Fans needn’t look further than OG Captain America (portrayed by Chris Evans) himself in 2012’s The Avengers for a good example of that common MCU misstep. While I am not the resident Captain America expert on staff here, I definitely am digging the new costume worn by Chris Evans in the posters and trailer for CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER. Even star Chris Evans has gone on record to say it’s one of his favorite suits. When John Walker carried the shield for a time on this show, he represented one interpretation of America, but far from the only one. The two of them are just barely able to take him down, with Sam leaving his ruined wings behind with Torres but bringing the shield with him back to America. This isn’t to say Sam’s debut Captain America suit is dumb. The new Captain America suit revealed in the final The Falcon and the Winter Soldier episode is impractical for stealth, Sam’s ears are going to get wrecked and that eyepiece would trend well in the Winter X Games.

Isaiah seems to have been the only one to get the full Steve Rogers effect from it – just minus the blonde hair, blue eyes, and white skin that would have made him an acceptable replacement for the original.

The Falcon was the first African-American superhero (The Black Panther precedes him but is not American) and, while Cap’s shield has been passed around more times than appetizers at a wedding, Sam’s 2014 comic debut as New Cap was a deep moment of ownership. The costume, the shield, and the American flag itself symbolize different things to different people. The Captain America Uniform has been worn by many people who wore it to honor the original Captain America. 1, female winter soldier cosplay “You Brought Two Too Many,” a mysterious stranger wearing a Captain America costume breaks into Steve Rogers’ home. There’s nothing wrong with the costume. But as illustration accurate as the costume is, there’s still something that feels just a little off, as is common with the evolution of costuming in the MCU. John Walker has snapped, and both Sam and Bucky want no part of him holding onto the weapon that belonged to, and still represents, Steve Rogers. He’s lying low because more powerful figures in the military want to deal with both Karli and Walker, and he takes the opportunity to help Sarah get their parents’ boat fixed by calling in favors from the many people in the community who’ve been helped by the Wilsons over the years.
