He was working for her! She let that dangerous shit play out, which was very much against her interests! What! No. She took Sam, Bucky, and Zemo to see super soldier serum scientist Dr. No, it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. Yes, Sharon Carter is the Power Broker.Between introducing two members of the Young Avengers in WandaVision with Billy and Tommy, and the impending arrival of Kate Bishop on Hawkeyelater this year, young Elijah is due to get himself some red, white, and blue duds of his own. Hopefully this isn’t the last we see of Isaiah, but you can bet we’re going to get more of Elijah down the road.There it was Steve who made sure that Isaiah’s deeds were finally known to the world. Sam returning to properly make sure Isaiah Bradley gets his due once again mirrors the excellent Truth: Red, White, and Black story by Robert Morales and Kyle Baker.Why are Val, Walker and his wife back in the courthouse where Walker got court martialed to try on his new US Agent costume? Feels like pandemic-related restrictions forced the show to film all those scenes at the same time, doesn’t it?.We wrote more about the Marvel Comics history of U.S. Speaking of which, Walker’s new costume is basically identical to his Marvel Comics US Agent costume and it looks really great here. US Agent, of course, was the codename Walker took on after he stopped being Captain America in the comics. Val says that people will need a “US Agent” soon, and not a Captain America, as things are about to get “weird”.John Walker manages to control the effects that the super soldier serum is having on his psyche when he gets a second chance to prove himself, dropping his damaged makeshift shield and realizing he needs to prioritize human lives over vengeance.Bucky gives Steve’s notebook to his therapist as a thank you gift.Both Sam and Bucky reflect elements of what made Steve an exceptional Captain America in the finale, and prove to be a terrific team. We also see Bucky straining to open the back of the van with his vibranium arm, but he doesn’t flex as hard as Steve did when he stopped Bucky taking off in a helicopter in that same movie.As a voice barked “stand down” from a SHIELD quinjet, Steve hit a barrier on his bike and was thrown forward into the action. Bucky’s leap from a barrier-crashing motorcycle in episode 6 is a nice callback to Steve’s very similar move in Captain America: The Winter Soldier.It’s a nice illustration of two different interpretations about how best to utilize America’s power. Compare that to how Walker wields his shield, as a slashing/bludgeoning weapon for offense. Similarly, Sam primarily uses the shield and the wings for defense.Just witness how much better Sam’s wings hold up under pressure than Walker’s homemade shield. There’s something to be said here about how America is stronger when it works with and accepts help from its allies, as opposed to going it alone. It’s safe to assume that Sam’s new wings are vibranium, or at least vibranium laced, just like his shield, considering that it was made for him by the tech geniuses in Black Panther‘s Wakanda.The additional stars and stripes motif added to the underside of the wings here seems to be an MCU flourish, but that’s just one little way they managed to improve on perfection.
FALCON AND WINTER SOLDIER EPISODES MOVIE
Even then, it felt like a perfectly movie-ready design, but to see it translated to beautifully to live action is a real treat, and this is an immediate contender for “best superhero movie or TV suit” right now.
That costume was designed by Carlos Pacheco, and first hit the pages of Marvel Comics in October of 2014, in All-New Captain America #1.
FALCON AND WINTER SOLDIER EPISODES SERIES
Hopefully it isn’t a series finale, and we’ll see it continue in season 2 as Captain America and the Winter Soldier, but that’s an argument for another time.įor now, we’re here (as usual) to dig in to all the Marvel Comics and MCU references the show gave us this episode.
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier episode 6 was an action-packed, but rather messy season finale for the show. This article contains The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Episode 6 spoilers and potential spoilers for the wider MCU.
