So yesterday’s pretty obvious news tease was indeed correct, and we have an All New Captain America: Sam Wilson AKA The Falcon. In reading this news story across countless outlets this morning, comment sections are flooded with posts like “big deal, they’re only going to change him back anyway” or “he’ll be back, just like…
Marvel recently held their creators retreat where all of the writers and artists pitch new ideas and dream up the stories that will fill the pages of our favorite books for the forseeable future.
