Kids in America

The preview for Monday's much-anticipated Captain America #600.

Since disappearing from MySpace a while ago, I thought Joe Quesada's "Cup 'o Joe" interviews were done; apparently not, as he has now resurfaced on CBR with a new setup. The full preview (10 pages) is there, along with one for the upcoming Uncanny X-Men/Dark Avengers crossover and some peaks at Kyle Baker's Deadpool #900 (heh heh).

This scan, from the "The Youth of Today" segment of Cap #600, follows Rikki Barnes, the Bucky the Heroes Reborn universe (our Bucky's AU granddaughter) as she stalks Eli "Patriot" Bradley. She cracks his "secret" ID in record time (though apparently they already go to the same school).

Kate: "Back off, bitch. I will fucking cut you!"

More on topic: isn't he buried in Arlington? Of course, perhaps that's just his feeling. Brubaker always stressed that Steve's legacy was very hotly debated at his passing.

Also, does anyone else think it's not accidental that the Vice Principal looks a bit like Hitler?

Rafael Albuquerque's art looks interestingly different with this D'Armata-style colouring.

	Err, he was tried. That's what being on trial means. He was not convicted however. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, one is the present tense, one is the past tense, indicating completion of the event. As far as I recall, the trial was never completed, thus technically he was never tried. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I thought he was on his way to an arraignment. Exactly what the (federal?) government were going to try him for, I'm not sure. Refusal to register for the Registration Act isn't treason.

If course, I sometimes wonder exactly how far Cap was willing to go and what his "endgame" was for the Registration Act. Civil War parodies have said Cap thought a big fight would solve everything, but he wasn't that thick. It seems to me that if Cap hadn't been frozen before the end of WWII, he would have been careful not to "lose the peace."

he was probably hoping that if he had time to talk and convince the people, and also showed that he and his "Secret Avengers" wouldn't allow other heroes to be imprisoned then the gov't might just give up and decide the law was unenforcible.

It's also possible he felt his friends were OOC enough, and remembered the times The Red Skull infiltrated the gov't that maybe there was some sort of mind control going on
