Out of all the villains Steve has ever had, the new Baron Zemo aka Helmut Zemo is probably the meanest and cruelest SOB who is not just content by destroying Captain America but he has to destroy Steve Rogers emotionally as well,
In Avengers vol 1 #277 not only does Zemo break into Avengers mansion and hurt Steve’s friends, but he destroys every single scrapbook, photo, and relic of Steve’s memories.
Including the only photo of Sarah Rogers, Steve’s mother.
There are times when Helmut Zemo is really close to taking the spot for Steve Roger’s worst enemy from the Red Skull. Not to mention Bucky’s worst enemy since he was also the one who exposed Bucky as the Winter Soldier to the world, destroying his image and his career as Captain America.
Also I want Monica back with the Avengers, or at least some new Nextwave stuff.
EDIT: At some point Helmut restores Sarah’s picture and all of the stuff he destroyed during that raid in Thunderbolts #105 and gives them to Steve in an attempt to convince him that Zemo was reformed (he also had earlier jumped in front of Steve to protect him from an attack which messed up his face). Of course Zemo went back to hating Steve.
Is that why he’s not participating in the war of the tinies? Or is it because baby Bucky has no trigger words?
Indeed Baby Bucky and the Buckycaps are not affected by trigger words. Technically the comic book Buckys are unaffected by the tiny Red Book of Doom but they do have trigger phrases that a Not So Tiny Loki could easily obtain.
*facepalms* Painfully obvious none of you read the comics and are making snap judgements based on incomplete info. Also, you couldn’t tell a nazi from a fascist and a hero from a villain if your life depended on it….
Okay. Wow. I can’t believe we’re here. I’m savoring this moment hold on. Let me breathe it in. Let me just lap it up. I have to feel the grace of God come over me so I don’t school yo ass too hard. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
Okay
Yup. First off, you…. commented on a screencap of me reading the comic. That I own. That I can take screencaps of. That is in my library. On Comixology. That I paid for. Since most of my library, y’know this one
pales in comparison to the one I’m used to having since I moved across the country and don’t have access to the accumulative collection of mine, my dad’s, and my sister’s. Y’know. The one that has comics dating back to first printings in the 60s. But whatever.
What do I have on Comixology at this point?
Oh right. 2634, most of which are trade collections. And that’s not counting the hundreds of issues I have in the archive because I’ve already used them on my comic book reference blog @renaramblesaboutcomics. Y’know. Where I’m hosting my comic reviews and live reads I’ve been doing on tumblr since 2011.
But you’re riiiiiight. Maybe I don’t have the reference for Cap. Gosh darnit I’m just such a newb. What the fuck’s wrong with me, commenting on Cap comics I don’t know shit about.
Ohhhhhhhh right. I just own the whole fucking run you’re referring to. Right right. Not to mention I have read the Ultimate comics, the Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale Captain America: White, the Sam Wilson Cap comic before Spencer lost his goddamn mind, and a couple dozen more not to mention the Avengers comics I own, the Spider-Man guest appearances, the X-Men guest appearances, the guest appearances in Captain and Ms. Marvel books, and all those other comics that feature him.
My bad. Looks like you’re full of shit. And I’m an actual Cap Fan. Uh oh.
Looks like you’re in trouble.
But I have to close out with one more thing:
Okay I’ll stay away from the obvious answer which is that you…. apparently know that the National Socialist Movement in 1930s Germany was …. fascist. But that’s okay. (It’s actually not, it just shows you’re fucking ridiculous)
The thing is you’re accusing me of not being able to recognize either. So let me introduce you to someone I’m pretty sure knows Nazis when she sees them.
Hi. I’m Renaroo. I run this blog, also @renaramblesaboutcomics. Along with being a lifetime comic book fan,the daughter of comic book fans, and the granddaughter of comic book fans, I’m something else that you would know if you wandered around my blog any:
I’m German-American. Specifically I’m only the second generation of Americans in my family. My family came over from post-Nazi Germany in 1950. Specifically I have to thank this little woman in the middle:
That’s my grandma. Actually she’s all of our Grandma – We’re now a family of Italian-German-Americans,l Mexican-Americans, Polish-German Americans, and (my sister and I) Appalachian-German-Americans.
My Grandma just turned 78 this year and in her lifetime she lived through, you guessed it, World War II and Nazi Germany. In fact, she lost her father in the war – my great-grandfather.
She was also as a young child mauled and attacked by an SS German police dog, which she has scars on her arms from. They’re next to the scars she got from her time as a welder in a metal shop in Akron, Ohio during the rubber boom, but that’s less relevant.
This 4′9″ woman has taught me many things over the years. She helped raise my sister and me. And some of things she, and my great-grandmother before she died at the age of 98, would talk to us about was living under a fascist dictatorship and how that place was called…
wait for it…
Nazi Germany.
So, yes. I know what Nazis are. I know what fascists are. If I didn’t, I could call up my comic book collecting dad who is also a history professor, and get him to explain it to us, but I’m pretty sure I don’t have to.
Why?
Because before slow roasting you over a fire, I guess I could’ve pointed out this. It’s sometimes hard to find so I don’t really blame you for not having read it yourself. I’m not an asshole comic book fan who lords that sort of thing over people
But here’s Captain America (1941-1950) #1:
[Captain America (1940-1941) #1]
Oh wow look it’’s Red Skull’s first appearance. What’s that he’s wearing on his chest? Why doesn’t he know he leads HYDRA? Not Nazis. That’s so weird I wonder what the two have in common…
P.S. @andarthas-web, in case it’s not obviously apparent from the entirety of this post you enabled by trying smear shit on my original post: You’re a fucking idiot.
Custom Funkos: Little Steve and Sergeant Barnes
I finally finished my first custom pops! I whittled down and repainted Harvey Bullock to create Steve. While Bucky was sculpted over a John Watson base.
