Bird of Prey! The Sam Wilson Appreciation

A screengrab of Sam in Lego Avengers.



And some Falcon gear for the Civil War movie.

The Lego version of the movie suit looks a little weird to me. I get why they used it, but I would've preferred his look in Assemble personally. Though maybe that's an option ?

Im sure you all heard the news about Steve returning as Cap to fight a resurgent Hydra, so I wonder if Nomad and Jet Zola will make a return?

Ian and Jet Zola are Remender's characters created specifically for an arc,- so likely not.

It's funny, just before the announcement that Steve was coming back I was thinking about how much I liked the Samcap direction.

I really liked it, it felt permanent because it was such a natural evolution of both Steve and Sam's character arcs, especially since Sam carried over many of the traits that made him unique into the role. Even though I detested how illogical Clint Stevewood is I loved seeing Sam as Captain America. I even thought that there was a chance that the new Captain America/Avengers Lite movie would end with Steve dying and Sam taking up the role (Rather than Bucky) to really cement Sam as the 21st Century Captain America.

It's great to see that Sam is continuing as Cap, and by the same writer so hopefully he wont get overshadowed...but I can't help but feel that this is going to go the way of Dick Grayson as Batman. Before the DC reboot there was a short period where Dick Grayson AND Bruce Wayne acted as Batman and that was thrown out the window with said reboot. I'd rather that not happen to Sam, but with the specter of the "original" Captain America looming, I can't help but feel that Sam's days are numbered.

From today's issue of Avengers.

Marvel Premiere v1 #49, 1979 - Much to their surprise, the Falcon swoops down among the denizens of Harlem.
Frank Miller takes your typical centralized layout and enhances it with telling background details. The woman dropping her groceries adds levity, as does the tricycle-riding child right beside her. The architecture, signage, and water towers all contribute to making the scene naturalistic and convincing. This is the superhero's first solo issue and Miller's few renditions of the character.

Looks like Sam and Jane may be more than a one time deal. Wonder what Misty or even Jet would thing lol.

Looks like Falcon will be getting some toys from Hasbro this time around. Great news. There was virtually nothing from Hasbro when The Winter Soldier came out.

This is cool as heck!

Not bad. Good page.

Any guesses on who the new Falcon is?

No, but he looks oke.

[616MarvelYear is LeapYear]

Claire Temple is back!



Sam will also be showing up in next week's Ant-Man.

What a surprise

We've more or less had it confirmed who the new Falcon is. It's a Mexican boy named Joaquin who had his DNA spliced with Redwing's, so now he has wings.

Joaquin the new Falcon.
