I'm psyched that Waid is coming back to this book, but......this "training" thing smacks of another Bucky.....one Robin in two universes is enough. Hasn't Cap made several statements concerning the unwarrented dangers of having sidekicks??? ...or was that on in having younger sidekicks.....or maybe it was a roundhouse kick....Hey!!!! This is a kick!!!!

> I am interested in finding out if anyone has a copy of the 2-volume Wow....you're the second person who has come here looking for this in the past month. A friend of mine owns a comic store in Clark Summit, Pa. He has one, but I'm not sure what he wants for it. You should know that it came out 7 years ago and it originally sold for $75 .....I haven't seen many around. Eric's comic shop is called "Unknown Comics" and you should be able to get his number from an information search on the web. I don't have his number or address in front of me....good luck.

We must get our memory chips at the same place!!!! Not drawing a character doesn't hold water as an excuse for lame artwork. Otherwise, I wouldn't dislike Liefeld as much....although Agent America does look pretty good...*snicker* > I guess you're right. I can't really make an excuse for MZ; except, perhaps that he sure had a lot of characters to draw. Another reason for the shabby look of SW, perhaps, is the fact that Bob Layton pencilled a few issues in between, and his work didn't seem up to par either.

Actually, I like the idea of Cap training a replacement. Gives room for Jack Flag to come back or even the Falcon. Who knows, it opens up lots of possibilities for new characters--even a return of USAgent. At any rate, I think this plot device works well with Cap. Yes, there are lots of heroes to stand in the gap if he's gone, but are there very many with the ideals and training of Captain America? Oh yeah, one other point, this could well open up the opportunity for Batroc to become a "good" guy! Remember the conversation he had with Cap just before Cap "died" in Gru's run? The possibilities are endless, and in Waid's hands could result in a damn good story! Happy Birthday, Bubba2 Host = leo-percer.baylor.edu (129.62.3.126) |

Yes, it's just me. Been with PH about a year and a half. I also work for Marvel Mania, since it's another of our concepts. As far as training myself, I guess I was lucky, because I've always loved to read novels in addition to comics. I once worked for TSR as an illustrator, so I've been exposed to fantasy, sci-fi, etc. I may sound like a public service message here, but really, nothing beats a good book for entertainment. Your imagination can tell you things that no movie or comic could. Ah, the wondrous mind..... Ned, what did you do at PH? > Just joking??!??? Come on, when have youi known me to joke???....um bad question. I was in NYC for 5 years worked at PH in NYC for 3 months before landing a good waiting job at Harley and making lots more money.....BTW, it is not such a small world where PH is concerned....they have dozens of restaurants all over the world now... :-) > A Stallone Like Ned -Actually, there are a little over 70!

Also good points, though Cap did not hand pick either John Walker (USAgent) or 50's Cap. The problem which bugs me the most about this idea is that if Cap is looking for a replacement, then that means he intends to someday be gone/fail. That is a poor attitude and one which Cap should not possess. Besides which, the only time he WAS gone was when he was frozen. They rest were self imposed exiles and or government intervention (in which case he couldn't choose his replacement anyway). However, on a good note, despite the fact they never work out, I like when Cap has a partner. It lets us see how truly great Cap is in comparison to his student as well as giving him someone to watch out for, protect. Gives his stories a little touch of family, instead of the lone crusader out to spread freedom and good will throughout America without ever stopping to look back at his own good deeds.

Dam Batroc im likeing you more and more :) I agree comics is for enjoyment not just for investment...that is what is wrong today with comics. They want them just for the art and who made the art. Im tired of this....i collected Cap since #180 and i loved him ever since :) Everyone buys these Images Comics for their value later since some how they come to be 25 bucks for 1 yr out which i laugh at (Spawn) Host = gators33.salsgiver.com (206.67.234.158) |

And Cap practically tries to decapitate the Red Skull in this issue. Maybe when I get the Waid/Garney issues that I'm missing (#446, 447, 454), & actually sit down & read their run, i might enjoy it more, but from just looking through some of it, it doesn't look like it deserves all the praise it gets. > > Rob Well im sorry i think that Waid/Garney has done a great job. I was surprised at it myself...i gave it a chance then i began to love the story line and the art isnt bad at all ether. Thats just what i think. Maybe if you do give it a chance like i did then you may like it too :) If not thats ok everyone has their right to belive in what they want :) > Ok first of any Garney cover was 1000 times better than any of the Robsuck covers!

> >>After careful study of Cap archives, (note I could not find a copy of Captain America #1, 1941) I remember that Marvel released a reprint of #1 a few years back (around 1993?), when they were reprinting the first appearances of Marvel characters. I got the reprints they did for Amazing Spider-Man #1, Avengers #1, and the first Iron Man in Tales of Suspense. But I know they did Cap #1, too. Something to keep a look out for, and it probably isn't expensive. Rob P.S.: Nice job with the Skull research.

Posted by Rob on June 17, 1997 at 12:29:33 PDT Does anyone happen to have some info on this series such as who did the voices and who did the theme song? Or, if not Cap, then the other ones like Thor, Iron Man, etc.? I've never seen a listing of what actors performed the roles or what "group" did the music. I once heard an actor named Keith Andes (?) talking in an old June Allyson movie and he sounded a lot like Cap in the 1960s cartoons, so I assumed that Andes played the role. But, of course, Tony Stark sounded a lot like Cary Grant in those cartoons, and he sure as heck didn't play that role. Does anyone know who performed these parts? I think that the voices of Cap and Thor were great. Also, the music, which is sung by a chorus of male & female singers. Great tunes, great old-time style. I'd really like to get an album of the people who did it (please, no laughter). I have a recording of a 1960s group called The Living Voices, a chorus of male & female singers who worked for Henry Mancini, and they have a similar style to those cartoon themes. So, does anyone know who performed those songs and if they did any other recordings? Rob

Yeah, i only have around five issues of F.M.; they cost me around 3 to 6 bucks each, though. I don't have the Skull one. One of the issues I have reprints an old All-Winners Squad story. Interesting to read that, especially since it shows tension in the group, foreshadowing Stan Lee's Fantastic Four and their arguing. For example in FF #4, the Torch leaves the group & ends up finding Sub-Mariner. In the All-Winners story, the group suspect Namor of treachery and he takes off, but Toro sticks up for Subby and goes with him. That lack of group harmony is a staple of Lee's writing. The All-Winners story also shows Cap as leader of the group, foreshadowing his role as chairman of the Avengers. The All-Winners are gathered at a table in an (unamed?) headquarters, being a real group like the Avengers. Okay, technically, Cap wasn't a member of the All-Winners Squad (as I seem to remember) since that group was formed in 1946 (after Bucky died), but that wasn't explained until the 1970s. Yeah, that bit about Chopin's funeral march was great; I didn't know Englehart got it from an old Cap story. I seem to recall hearing an old Hop Harrigan radio show from the 1940s where that theme was used by a foe; might be mistaken about that, tho; will have to check it sometime.

I think First put them out. > -Inscrutable T I saw a small clip from the film....I do remember the baby being battle savvy..*snicker*...kinda funny. First did put them out. I like the first few issues and then just lost interest. Actually, there was another comic from Aircel called "Samari" and the first few issues were good, but then it got goofy with aliens or some such stuff....oops!!!

Posted by Rob on June 18, 1997 at 15:39:17 PDT CBI Newsarama reports the following about upcoming Cap issues: "- Captain America will find himself in Japan early on in the new run, in an adventure involving a group of rebels opposed to the westernization of their county and culture. Cap obviously won't be a welcome sight. "- Mark Waid also wants to do a Captain America flashback story featuring Cap, Namor, and the original Human Torch, in the untold tale of ATLANTIS' time as a WWII Axis power." Also, the page reports that Jim Steranko (who has been mistakenly pronounced dead on this Cap message board at least twice!) The page also says that Avengers will be starting over with #1...So, has it been confirmed that Cap's numbering will start over from #1 again? Any opinions on that matter? (Personally, I think I'd like to see it go back to the old numbering for the sake of tradition. But if the new Cap is going to be unlike the old series, maybe it should start over.)

Posted by Tobin Kennedy on June 19, 1997 at 11:46:57 PDT Okay it's like this I was re-reading early Captain America and it bugged me that Cap called everyone son. Cap said the reason for this is that he tends to patronize everyone who's younger in the superhero biz and since that's everyone (damn suspended animation). The reason this bugs me is that so he's older but he shouldn't feel older. He was in suspended animation therefore he hasn't have although chronilogically he is older, physically and mentally he's the same age as he was, so why does he feel that he has to call people "son". Oh, the reason I've sinned is because Rob Liefield has/had the same idea. I've already said a thousand hail Jack Kirbys but I still feel wrong. Any advice?

I've never seen a listing of what actors performed the roles or what "group" did the music. > I once heard an actor named Keith Andes (?) talking in an old June Allyson movie and he sounded a lot like Cap in the 1960s cartoons, so I assumed that Andes played the role. But, of course, Tony Stark sounded a lot like Cary Grant in those cartoons, and he sure as heck didn't play that role. Does anyone know who performed these parts? I think that the voices of Cap and Thor were great. > Also, the music, which is sung by a chorus of male & female singers. Great tunes, great old-time style. I'd really like to get an album of the people who did it (please, no laughter). I have a recording of a 1960s group called The Living Voices, a chorus of male & female singers who worked for Henry Mancini, and they have a similar style to those cartoon themes. So, does anyone know who performed those songs and if they did any other recordings? > Rob
