservative or independent at best, but no way would Steve Rogers be cool with killing babies and illegal immigration. The Fantastic Four should hardly ever be on earth, they should be space adventurers. The X-Men shouldn’t be hated or feared, mutants should be the most famous people on the planet. Nightcrawler would have the biggest podcast on earth.

[@kingofthemanties]

Cap can't have a solo book if he is to mentor a new Hawkeye.....and maybe fall in love again

But this is the thing JMS does. He never planned beyond this. I'm surprised he didn't leave this run incomplete after issue 8.

[@TheUnseenFenianHand]

I was excited for JMS on Cap. Plus just about anyone is an upgrade on Lanzig & Kelly, one of the worst writing teams in the history of comics. And it started well with that very solid initial arc. However everything else since has been a really bad fit for the character and really quite poor aside from that. JMS seemed to have story he wanted to write and decided he was shoehorning it in here regardless of whether it works or not. Despite liking him as a writer I’m glad it’s cancelled. I just hope marvel make a good decision for the next one.

Stracynzki is one of my favorite writers, too bad I don't read Marvel because Stracynzki on a Cap book definitely would have sold me in the past..I love Babylon 5, I love Thor actually being treated like a fucking God of War and practically killing Tony for what he and Reed did during Civil War ( even though I hate that story and it marks one of my biggest ted flag beginning of the end of Marvel comics stories that never should have been written ) cloning him and using the clone against other heroes then making him walk his ass out of the woods and slink home like the bitch he is. Michael always does good to great characterization in my humble opinion and after all the great military characters from Sinclair to Bestor being fantastically written with their own complex thoughts, motivations, ideals, interpretations of ideals, and philosophical discussions on the nature of war, freedom, duty, truth, peace, etc from a whole host of perspectives I trust even if Stracynzki isn't a "super patriot" he would understand and write Cap from Caps worldview, not his own. That really is a loss for you guys still reading Marvel. Sounds like the book had potential but they probably can't afford to pay Michael even if the book does good for a modern Marvel book. Real talent costs money and their continued hiring of garbage talent destroying characters and tanking book after book has reduced the potential audience so much that even Stracynzki can't pull in enough of an audience to warrant his paycheck. Dark times at Marvel. It's ok though, I'm sure they'll create themselves another dumpster fire soon to get some light in there.😁🤣😂🤣 Anyways, have a good day Wes. Peace ✌️🕊️
