Cap_Ironman Weekly News, Week Ending 12 August 2012
Welcome to the
cap_ironman/
cap_ironman newsletter! In movie news, Joss Whedon will direct the Avengers sequel and is working on a Marvel-based TV show. He'll also be contributing creatively to all of Marvel's upcoming films. Elsewhere, Marvel studios may try to negotiate with Fox studios for use of Galactus and Silver Surfer, in return for extending Fox's ownership of Daredevil. Or maybe not. Trading comics characters like baseball players… good idea? Terrible idea? Any trades you'd love to see?
Sixteen year-old Jillian Kirby, granddaughter of Marvel legend Jack Kirby (co-creator of Cap and Iron Man and many, many more) is running Kirby4Heroes in conjunction with the Hero Initiative, which helps comic book creators in times of financial or medical distress.

It's interesting that a lot of the newer Marvel books seem to be going back to a lighter feel. Like Daredevil, Captain Marvel, Waid's new Hulk book, now this Cap book. Maybe they're finally getting tired of GrimDark.

I'm enjoying the lighter books, so I hope they're done with GrimDark!

That thing with Steve's parents being communists sounds very interesting. I can see how that idea would work very well. At least socialist working class, politically aware… yeah. Got me thinking there :-)

Here's the article about Steve's parents and communism.

I like the idea of Steve having communist parents (or, as you say, socialist) because it would be specific and surprising (to some readers) but at the same time pretty much as likely as a lot of other political leanings his parents could have had. There's this pervasive idea that the past was all small government and conservative mores, and while I'm not saying the opposite was true, I do think it would be nice to see something else for Cap.
TL:DR - A liberal would like to see a liberal Cap. Shocking!
