Captain America Writer Nick Spencer Gets Death Threats On Social Media

So who got death threats yesterday? Oh that's right, Nick Spencer, for writing a Captain America comic book that they didn't like (though with art from Jesus Saiz, how could they not??)

It's at this point that I'd like to reiterate that Captain America is a fictional character. Marvel Comics is invested in Captain America. Wherever the story will end up, Steve Rogers will probably not actually be a Nazi. And no matter how much you don't like his story (especially if you didn't actually read the thing) sending him a death threat on social media is even less like Captain America isn't it?

Though as David Harper says,

Look for the rationale in a month…
