He's actually a very interesting character. He's a tweener character like Winter Soldier but he has more layers.

He's who the Homelander character in The Boys is based off of. He's Captain America with a unhealthy, ruthless, psychotic patriotism. He's usually a good guy when the government has good intentions, but that's a case by case basis.

In the comics they send him to Iraq or whatever countries the US are at war with at the time because that's the only place where that kind of mentality is actually beneficial. Every time he's in the US he's always getting into something

Hes Been a personal favorite since he was introduced as the psychotic Captain America back in mark gruenwalds run. The good guy going bad trope may have been overdone but I thought here it worked.

Having him watch as the watchdogs kill his parents in front of his eyes, Then descend into a murderous lunatic all while rocking caps colors was disturbing. But i liked it, That whole Captain America No More storyline is great.

Just to let you guys in on something.

This is Winter soldiers show featuring falcon.

I know this because winter soldier is unmasked in promotional and front, while falcon is masked and in the back. This makes it look like winter soldier is the star character.

Somebody needs to educate y'all on patterns used in modern society.

This might be another bait and switch using a black character but treating said black character like shyt.

Yall complain but they do it again because you guys fall for it again. Basically they racist and treat yall like suckas.

They racist cause there writer is gonna give all the good shyt to winter soldier while falcon will get lame shyt in comparison.

Screentime is irrelevant, it's what happens during the screentime. Nick fury gets screentime but he don't do shyt, he isn't interesting that's why he is black.

If you like the winter soldier then whatever.

Never trust a black male and white male tv show to use the black male respectfully.

Even in white male tv shows where there are two white male leads one of them is usually the comedic relief for a reason. There is only room for 1 star, and it ain't Anthony Mackie he is the image and personality of safe negro.

Safe = boring in entertainment but Mackie probably doesn't know or doesn't care. There is a reason Harley blew up but not Batgirl or Robin.

shyt Robin got how many pushes now, and Falcon is corny by default due to iron man and war machine doing his gimmick better.

Tldr: Y'all corny as hell for supporting a shytty black character just cause he's black.

There are rumors that Falcon will do the safe negro thing and say that he doesn't actually want The shield at the end. Also Chris Evans may be signing a new Marvel contract.....I am also suspicions

That's how it went down in the comics. He had a hate mob in his comic that basically hated his guts and begged him to stop being captain america and he listened to the people and gave it back even though Rogers kept telling him that he didn't want him to give it up.

It was written well but it was like shooting yourself in the foot. If you make the entire plotline about people not wanting him to be captain america or that he's not worthy of being captain america then the readers are going to start feeling the same way. :francis:

I be hyped for this shyt, but then I just remember that they air this shyt weekly :beli:

That just pisses me off about all these disney+ shows
Weekly release wouldn't bother me as much if they had more content. Like this is every friday ok, but i get to watch three or four shows every week too that would work. But they do these shows one at a time. so i basically use disney + for 30 minutes a week with months long breaks in between.
need to at least have 3 shows running concurrently for weekly realeases

Thats not exactly true he then became cap again during the hydra cap stuff he gave it back to cap in the ending because he felt Steve needed to regain the American people’s trust .
However I do think the follow up was screwed up for Sam . Marvel definitely dropped the ball after the momentum he had with his run . I hope they revisit I

True, but secret empire was terrible and to me it was an excuse to give him the shield back
