So now @Marvel's latest attempt to sell comic books makes Captain America turn against US forces and side with the communists during the Vietnam War? In Fantastic Four: Life Story #2, written by Mark Russell with art by Sean Izaakse and colors by Nolan Woodard, Captain America attacks American soldiers in an effort to free communist prisoners held by the US.

Remember that Marvel is owned by Disney so they get equal blame (to me)! No matter how you frame stuff like this, it is LEFTist masturbation for their distortion of history.

Now pardon me while I go BARF!!!

The CCP does NOT own Marvel, and don’t you DARE say that they do!

It is important to clearly identify the writer, the artist and the editor of this abomination. They must be personally held accountable. Know thy enemy.

Imagine the liberal horror if we had a superhero comic depicting the hero offing BLM, ANTIFA, CRT, and General Milley loser types.

If only.

Yes. And of course we can ONLY imagine it. Because the left actually take action to advance their agenda.

And the right cries and wring their hands about it.

They, the ChiComs, don't have to 'own' Marvel if they can get Marvel to be 'fellow travelers' in the march Leftwards! If you were being satirical, forgive my blowback but this is revisionist history as entertainment and it reinforces the LEFTist crap from our schools!

Marvel is Woke beyond hope, the editors, writers and artists all intentionally destroying the brand and the industry

it’s all agitprop now, and serves the State.

Personally, if someone were to ask me, I’d say It’s Clobbberin’ Time!

Crap. All political nonsense aside I really like the captain America in marvel movies.
The fight scene in the elevator in Winter Soldier is crazy cool.

It was only a matter of time that history and morality would be learned through comic books. After all we get “news” through yahoo.

Do many actually buy/read comic books anymore? When I was a lad, you could buy them just about anywhere for a dime or twelve cents and they had say 25 pages. (When I was really young the standard was 52 pages). Now aren’t they kind of a niche item?

I wonder how many people know the derivation of 'Yahoo'? In the 4th book of "Gulliver's Travels" [Jonathan Swift 1726], Yahoos are human-form brutes with filthy habits, entranced by 'shiny things', while being servants to a race of intelligent horses, the Houyhnhnms. When Gulliver is cast upon the shores of their country, he is considered a Yahoo by the Houyhnhnms and grows to hate the association!

I find that people who use Yahoo for their news to be much in common with these dull brutes from Swift's satirical classic!

We have a store in town trying to be like the one in The Big Bang Theory. The clientele looks about the same too.

I see the old Archies and lightweight stuff by the checkout counters at local grocery stores. Nothing like the old Sgt Rock or Classics Illustrated comics like I used to buy in the 60's.

Good point and valid history. However, 'niche items' do not have massive conventions, movie arcs that bring in millions of dollars and massive corporate take-overs. Comics have morphed from our youth to a longer format young adult/millennial -oriented illustrated episodic novel. Their cost now exceeds what I, in my youth, used to pay for a Heinlein or L'Amour paperback that was in the next rack over!
