Jack Monroe: Nomad Appreciation 2020

[Adam-X]

I am a huge fan of Jack Monroe/Nomad... Still bummed that he's been bumped off... hopeful, that it's revealed that the super soldier serum kicked in - and he's actually alive... takes up the Scourge ID (like he did in Thunderbolts) and goes after Winter Soldier, so that the two have an even fight.

I'd love for him to come back as "Scourge" like he did in Thunderbolts, gun for Winter Soldier, have the two of them duke it out - and eventually come to terms with one another. And then he keeps the equipment from his Scourge days, but re-adopts the name "Nomad" and rides off on a motorcycle.

I'd love for the character to appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Captain America #303 Mar 1985
"Double Dare!"
Captain America and Nomad return home after their encounter
with mercenaries Zaran and Machete wherein the baddies stole Cap’s shield.
He tells Bernie he is determined to get it back,
while Jack blames himself for his poor performance in the battle….

Batroc and his two allies deliver Cap’s shield to the sinister Arons at Stane Industries where Dr Myron McLain,
who created the mysterious alloy that the shield was constructed of,
is forced to try to recreate the discovery by the threat of harm to his family….

That evening, Cap and Nomad go out again in search of the villains, splitting up to cover more ground.

Meanwhile, at a nearby bar, Machete and Zaran are tired of Batroc’s constant boasting of his superiority.
They bet him their shares of the fee from Stane that he can’t beat Captain America
and the drunken French mercenary takes them up on it. Batroc leaps through a window to head
out in search of Cap and the other two follow, hoping to laugh at their leader taking a beating….

Nomad returns to the scene of the crime but he finds no clues,

despairing at his shortcomings as a superhero.
Elsewhere, Batroc locates Cap and challenges him to a fight.
The mercenary thinks he has the upper hand because Cap is without his shield while Cap is confused
by the situation—until he realizes that his foe is drunk, making him more dangerous and reckless.
Cap makes a bargain: he will let Batroc take a good shot at him if his foe reveals where his shield is.
Batroc names Stane International and launches a powerful kick at the immobile hero, sending Cap flying into a wall.
Cap drags himself to his feet and punches Batroc’s lights out with a single blow.
Zaran and Machete take their money from their conquered leader’s pockets and run for their lives.
Cap heads out to recover his shield….

You can count me in among the numerous fans who want to see the return of Jack Monroe.

Hopefully, when he's brought back, he will continue being Scourge!

[616MarvelYear is LeapYear]

IMO Falcon and Winter Soldier Disney+ series is to have the marvel character Jack Monroe be introduced as the MCU Scourge.

That was such an excellent Scourge design. Shame it hasn't been brought back

Awesome! If this really happens and it's not just a rumor, then I'm totally looking forward to it.

Agreed. They really outdid themselves this time.

[Adam-X]

Jack Monroe as Scourge on Disney+ wouldn't make much sense. Because it's not like Cap had anyone else but Bucky, because of the way they did the movies.
It'd just sort of be a throw away.

I’ve got a feeling he might end up being the new Iron Patriot who’s set to appear in Cap. 23, which I’m more than okay with. I’ve been waiting for someone to Red Hood Jack since his death.

Maybe Hydra-Cap brought him back and when Jack refused to join up he was put on ice somewhere. it would be interesting for Jack to remember that Bucky shwacked him and they do NOT get along...

I appreciate the opinion that some have for Jack being Scourge but I would much rather him come back as Nomad.

As much as it pained me to see him killed off the way Brubaker wrote him with having the delusions was well done. I’d like to see Jack come back and see the revisited.

The ongoing was quite groundbreaking for its time, having stories based around the LA riots and later AIDS.
