They are sidekicks no more.
Just dont tell that to Captain America.
Yes, Captain America is back!
Even in the world of Marvel, Black heroes are treated differently.
In fact, to the people they help, the Flag Smashers are probably more heroic than Captain America.
Lemar Hoskins isnt new, either.
As hes played here, Hoskins has long been John Walkers sidekick.
When Walker was the Super-Patriot, Hoskins was a Bold Urban Commando, or BUC.
Yep, Hoskins essentially became the new Captain Americas Bucky, later changing his name to Battlestar.
He underwent treatment by the Power Broker and gained superhuman abilities.
Time for an action scene!
And its a pretty darn good one.
The action is interrupted by the interlopers, who drop in to help.
And then they put him in jail for 30 years.
The concern as a viewer is, what now?
Is Isaiah merely a talking point more than a character?
(Remember Sams sister Sarah?
And a scene that follows in which Sam is racially profiled by the police feels a bit simplistic.
The two alpha dudes snipe at each other and even have a staring contest.
And Bucky reveals that theres only one man who can really help here: Helmut Zemo.
Custers Grove was the hometown of U.S.
In one arc, Hauser worked with U.S.
Agent (Walker) to try and force Sam Wilsons Cap to give up his shield.
Is this a hint that Walkers Captain America on the show is workingwiththe Flag Smashers?
This is the big one that feels more like foreshadowing than mere Easter egg.
Did you notice the kid at Isaiahs house?
We have definitely not seen the last of him.
In the final scenes, Zemo is revealed to be held in cell number 2187.
Numbers arerarelyrandom in Marvel Disney+ shows, but this one feels like a fun crossover.
Is it a coincidence that Princess Leia was held in cell 2187 inStar Wars: A New Hope?
And it could even be read as a clue to next weeks action, right?
After all, Leia was broken out of that cell.
Maybe Zemo will be, too?
