25 by writer Rick Remender and artist Stuart Immonen, an aged Steve. Still, I guess the blue in the flag isn't sky blue, bright and cheery. A social worker turned hero, Sam Wilson's bleak outlook on life was wiped away the day he met Captain America. In the comics, the mantle of Captain America passed from Steve Rogers to Sam Wilson in 2014. That said, the darkening around the edges might work as a modernization of the look but it does seem - much like people have said about the Superman costume in Man of Steel - to miss the symbolism of Captain America somewhat. ![]() Given where it is on his body, and the idea that Wilson has both a shield and wings, it seems unlikely this will be much of a distraction, though it isn't as though anybody will spend a lot of time looking at that part of the costume when he's in action. With the one true Captain America back in the saddle, Sam decided to hang up Cap’s shield and return to his role as Falcon. It has those unnecessary seams like the New 52 Batman design, but in addition to that they put in white "ribs" that run from the seam in the front to one on the back, with a blue (or is it black?) area over top of them leading to Sam's armpit. Sam Wilson has lots of thoughts, as he explains in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, in which he gets his Captain America costume from the comics and delivers a speech that will have major. Either way, the top of the costume is slightly too busy for my liking. It could very well be that this is an effect of the inking or coloring and not actually something that will play into the costume design (it doesn't seem to show up on the Immonen image). ![]() In the full-cast poster above, it appears as though Sam's costume features black stripes on the sides (a la the "Last Son of Krypton" look from The Reign of the Supermen), but it doesn't look like it in the larger image of Cap only. Sam Wilson combats violence and inequality in Harlem not only as a prestigious social worker but also as the soaring superhero known as Falcon or Captain. Since it's black-and-white, though, one thing that I've wondered remains unanswered: Will they alter his wings to be alternating red and white in keeping with the Captain America color scheme, rather than the solid colors that his wings typically have been depicted as having? It doesn't look like it, but a black and white picture could go either way and the move would make design sense. ![]() You can see the image above, courtesy Pacheco's Facebook page.
