    I love the JMS era where Peter hung out with Cap a lot, and said once that Cap reminds him of his Uncle Ben
    Same here. And the spoiler for Life Story is perfectly in-character for him.

    This article discusses that in bit. Title is non-spoilers but inner content is not, but it shows the great panel and word-balloon.

    It talks a great deal about who Steve Rogers is and how he's been reinterpreted and how Marvel had issues having Steve take a stance on contemporary America with Zdarsky having Cap tackle Vietnam in a way he could not have in his actual 60s comics.

    Love the article, it does a great job of explaining why they couldn't have Steve take a strong stance against Vietnam during the actual 60's. Gotta wonder, too, and this is something the article doesn't mention, if the Comics Code of Authority would have even allowed it back then.

    Writers back then had to be tricky to get their points across, which is why, though it's heavily implied that it was Richard Nixon who shot himself in front of Steve at the end of the first Secret Empire story, the one that resulted in Steve becoming Nomad, they never actually show his face. Anyway, it's great that they can go back and have Steve take a firm, and utterly in-character stance on the matter.

    I thought I couldn't love Steve Rogers any more than I already do, but here he is, eating pizza with a fork, just like I do (the only correct way to eat pizza, I don't care what my spouse claims). You and me, Steve, you and me.

    That might be Stevil then. He's from Brooklyn. One hand and fold it a little down the center. Lol.

    Got a bit of a shock when I checked my pull-list for next week and Cap wasn't on it. Does anyone know why it was delayed?

    Same, but Fact Channel was actually created in Dan Slott's Amazing Spider-Man run as J. Jonah Jameson's new employer after he was forced to resign as mayor of New York City in the finale of Superior Spider-Man. Still, given the obvious allusion to a certain real-life news channel, I suppose it's right up Coates's alley, and it's not the first time he's used something that debuted in a Spider-Man comic in his own work (see reverbium, basically knockoff vibranium that amplifies instead of absorbs vibrations, created in ASM by Dan Slott, appeared again in Coates's last Black Panther run).

    Ah, didn't know that. Good to know. Thank you.

    Fact Channel was also Silk's employer when she had her own book.

    Steve's in Uncanny X-Men #15 next week:
