    Love love love to hear from another Captain America fan who really understands just how powerful the character is beyond just the name America. He’s my favorite character and I love telling people why I love this superhero so much.

      I say the same about you as well. Captain America is more than a symbol of the US. He is a symbol of freedom and Justice everywhere. That’s why people identified with him regardless of race, nationality, religion, political views or gender. He personifies Liberty, hope and the pursuit of happiness. Thanks for watching!

    Notice how Cap and Captain Marvel(Shazam) have a very similar origin story. They were chosen because of who they were on the inside. Very relatable.

    • @jpsarri
      @jpsarri  5 місяців тому +1

      Possible. Although it is more of a common trope among similar superheroes during the golden age. Superman (1938), Captain Marvel (1939), Captain America (1940) share a lot of similarities. Others superheroes did as well but they weren’t as popular or did not survived the test of time.

    • @jpsarri
      @jpsarri  Рік тому +1

      To be fair, this list is about the greatest or most influential Cap stories/runs of all time. Also, I prefer to give credit to the writers over the artists because even though they are the main creators, artists seem to have more credit among comic book fans unfortunately. With that being said, I love Mike Zeck’s work. On Captain America he worked with a few writers (DeMatteis primarily) and had some really good stories. However, I prefer the ones listed here for various reasons. Thanks for watching!

    My TOP 10 stories:
    10. CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR (The Film) Loved it. No interest in the comic series as it led to "One More Day" in Spidey comics! Also, Brubaker brought Bucky Barnes back from the dead, so.....no. (I'm more interested in his DAREDEVIL tenure)
    09. "Captain America v. Captain America" 153-156 Cap battles his 1950s replacement! 1st Englehart storyline
    08. AVENGERS #117- Cap v. Sub-Mariner in the Avengers/Defenders War; Cap got a temporary power boost thanks to a poison that reacted wildly with the Super Soldier Serum so Steve survived and thrived during the battle!
    07. TALES OF SUSPENSE #72-74 "The Sleeper Shall Awake" Cap must save the world from The Red Skull's Doomsday robots!
    06. WHAT IF? #4 "What If The Invaders Stayed Together After WW2?" A story that wasn't A "What if?" story but explained how The Invaders became The All Winners Squad! It was so good it became Canon. Oh, "Captain America" is not Steve Rogers but he was no less valiant!
    05. CAPTAIN AMERICA 251-252 Cap and Batroc The Leaper v. Mr.Hyde
    04. (TIE) CAPTAIN AMERICA 193-200 "Madbomb"/"CAPTAIN AMERICA`s BICENTENNIAL BATTLES" Treasury special- Wealthy conspirators plan to use the ultimate weapon to take over the country and end Democracy! One of the scariest comic stories I've ever read! The other is a follow up and celebration of the American Spirit from Jack Kirby!
    03. CAPTAIN AMERICA 169-176- "The Secret Empire" This switches places with "Madbomb" depending on my mood! They're both excellent because they're based on real life dangers if we're not careful!
    02. CAPTAIN AMERICA #296-301- The True origin of and "final" showdown with The Red Skull! Besides Kirby, my 2nd favorite writer on Cap's series remains J.M.DeMATTEIS!
    01.CAPTAIN AMERICA #206-212- "The River Of Death" aka The Secret Of File 116! Through a series of events Cap stumbles upon a would be "Frankenstein" who is producing the monsters in SHIELD's File 116-- on the orders of....whom? A story I've read repeatedly over the years!

    I'm really sorry, but while I love Jack Kirby's art, his stretch as the WRITER and artist in the '70's doesn't belong on this list. The dialogue was cringe-worthy and was the only black mark on his Marvel legacy. While Kirby is applauded for his creativity, this run pointed out how much he needed Stan Lee!

    • @matthewschwartz6607
      @matthewschwartz6607 Рік тому +2

      I agree. Zola is awesome, but Kirby’s dialogue is painful to take (I won’t read his New Gods work for the same reason, even though I like Darkseid .).

    • @jpsarri
      @jpsarri  10 місяців тому

      No worries. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I personally love this particular run, not because of its literary value but because of its historical significance. It happened during an important time in American history and it was at crossroads for American comics. In my opinion, some of the best art from Kirby happened at this time. Of course, it was very abstract in comparison to other artists of that time period, but it was uniquely Kirby. The stories are forgettable but the marriage of old and new is where it is at. For that reason alone, it deserves to be included. After all, it is the least we can do for the co-creator of Cap.

      Nice!! Unfortunately, it works that way. Comics were not as well regarded back in the day. The consideration was that they were for the most part disposable. Now, we have a collectors market. It is a blessing and a curse. On one side it brings appreciation to the medium. On the other, it gives room to unscrupulous speculators who care little about the art and are here just to make a quick buck. They are the ones killing the hobby.

At this time 1965/66 I had about 200 Marvel comics all near mint. I had them taken off me for a spot of childhood larceny ie payback. Would be worth millions now with the Spiderman comic. Still such is life. Take care. 😊

      The birth of Captain America has been retold multiple times by different writers and artists over the years. Each iteration has given a new take to the origin story. However, and into your point, the MCU has taken a lot of inspiration from the Ultimates universe. You can check there.

    Hot take but I don't love Brubaker's run on Cap. Its lacking a lot of the elements that Cap was known for before his run, turning a character that goes on grandiose sci-fi adventures and fights Nazis to more of a spy book than anything else? Idk just doesn't really match the vibe to me. Even Gruenwald's sometimes more grounded approach doesn't have the feel of Brubaker, and I think it just doesn't appropriately honor the legacy of the character imo.
