We didn't plan on it, but our Patron asked for it... so we covered CAPTAIN AMERICA! Anthony & Doc examine the Sentinel of Liberty, and what kind of responsibilities rest upon his broad, massive, sculpted shoulders. Listen now! SHOW NOTES: Intro Shoutout to Stacking Benjamins podcast – (10:04) Background (13:21) Created by Joe Simon & Jack Kirby in Captain America Comics #1 (March 1941) from Timely Comics Steve Rogers is a sickly kid from New York who volunteers for a government experiment to create a super soldier – the scientist responsible is killed after Rogers undergoes the procedure, leaving him the only result Is given a bulletproof shield made of vibranium by FDR, and befriends young James Buchanan Barnes, aka Bucky Battles the Red Skull, a Nazi super soldier, and other enemies of America and freedom Cap and Bucky are presumably killed trying to defuse a bomb on a plane flying over the North Atlantic as World War II was coming to a close Others carried the mantle of Captain America during the 1950s Steve Rogers discovered encased in ice by Avengers, the super soldier serum keeping him alive in suspended animation – revived by the team and joins them Befriends the Falcon, and falls in love with Sharon Carter, the niece of his wartime love Peggy Carter During the 1970s, Steve becomes disillusioned with the American government and gives up mantle of Captain America, becoming “Nomad”, a man without a country – takes up the suit again when he realized he could support the ideals without supporting the government In the 1980s, he once again leaves the Captain America identity behind when the government forces him to work for them – becomes The Captain – John Walker becomes new Captain America – they battle, and Steve resumes his title, while Walker becomes US Agent In “Civil War”, Cap leads the Anti-Registration side against Tony Stark’s pro-reg faction – he orders his team to stand down after realizing the fight is costing too much Gets shot by assassin (revealed to be a brainwashed Sharon Carter) and “dies”, but his body phases out of space-time until he is returned to the present by the Red Skull Hands the Captain America mantle to Bucky, and takes over SHIELD until Bucky dies, at which point he resumes being Captain America The serum in his body gets neutralized, and he rapidly ages to a 90 yr old man – Falcon takes over as Captain America, while he coordinates Avengers missions After the Avengers: Standoff event, a girl named Kobik uses the Cosmic Cube to rewrite history, making Steve a HYDRA double agent since the beginning – although this was reverted, the public does not trust Steve Rogers Issues (19:38) Man out of time – has to adapt to all the changes associated with the new period Has to be the moral center of the country/world (30:52) Struggles with representing America – ideals vs government vs people (38:19) Treatment (54:04) In-universe Out of universe (59:41) Skit (67:03) Ending (74:46) References: Tony Stark episode - Anthony - 16:38 Rip Van Winkle - Anthony - 21:35 "What Have You Done For Me Lately" by Janet Jackson - Anthony - 25:49 ENIAC - Anthony - 28:28 Jessica Jones episode - Doc - 32:45 "What Comes Next" from Hamilton - Anthony - 42:13 iTunes: here Google Play: here Stitcher: here TuneIn: here iHeartRadio: here Spotify: here Twitter FacebookE-mailPatreon
We are THRILLED to announce that with this episode being re-posted that all of the past Comic Book Bears episodes which went missing for a time are now back in circulation! On this one from just shy of a year ago, we were five strong in the Comic Book Bears den as Bill, Justin, Matt, Bryan and Steve were all on hand this week. First up, Daredevil's Season 2 on Netflix! Some of the bear boys had finished up their binge watching and chime in about what they thought of this season in which The Punisher and Elektra make their MCU debuts. Then, the long awaited Wonder Woman: Earth One graphic novel by Grant Morrison and Yanick Paquette was recently released and that too comes under the CBB microscope. The (then) current comic talk continued on with Aliens: Defiance, Faith, Avengers: Standoff, The Ultimates, Harley Quinn and Suicide Squad: April Fool’s Day, Injection, The Omega Men, X-Men's Apocalypse Wars, Lois and Clark, Batman, Silver Surfer (complete with an Alicia Masters tangent) and more!
Welcome to Episode 43 of ComicNoobs! This week, we kick off our coverage of Marvel's cash gr- I mean, summer event: CIVIL WAR 2! The first issue we cover is Civil War II #0 (3:31), in which the board is set for what is shaping up to be a pretty damn big event. We're introduced to a new Inhuman who can predict the future, we get a glimpse into what Captain Marvel wants most of all, and we see that She-Hulk really cares about civil liberties (go She-Hulk!). The next issue we cover is the Civil War II FCBD Issue (21:50). In this issue, Rhodey shows up to hang out with the Inhumans and Ultimates just in time to fight Thanos! We also VERY quickly cover the backup story in this one to talk about the new Wasp! Next James Gavsie joins us once again for our "Who Would Win In A Fight" segment(33:46) in which we debate Captain America vs Wolverine! Finally we cover New Avengers #8 (46:50) which is technically an Avengers: Standoff tie-in, but it's awesome so we're covering it anyway. Don't miss this exciting episode!
