  • All-Amercan Girl: Marvel Comics’ First Super-Heroine!

    Unencumbered by a drippy love interest, the Golden Age Miss America took charge and kicked arse on her own initiative—often with lethal results for her foes. Okay, she didn’t actually set out to kill any of them—but if they were collateral damage in battle, she didn’t weep!

  • Captain America: Civil War

    Captain America: Civil War could have been a mess, but in the event, though there are flaws, it’s a well-made and entertaining piece.

  • Marvel announces movies for the rest of this decade

    There’s going to be a Carol Danvers movie. Does anything else matter?

  • That time I had a bit of a meltdown with Comics Fandom on Twitter

    Nevs Coleman goes off on one. Well, several, in fact… A collection of his tweets reacting to Female Thor, Sam Wilson as Captain America and $5 Marvel comics.

  • Captain America Winter Soldier review Black Widow poster

    Captain America: The Winter Soldier

    In the four-way battle for being the “star” of this movie, Chris Evans isn’t even in the arena…

  • Flying the flag: the super-patriots of the early 1940s

    Tony Keen meanders his way through those who preceded and followed Captain America.

  • AHOY, CAP’N MOOBS!

    Rob Liefeld strikes an unexpected blow for sexual equality with his “reimagining” of Captain America.

  • The Avengers

    If flawed, this film’s as good as anyone could realistically expect. It’s told by people who understand the team’s nature and appeal, and can bottle that and serve it to audiences new and fannish alike. It’s been a five-film wait. And it’s pretty much been worth it.

  • Captain America: The First Avenger

    Captain America: The First Avenger

    I’ve spent a good few years being quite cynical about Marvel’s ambitious plans for their superhero franchise in the cinema. Even if they did get made, they wouldn’t be any good. What is very pleasing about Captain America: The First Avenger is that none of these fears are realised.

  • Captain America by Jack Kirby

    Captain America: Sentinel of Liberalism?

    In the window of the old location of Gosh Comics there was a cartoon that depicted a bloated Captain America serving the needs of US agribusiness. I think this idea of Captain America is completely wrong.
