The "NEW" Captain America

[chrisco37]

C'mon....It's not that bad. Kind of a cross between classic and ultimate Cap. Should've just gone with the Ultimate Cap costume, IMO (I think it's the "coolest" version). But, it could be alot worse.

 

And you know they'll change it back in a year or so.

Is it maybe the cap from that new series that is out right now? The one that is not part of marvel continuity? The Chosen, I think it is called?

 

 

Whoops. I didn't see the Newsrama link at the bottom of the initial post. Literacy goes a long ways.

 

I don't mind the outfit or the guns.

...but why does it have to be shiny? It just reeks of a 90's gimmick....

I'm surprised it made the mainstream media. Here's a link interviewing Ross

Whats with the Letter opener?

[Raphael]

it's a hand gun and a hunting knife

 

think Crocodile Dundee - "That's not a knife, THIS is a knife"

 

i'm thinking that the "shiny" element is some sort of armor. my thoughts are that Iron Man/Tony Stark helps convince Bucky/The Winter Soldier to become the new Captain America, to keep the name alive (per Steve Rogers' last words to Tony Stark [Cap #30], and to "save" Bucky [same issue reference].

 

So Tony Stark helps to provide and "enchance" the Captain America costume. Bucky probably wouldn't want to wear the original costume, so Tony convinces him with a shiny new one

[Poe]

The more I think about it the more appropriate it seems. The living symbol of

America should be holding a gun.

I know Marvel has to make money or sell comics but Capt. with a gun,why not Spider-man using baseball bat while they are at it....

...but why does it have to be shiny? It just reeks of a 90's gimmick....

If he spills something on his uniform, it will wipe clean.

Kinda Doc Savage/Bama-like in pose. I'd be checking out the covers of my old Bantam paperbacks if I could still find them.

Someone tell me this doesn't look exactly like Captain America zipping out of a black jumpsuit.

 

[slackjawcomics]

I never thought of that, he sure does.

Way to go JC. You ruined it. This new Captain America is like the acrobat from Strange Tales 114 except he's just a Chip'n Dales stripper. He doesn't even fight crime, he just fights back middle age house wives. It's only a squirt gun for his performance not a real gun. And those of you wondering about the water bottle. Well it's just to get him wet for his strip tease act. I hear Thor loves it.

This is the kind of stuff that ticks me off about MARVEL. When they screwed around with that recent ANT-MAN wantabe. I just hated the character. Now they mess with Cap. Who's runnin' Marvel? The JOKER? They sure as he'll are trying pretty hard to run the business into the ground. Come on MARVEL get a clue!

All I have to say is that Marvel really screwed the pooch with all the Civil War BS / Death of Captain America/Return of Captain Marvel/Spiderman unmasked/One More Day. All I have to say about moderns right now is "groaaaannn!"
