“Captain America” developed comic book veteran Will Meugniot, his wife already and story artist Dave Simons. The series would have been set during World War II, as you can see in one part of the project: a minute promotional video.

The trailer depicts the version of Captain America’s Origin, where Scrawny Steve Rogers becomes a muscular paragon thanks to the super-soldier serum. But is this Steve Rogers? According to most reports, This Captain America’s real name was Tommy Tompkins. “Steve Rogers” was alias whose army gave him a cover. A confusing choice, but sure!
The animation style of the offer is reminiscent of the 1999 cartoon “Spider-Man Unlimited” (whose Saban and Meugnios worked), with shade and proportions to the comic. The trailer features CAP’s side -by -case Bucky and at least some of the howling commands, as well as their enemies from the red skull and Baron Wolfgang von Strucker.
One of the authors of the exhibition would have been Steve Englehart, defining the “Captain America” cartoon writer who was Cap Fight President Richard Nixon in 1974. Malehart is publicly shared He wrote a summary of the “Skullhenge” episode of the red skull, which is trying to organize a stonehenge formation for giant search in England.
The choice sets the “Captain America” in World War II makes sense. Cap created Jack Kirby and Joe Simon in 1940, months before The United States came to war. Kirby and Simon pulled an American flag -driven hero who beats Führer. Captain America has also struggled when it has been removed from the war environment; In these cases, he can sometimes only feel a new superhero. The best modern “Captain America” writers such as the English use Bring discomfort to the contrast to the capp, the idealized biggest generation warrior, with American reality, but I care.
But there is a problem in World War II regulation. According to Englehart, the exhibition should not have been called the bad boys “Nazi”. Apparently it was too charge for a children’s exhibition. This is not a precedent. The “X-men” of the 1990s cleaned Magnetona, who was retired by the Holocaust, instead only as a general refugee. The sequel series “X-Men ’97”, which is directed at the same time, but now in the old audience, had to fix Magneto. Even “Avengers: the most awesome heroes of the country” (who made their debut in 2010) describe allies that fight the hydra and only Hydra during World War II.
There have been rumors over the years that this is what prevented the show from leaving the field but Cartoon historian Brian Cronin denies that. Bothhart and Cron’s both own the “Captain America” withdrawal of the money problems that Marvel was at that time; They had filed for bankruptcy in 1996 and had experienced a hard fall in the previous 90s cartoon boom. The effects of these financial struggles are presented how this era of Marvel cartoons ended suddenly. By 1998, “X-Men” and “Spider-Man” were over and “Silver Surfer” and “Spider-Man Unlimited” ended only after 13 episodes. “Captain America” never received one Period.
Today, Marvel fans can discuss the 90s/early Aights cartoon they would prefer to see more: Meugniot “Captain America” or Mike Mignolan “Thor”.
