Not My Captain America

Sam Wilson may not be the Cap America we deserve but he definitely is the one we need. Is it on the nose in its cultural commentary? Definitely. Do I care? Not an ounce. The writing is brilliant and the characters are so lovable. I am so down for Sam Wilson, cranky old man Steve Rogers, the amazing Misty Knight, Credence dealing with his mental illness, and the new comer as Falcon!

I enjoyed this. I was jumping in a little blind–I'm not a big reader of Captain America comics but I liked Sam Wilson from the movies so I picked this up and was clearly in the middle of some Marvel Universe shit? I followed it OK, I liked Sam's sense of humor, I loved Misty Knight, I loved Captain America helping out immigrants & the tribute paid to those who help immigrants with water & supplies in the desert. The animal-human hybrid genetics experiment plot was...bonkers...even by Marvel standards? But pretty fun!
