2. "Stupid people piss him off"

"The Cap doesn't hate America, what he hates is MURKA..."

I love Captain America.
I started reading The Cap off and on two/three years ago, when Michael Medved went on a rage about him. I thought anything that pisses Medved off must be good for me to read.

3. Medved went off on Cap?

What did he say? that must have been awesome.

Captain America, Traitor?
The comic-book hero goes anti-American.

By Michael Medved



As if Defense Department officials didn’t face enough challenges in and around Iraq, they must now prepare for battle without a celebrated component of past victories. Captain America, the patriotic superhero whose comic-book exploits inspired the nation in World War II, now feels uncertain about the nation’s cause; in his latest adventures, The Sentinel of Liberty seems disillusioned, embittered, and surprisingly sympathetic to terrorists...

Medved is so full of crap!

Anyway, there was a link to this review
via the DU back in '03. At that time I wasn't a big fan of comics. However, anything that gets the right winged knickers in a twist is always worth checking out. I was glad I did!! Now I try to read as much as possible.
