Well the phrase "useful idiots" was first used post-Second World War for left-wingers being used by foreign Communist regimes, and is the kind of thing William Burnside might have said at the time.īut it would be equally fitting coming from the others. And kept in suspended animation, like so many Captain Americas have at one point or another. In Uncanny Avengers #1, we see this mysterious figure recruited by Doctor Statis and MODOK, and has no difficulty working for them. So who is it to be, who takes on the name, the costume and blows up one entire plank of the US Government? ![]() Eventually, he undergoes therapy and gained a new identity. He was kept alive by Faustus and the Red Skull and used a puppet again, joins the terrorist group Watchdogs, becomes an insane crimefighting vigilante (aren't they all?). An intense student of American history, he was manipulated before killing himself in flames. He was later renamed The Grand Director as a villain and leader of a group of white supremacists (how woke of Jim Shooter). The Captain America of the 1950s, Commie Smasher, created as an explanation for the reappearance of Captain America in the fifties, when the sixties would have him frozen since the war. He was last seen working for Madame Hydra. A Captain America and Daredevil villain, it is later revealed in New X-Men that Nuke was involved in the Weapon Plus program, the supersoldier program that had also created Captain America and Wolverine, and went up against Cyclops then.

Because a) we never saw the final melting and b) Selene is an incredibly suspicious figure who manipulated events to get herself onto the Quiet Council, and her actions damaged Krakoa in the eyes of the public, on behalf of Orchis. So maybe that would be too soon to be rehabilitated?īut John Walker is someone who has earned his rank as US Agent. He's also a right-wing conservative religious figure, and the references to soldiers and God are noted.ĭestiny predicted the "false Captain"… the false Captain America and the false Captain Krakoa? The thing is, John Walker is to launch the new Thunderbolts team in December, with Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, Bucky Barnes, Black Widow, Sharon Carter, White Widow, Red Guardian, U.S.Agent and Shang-Chi. ![]() John Walker knows all about putting on another man's costume and taking his identity, as Captain America and then The Captain, before becoming the US Agent again. There are a few good theories about the person who took Cyclops' alter ego character and stole the Captain Krakoa uniform before launching a false-flag operation against the US government back on Free Comic Book Day and now caught up courtesy of the Hellfire Gala. ![]() ![]() The identity of the new Captain Krakoa – or Captain Orchis – remains a mystery after Uncanny Avengers #1.
