Steve's Profile

Captain America #22 seems to finally start walking, after 22 extremely dragged magazines. And with that, he finally highlighted Sharon Carter, a character who has always been with Steve Rogers, and was unable to act until then. Coates keeps the villain Selene and his plan standing, as well as the essence of Steve Rogers, Captain America, is alive, which is good. What the magazine must do now is to stop playing with Sharon's life and make her stand out even more, as it she always deserved. The magazine also needs to stop inciting female rivalry. "Sharon or Peggy?" how about both? they have fans who appreciate their participation. And Steve and Sharon are already a established couple in the comics. I hope that Coates will put his hand on his conscience and stop giving signs that he is going to discard some character. He also needs to be more creative and stop using prominent MCU characters. Not that he wasn't, but this is ridiculous. It brought Peggy's tension to be alive, and what that might mean, rather than working on Steve and Sharon's relationship, a thing he should have made instead, making it even more interesting. After all, Peggy is past. and Steve proves to have overcome it. Finally, the Skull surprise was well built, but he will need to innovate. The Skull went and came back from the death thousands of times. We were doing well with Alexa, Selene, the false accusations and the Extremists. As long as he continues with the originality he brought at the beginning of this run, giving space to Sharon, (and speeding up the plot a little), everything will be fine, and the magazine will improve. The art is very good, but it would be nice for an artist to pay more attention to the details of the faces and stop drawing Sharon like a raisin. She is old, but he is exaggerated. The other characters could be more detailed as well, but they are at a very acceptable level. Looking forward to the next magazine.

Finally Sharon Carter gains space she deserves in the Captain's America comics! an action-packed magazine from start to finish, with extremely beautiful and exciting dialogues to see, about the story of the most important female character in the Captain's stories. The magazine is messing with many men who are unable to see a woman claiming victory, but you can be sure, these people need to understand that everyone has their chance to shine. It's an inspiring magazine for anyone!

A very well-written and designed magazine that continues to address more of Sharon Carter's potential as she always deserved, and her great relationship with Steve Rogers, witch needs to continue with that beautiful approach, drawing an incredible parallel of the couple of heroes they are, against the couple of villains Alexander and Alexa are, showing that the Lukin couple still maintain their thirst for power. In previous editions, Coates' story seemed to go down more and more, but in a few after, he started to leverage the narrative, bringing more of the relationship between Steve and Sharon, as well as the action and development of the story, turning all again in to a good way. Captain America #24 gives us hope for more dynamic magazines and a lot of action and story ahead, as well as a better approach for the supporting characters that are part of this universe that is Captain America.

Captain America #25 is another magazine where we see Sharon Carter narrating and starring. And that is tremendously good. Anyone who doesn't understand what Coates is doing is probably thinking that this is the worst Captain America magazine. But all the men who innovated something were severely criticized. Coates is not writing an action comic. He's writing a novel, a real book with drawings. And he is also giving protagonists a lead role, something that, if it didn't happen in a Captain's magazine, would probably not sell well as solo. Not if these characters didn't get married from where to start. And yet, this is still about Captain America. And what is Captain America about? About all of us. For those who did not understand the magazine, we are dealing with a Captain America who does not know what to do in the face of the destruction of his image. Before, it was enough for the world if Captain America just solve a crime, express yourself with the people... but how people need more. And that's why Captain America needs the help of the love of his life, Sharon, his friends, the Daughters of Liberty, and all the support he can, because Dream cannot die. Whoever understood this, is in love. And that's why Captain America #25 deserves a great score. For the opportunity you give to the Captain and everyone else. For the dynamics it brought to the magazines again after the very narrative narrative. For showing that sometimes, even Captain America needs help, like any other human being. Nor did art get in the way of this day. And about Cho's work... what can I say? for those who were looking for the return of Captain America's protagonism it was a full plate. Not just a full plate, it was the best and most necessary story we had in the decade. Captain America speaks at the funeral of a friend (unknown to us until then), an immigrant he met in a cafe a long time ago. This man was like Steve, a person who was trying to find his place in a new country that was not known to him (in the case of Steve, after the freeze.) And in this parallel, we could see what the Captain fights for, with all the words. The Captain reinforces that he doesn't fight for a country, a president or a flag, but for the Dream. He mentions that the founding fathers of the country (USA) were imperfect people in an imperfect time, but that their ideas are worth fighting for. He makes it clear that he fights for those who have never stopped fighting for the Dream to honor them. He fights for freedom of speech, religion, thought, and a better world for everyone. Thus, we were able to see the Captain express everything he had to say to a divided America, showing that he is there to defend everyone. And recalling the conversation that Bucky had with the Patriot (Elijah Bradley): "Captain America doesn't need to be aligned with the United States. It's the United States that needs to be aligned with Captain America." Because Captain America isn't about Steve Rogers. It's about all those who fight and those who cannot fight, but it has a Dream. A dream of a better life and opportunities for everyone.

Another great Coates comic, we saw that his writing took off in a while, and now he finds himself on an increasingly accurate path in the character's script. We had a lot of action, speech about cycles of death and rebirth (something Marvel has a lot of) and all this done with great art. We also see Steve Rogers talking about the importance of his friendships, the thing he is most proud of, showing us how important Sharon, Bucky and Sam are to him. This was a great comic, one that fans were delighted to read today.
