News: Captain America is a Nazi

Quote:

Captain America is now basically a Nazi and everyone is freaking out.

Marvel Comics unveiled the shocking twist on Wednesday in the pages of Captain America: Steve Rogers #1, in which Cap utters the phrase "Hail Hydra."

Hydra, for the uninitiated, is an evil organisation hell bent on world domination, and is usually led by Adolf Hitler's personal, fictional super spy, The Red Skull.

No one -- I repeat no one -- is happy about this plot twist, and it's sparked a hastag #SayNoToHYDRACap.

Marvel Editor Tom Brevoort told Time magazine the plot twist has been in the works since late 2014, and deliberately takes a political edge.

In the comic the Red Skull reportedly talks about "criminal trespassers" who "make a mockery" of America's borders, while calling refugees in Germany an "invading army" bringing "fanatical beliefs and crime" to Europe.

Nothing new for Hydra, sure, but as Time points out its similar to rhetoric heard during the current U.S. election.

Captain America may be an aryan wet dream but it doesn't make sense for an embodiment of American pride to be a Nazi.

Connecting anti-mass immigration sentiments in Europe and America to Nazism will guilt trip them and cause them to embrace it.

Disha

firstly, the idea that hydra=nazis is a very basic understanding of what modern hydra actually is

secondly, this will be a TEMPORARY move obviously... probably something to do with skrulls or whatever. they want to sell issues and guess what? it's working lmao

when cap was created by two jewish men as a political figure against the nazis..

probably just another gimmick

What's w/ the obsession about Captain America? Why is he so superior and praised more than other superheroes?

Apparently this not a skrull, clone, body double, or anything of the sort. This is how Steve Rogers has always been according to Marvel's executive editor. Apparently we will get the whole reason why he is HYDRA/Nazi as the issues come along.
