I don't think there was anything wrong with the name or MOST of the FW costume. I just hated the mask.

Posted by Falcon on July 01, 1997 at 07:20:51 PDT > I agree with you Batroc ..... Cap wouldnt be on the board for the big fights but there still are other ones he can go up against :) I for one would love to see a arena board :) Ohhh ya i seen someone said something about the Batman vs Cap story and Batman won...well i hated the whole series of the DC and Marvel....the fights were small and the story behind it sucked and the match up were way out there too :) Who was the one to pick the ones to fight im not sure but they did a bad job at it :) Ohh ya Batman won by luck a sewer pipe of water some how throws water out and hit Cap and Batmat hits him with his boomerage.....well i thought this was lame....and Cap would kick his butt anyday :) Bats so far has 3 Marvel victories under his belt: Hulk, Punisher and Cap. Why? Probably for no other reason than because he's Batman,; it's probably the same mentality that gets these big flashy, expensive, (though crappy) and popular movies made for Batman and a cheap, straight-to-video movie for Cap. His victory over the Hulk was understandable (considering the method used; I only have this info second-hand) and he's simply a better fighter than the Punisher. But Cap should have taken him. But I'm like you; I don't care for the Marvel vs. DC series. No one has to respect what happened there. Falcon Host = mpngate5.ca.us.ibm.com (198.133.29.53) |

> > > > OK, the big Pete vs. Ben controversy started when Ben replaced Peter so what I'm asking is that the original Red Skull(Johan Schmidt) died of old age,yes? But he came back from a cloned body of Steve Rogers and he has all the same memories of the original Red Skull! So what I'm asking is why aren't you guys raising a ruckus that the original Red Skull was replaced by this...this....imposter!! Like the way Peter fans did? And didn't the original Red Skull's ghost appeared? Was this explained? I thought that it was kind of a lame way to bring him back, but there wasn't a large movement for several reasons:
2) Comic fans were not as outspoken in trying to get their opinions heard...I suspect due to #1. 3) Red Skull was known as being evil incarnate. Fans didn't see him monthly, grow to love him, or feel like they knew all of his querks and personality traits. Think about it...how many times have you read Spidey and thought "Geez, Pete wouldn't do THAT!!!". Now try the same thing for the Red Skull.

Well, there are enough variations on reasonable justifications to show that Batman could win, too; Cap VS knockout gas is a good example (although Batman would have to had time to prepare). Besides, a good writer can make just about anything seem plausible. > The stories/matchups were too fragmented and poorly paced.

Posted by Dave Medinnus on July 01, 1997 at 12:14:46 PDT Hiya. Your 'long-lost' moderator is putting on his Moderator hat for a second. Contrary to popular belief, this is NOT a Rob Liefield board. I don't really care if you love him, hate him, admire him, or ignore him. His work on Captain America is fair game, pretty much anything else is not, although when The Fighting American (the new name for Agent America, used under license from the Kirby estate) comes out, go to town. Leave the "Down with Things I judge inappropriate to the board will be summarily nuked. Nothing personal. Now if only I could think of a valid reason for outlawing (instead of discouraging) the "I'm number ***" threads... -DM

My impression (not to be taken as anything but interpretation, neh?) from interviews with Mark Waid is that he's planning on using very little from either the Liefield days (a good thing) or from the Gruenwald era (a bad thing); on a romantic/relationship front he's bringing back the 'cynical-you-and-SHIELD-left-me-to-die-Never-trust-anyone' Sharon Carter (who he resurrected just before the Heroes Reborn bit).

> >>>> You have until 12:00 midnight Friday to answer my Trivia question or I will give the President a toxin that will turn him into a Giant Lizard!!! Alright. I have checked all of the obvious issues that sprang to mind, and haven't been able to dope this one out.Obviously it either wasn't a scene that stuck in my mind when I read it or it took place in a comic I haven't read (which is theoretically possible, though very unlikely with Cap). Rob, Dave, anyone else...we need to pool our thoughts on this. I dont have the time to go through 400 issues of Cap and 400 issues of Avengers, so...any ideas? I tried the obvious Spider-Man and Spidey villain appearances (ToS #58, Cap #123, #137-138, etc.) and didn't come up with much, though I might have overlooked something. I thought maybe it was in an issue where Cap holds a press conference of something, but JJJ wasn't in Avengers #16 and I don't recall him being at Avengers Appreciation Day in Avengers #45. If you have any thoughts, post them. The Madbombs will destroy us otherwise. -Roscoe Host = wor-ma1-22.ix.netcom.com (205.184.168.54) |

> I had not been exposed to Liefield until he took over Cap and I had heard good and bad about him. You think Colan's Cap has worse art than Liefeld's Cap? I've not read Liefeld, but I can praise Colan. The Colan era is one of my favorites in Cap's history, an underrated period touching on topical matters like campus protests for which Gene's cinematic style was uniquely suited. It was also the era in which The Falcon was introduced; not many eras, before or since, contributed such an important addition to the Cap legend. The quality of Colan's Cap art often depended on the inker. I seem to recall that the Dick Ayers-inked issues had the worst art and the Joe Sinnott-inked issues were the best. Such noted artists as Wally Wood, Bill Everett, and Tom Palmer inked Gene's Cap pencils. Check out that issue where Cap fought the Scorpion (#122 I think?). Stan Lee thought so highly of the art in that issue, he reprinted it in his "Sentinel of Liberty" volume in the late 1970s, showcasing Cap's greatest tales. I admit to not caring much for the two issues of Cap that Gene drew in the early 1980s, however. I've often wondered how an artist with an approach similar to Gene's, such as Jerry Ordway, would fare on Cap. Personally I think that approach is just the sort needed today. Rob

> > > > Kind of like, Frank Miller taking over Daredevil, that had dwindled down to a bi-monthly publication, and totally revamped the character, most of the supporting cast, and the entire feel of the comic from a campy hero to a dark personna of the night. I agree that Marvel gave Miller a lot of freedom to change DD. I suppose if Miller had been like today's creators, he would have insisted on starting over from #1 and wiping the previous fifteen years (or so) of DD's history. But I think Miller kept going in the non-campy direction that McKenzie had been going with the title. If memory serves, McKenzie brought in Ben Urich (when he discovered DD's identity in that issue where DD fought the Hulk) and both Jim Shooter and McKenzie used Bullseye (#146 for Shooter, #159-160? for McKenzie). Thanks for reminding me about Shooter, I'd forgotten that he had gotten that more realistic DD style going following Marv Wolfman's more typically superheroic DD. You had made it sound like Miller had radically changed the entire direction of the book (from campy to realism), while I contend that DD was going in that direction before Miller. I wasn't trying to minimize Miller's major contribution to 1980s comics or his enormous effect on DD in particular, but point out the oft-forgotten efforts of guys like McKenzie and Kane (and Shooter, whom I'd forgotten myself) who had been heading in that direction. »Before Medinnus gets on here and says this has nothing to do with Cap. I urge you to read Miller's Captain America in Marvel Fanfare? I want to say issue #18. It is a real patriotic tear jerker perfect for corn balls like me and very appropriate for the 4th of July.

> Question for Rob. The Cap artists around this time were Well, clearly I rank Colan higher than Rob Liefeld, unlike you. Hey, if you consider Liefeld's Cap better than Colan's Cap, that's your business! As for the five artists, I enjoyed all of them, and don't choose to nitpick about which I like more than another. Besides, when Gene was doing the comic, Kirby was leaving Marvel anyway & Steranko was doing fewer & fewer comics, so it wouldn't be a case of Steranko or Kirby being prevented from drawing Cap because Colan was taking over or something. Colan was the right man at the right time. If you are implying that Colan was the worst of the lot, I'd have to disagree. As much as I loved Romita's Cap work, I thought Colan's Spidey Vs. Falcon issue artwork was fascinating and realistic. Sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy those issues. Rob

I read every damn issue from #112-148 and then some, really #112-160 with the exceptions of #113, #121, #123 and #124.

> Back in Onslaught: Marvel Universe, the following points are to be made. -knowing he would have to sacrifice himself for the people of the world First, Cap never says die. I don't think he "knew" he was going to die there, so why would he give up his shield? Secondly, Cap and Wolverine were never exactly great pals. They had one adventure during the 1940's (X-Men #268) and then didn't really meet again until Secret Wars, where Wolverine acts like a jerk and the two almost get in a fight. Then they fight in Annual #8; they fight in X-Men vs. the Avengers; they fight in Cap-Wolf (Cap #402-408). If Cap was going to give his shield to anyone who survived...well, I can't think of anyone he'd give it to. Cap almost never lets anyone use his shield, much less have it. The only people I can think of who he'd give his shield to are Thor, Hawkeye and Nick Fury (maybe the original Bucky, but he is dead). -Roscoe Host = wor-ma2-18.ix.netcom.com (205.184.168.82) |

Cap #111 (Steranko) > Honorable mention: all the great stuff done by Frank Miller, John Byrne, Gil Kane, John Romita, etc. > Rob I still havent gone through my whole collection to pick out al the covers I really like and put them in some order, but let me quickly run down, from memory, the covers that stand out for me. #58 Those are just off the top of my head. I'll have to say that the Steranko covers are called classic covers for a reason, with #113 probably being my all time favorite Cap cover. I'll eventually get my act together and put this in a coherant form, with comments on each cover. -Roscoe Host = wor-ma2-18.ix.netcom.com (205.184.168.82) |

He was wearing the eyepatch. Didn't look too bad, but then, a photo can't act. Neither can Hasslehoff. > -Roscoe I thought the picture looked good as well. However I'm not going to prejudge the movie until I see it. Hasselhoff is not one of the greats but he isn't a terrible actor. I think you might be judging him on his projects instead of his ability (anyone would look rediculous on Baywatch Nights). Patriot. Host = blackhole.miti.nb.ca (198.73.125.2) |
