    Reincarnated Jack as The Scourge would be icing on the cake (IMHO):

    Been meaning to comment on this. Yeah, the artwork and story have taken interesting directions lately. This is definitely not Captain America punching out Nazis. Instead, he's involved with poetic, ethereal mystical events. These are events where he has a clear shield that can allow him to view demons and monsters. Upcoming solicits talk about Cap finding and getting "six new change agents under the Front Door Cabaret's protection before they can be found by those who want them eradicated.".

    Woah what? There's nothing about Red Skull, Crossbones, Hydra, or A.I.M. in there.

    But you know what? I'm really down for this. We've seen Cap fighting for freedom against the latest fascist group many times. I'm looking for a change. This seems like a good fit. Indeed, JMS is treading into Neil Gaiman territory, but those elements are interesting. Additionally, Cap has gone beyond his traditional parameters in the past. The Dimension Z storyline comes to mind.

    So, I'm done for change agents and Front Door Cabarets. Let's see where this goes.

    We still get fascists, though not from Cap's usual rogues gallery, except the fascists are, however unwittingly, pawns of even darker supernatural forces that wish to influence humanity into self-destruction by encouraging humanity to embrace its worst impulses and instincts, which fascists play (or prey) upon to gain power for themselves and dominance over others, which in turn universalizes a lot of the overarching story and themes of Captain America, at least in my view.

    What's the difference between MCU Peggy Carter and comics Peggy Carter. Is Sharon the main love interest for Steve in comics? And is there a kind of love triangle or not really.

    Sharon has been the main love interest for Steve in the Captain America comics since at least the 2000s, perhaps before that. Peggy Carter in the comics was originally Sharon's older sister, though she had to be retconned as Sharon's aunt as more decades passed in real life between World War II and Steve's awakening in the present day, making it decreasingly plausible for Peggy to be Sharon's older sister. Beyond the Carters' relation to Steve Rogers/Captain America, Peggy in the comics was part of the French resistance to the Vichy regime in France that surrendered to and colluded with Nazi Germany, as opposed to the MCU version being British and assigned as some kind of liaison to the American Special Scientific Reserve.
