![]() We will get to see the Falcon in his new role when Captain America #25 hits the shelves this October. It’s good to see that Marvel is diversifying its cast of comic book characters, and giving them their own solo series. ![]() But I guess Marvel still wants to keep the Young Avengers away from the main Avengers team. Patriot from the Young Avengers looked like another candidate for the role, and it would’ve been good to see him again. Wilson won’t be the first black character to hold the shield – Isaiah Bradley took on the title of “Black Captain America” even before Steve Rogers became The Famous Steve Rogers. Thor is also shown wielding an axe after his hammer gets passed on to the new female Thor. The character holding the shield does look similar to Wilson, and an aged Steve Rogers can be seen standing next to him. Tom also went on to say that villains might think that the new Captain America isn’t much of a threat to their plans, and Wilson will have to teach them a lesson.įans have been expecting this change after the release of Avengers #35 cover. Wilson doesn’t have superhuman strength but having the ability to fly is a pretty big advantage. The Falcon is known for his aerial fighting style, and that aspect of him remains attached even though he now bears the shield. According to Tom Brevoort, the series editor, Wilson has a different outlook because he didn’t grow up in the 1930’s like Steve, and has an understanding of the problems faced by people in the 21 st Century. Seeing Wilson as the new Captain America does sound interesting because his personality is different from Rodgers. He has a strong relationship with Steve Rogers, and that’s why I find it befitting that he take up the shield after him. ![]() Sasha A delightful endearment for a pet falcon that exudes a dash of spunk in her attitude. Helene This is a dazzling title that bears a Greek origin and translates into shining light. He’s also credited as the first African-American superhero in the mainstream comic books. Prima Donna A cool name that belongs to a falcon that loves catching all the attention to itself. Now that Steve Rogers doesn’t have his super-human strength or youth, the shield will be passed down to the Falcon, Samuel Wilson, who made his debut in 1969. It’s not as if the Falcon swooped in and took the name Steve Rogers.Ĭaptain America made his debut back in March 1941 and since then has become an iconic character in the Marvel Universe. To me, the name Captain America is a title, and anyone who is worthy enough can take it. This new development sounds better than the new female Thor, which Marvel announced earlier this week. The Falcon will be taking over the title of Captain America. Marvel continues to change things up in the comic book universe with another big announcement.
