Sam would be fine. He’s a good man. He didn’t even want to be Captain America. That’s humility :wow:. It’s not like we’re giving the PEDS to Jose Canseco. We’re giving them to Roberto Clemente. :wow:

I do hope he gets the upgrade, though.
He didn't need it in the comic. But then again he has the ability to summon birds to attack you in the comic. So we'll see.

Shortly after The Falcon and The Winter Soldier episode 5 began streaming on Disney+, Vanity Fair published an article that shared new information on Louis-Dreyfus' MCU future. They were told by sources close to production that she was originally meant to debut as Valentina Allegra de Fontaine in Black Widow. There is no information on the size of the role or if Marvel Studios is changing this plan due to the Phase 4 release slate reshuffling. All that is known at this time is that Louis-Dreyfus was scheduled to appear in Black Widow, and that might still be the case when the film releases in theaters and on Disney+ this July.

Hopefully, there is very little interaction, story time between fired Cap and most of the focus on Flag Smashers. Since she's mixed Black, I can't see her surviving next week. But since time is limited just leave fired Cap alone.

I’m really not sure what’s up with this Power Broker storyline ( I figured Karli was being used from jump to stir things up) cause if Sharon can pinpoint Walker on satellite and has Karli’s cell number then she could definitely find Karli if Sharon were the broker.

Maybe the broker is dead and Sharon is just using the resources to get back at the US. Similar to Walker.

The scene with Elaine is kinda clunky but I think what she can be a beast if they use her right.
She's a solid actress that could fit well into the MCU, I think.
Hopefully a new villain that they flesh out a bit.



Also, question for those who know the comics well:
What role, if any, did Hydra have in the Isaiah Bradley storyline?
If the government detained and experiments on him...it seems would have had to be them, no?

I don't recall Hydra being a part of Bradley's story at all. To keep it a bean, Hydra isn't the omnipresent crew in the comics like they are in the MCU.

I've been critical of this show, but I really liked this episode. Cacs will definitely not like it, which I love

Really liked Carl Lumbly and Mackie in this. Overall the show still feels a little slow moving for 6 episodes.

Its cool that they brought in the Wakandans hooking Sam up with a suit/wings like in the comics.

In the comics his suit was weaved with vibranium so he could absorb impacts and his wings were made of vibranium so he could use them as a shield against lasers, bombs and shyt.

Also they were hard light for a while. T'challa worked on them himself.
