Bird of Prey! The Sam Wilson Appreciation

[Digifiend]

You have to admit, Eli SHOULD have been part of Sam's supporting cast if it were possible.

I think that is a cop out to not use him. YOu cannot have Sam or whoever run around as Patriot and folks not ask where is Eli. Sooner or later folks are going to get tired of excuses.

You got Sam being listed as the first black one-the Eli Bradley we have seen would have ran to New York to tell Sam off and now his code name is taken?

It's not like folks don't want to use him-Mosaic's writer hinted at it and you have to ask if Eli was suppose to be the one in that bed dying instead of Rage.

Sure, but if the lawyers don't want to pay the creators ( or whatever the situation is), there's nothing other writers can do about it.

I wouldn't have minded seeing that. Or even Eli himself being Capt America.

I think new Patriot is Night Thrasher. Sam is still appearing in another SE tie-in in the Black getup still right? Maybe NT is paying him some homage.

Then you give the creator the chance to buy the rights. Much like Priest did with Xero and Stuart Moore did with Bloodhound.

if Eli's going to be apprenticed to anyone, I would suggest Sam.

Same here...

Just bring him back already.

I'd probably prefer Eli as Sam's partner then the current Falcon...

[PaxHouse]

In case you didn't notice; Sam/Cap was seen (obvious Pre-SECRET EMPIRE considering the current chaos within his own CA Series) within Jessica's party in SPIDER-WOMAN #17.

Yeah, new Falcon is kinda forgetable. It's like he was just created so people won't think Sam will become Falcon again a week from now.

Yeah, new Falcon is kinda forgetable. It's like he was just created so people won't think Sam will become Falcon again a week from now.

.....And yet, Marvel was still able to utilize him within the SECRET EMPIRE: UPRISING Miniseries; with the First Issue to be released Next Week.

^Uprising is a one-shot. Though I think Champions #10 will act as a follow-up.
