You would think that being in the middle of production on Disney+'s The Falcon and the Winter Soldier would keep Sebastian Stan (Bucky Barnes aka Winter Soldier) and Anthony Mackie (Sam Wilson aka Falcon) on set and in action 24/7 – especially if the series wants to hit it's Fall 2020 debut window It's understandable:[...]
While the Star Wars live-action series The Mandalorian is scoring big with its storytelling, visuals, and Baby Yoda, late 2020 brings one of the "biggest hitters" on the Marvel side in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, the first in a series of original projects set for a 2020/2021 rollout (more on that below).

Now, as I read the current issue wherein Sam Wilson uses a flamethrower in his suit to barbecue vampires, I begin to realize the series may have lost the script somewhere down the line.

Plus, he has the Champions. I'd expect Sam Wilson to return to Captain America soon to rejoin Steve Rogers, possibly after Ta-Nehisi Coates takes over the book Misty Knight has always had a hard time staying in a title regularly despite being absolutely amazing The new Patriot and the other Falcon, Joaquin Torres, aren't guaranteed spots on Champions, but they seem to[...]

The Falcon, Patriot, Joaquin, Doctor Voodoo, and Daimon Hellstrom take the fight back to Blackheart and his acolyte, Dray. This is the final battle for the fate of Chicago. Is it a good read?
The Patriot must look after Chicago in his absence, and Doctor Voodoo reaches out to a mystical contact in the hopes of rescuing Sam Wilson.
The Falcon himself is trapped in the underworld due to Blackheart's machinations and runs into the last Avenger you'd ever expect to pop up in a Falcon comic: The Two-Gun Kid.

While it does have its kickass moments of Sam Wilson flying in to stop criminals, it also shows him trying peaceful means to stop potential criminals and end a gang war before it starts It strives to show that all criminals are not the same and that sometimes people need intervention beyond a punch in[...]
Rodney Barnes continues to show that he knows what makes Sam Wilson great, and the majority of the plot manages to keep me glued.

They are met by Sam Wilson (Captain America), Jane Foster (Thor), and Riri Williams (Ironheart).

That just leaves it to the plans of Sam Wilson (the real Captain America), Ant-Man, and the Winter Soldier to save the day.
Can we just agree to forget the Cosmic Cube exists for a bit after this story? Let's drop the Infinity Gauntlet too for a bit You see, they're good tools for the villain,[...]
Avoid Secret Empire #9. There's some great artwork, and the colors complement it well. However, it doesn’t make the proceedings entertaining in any way.

Firstly, the cover and interior promise of spotlighting my preferred Captain America, Sam Wilson Plus, the turning of the tide in this dreary story might lighten things up There was another thing, which you may already know about, that made it so my fanboyish nature created a necessity to grab this comic book.
So, Sam is[...]

In honor of the 4th of July, the American Day of Independence, I decided I would interview the biggest Captain America fan I know: my dad.
Writer Nick Spencer, before he was fighting off critics of his work on Twitter (which is still not good behavior), was busy pissing off Fox News with his first issue of Sam Wilson: Captain America, which was a comic that put the anti-immigration crowd on blast by making them the Sons of the Serpent (Marvel's[...]
Death is meaningless in comics.

*Ties in with the Secret Empire crossover
Sam Wilson: Captain America is the best Marvel comic written by now-controversial writer, Nick Spencer, with Astonishing Ant-Man coming in at a close second. Sam Wilson has been a phenomenal book that has been more than willing to tackle heavy subjects with grace and tact (for the most part)[...]
