What if Steve was a woman? And Japanese?
>>82826455
WHAT IF ALL CHARACTERS WERE ATTRACTIVE WOMEN?
>>82826511
Does Marvel have a waifu universe like DC does on E-11 and Ame-Comi?
>>82826511
You might be onto something
>>82826539
I think they do but I don't remember them.
>>82826455
>And Japanese
She'd be in an internment camp.
>a Japanese woman
>in the American military in WW2
Think again.
>>82826455
Do the people who do these racebends ever think about historical context?
>>82826455
It isn't the most terrible idea someone from /co/ has ever had. Take that as you will.

>>82827343
Couldn't you just reason through that they used her a test subject for whatever purpose and wasn't the intended final result? It's not really as much of a block as you seem to believe unless you think every alternate version has to have exactly the same origin.

>>82826455
>cap fighting in the Pacific theater instead of Europe
I'd like that.
Japanese Hydra when?
>>82827516
That's the thing though. Changing the character's origins makes them a different person. The experiences of a Japanese-American woman would be profoundly different from canon Cap.
At that point might as well make a completely different character.
>>82827589
Hmm what was the hand doing during ww2 i wonder
>>82827447
The 442nd regiment is the supreme irony of the US during World War 2
>>82827447
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/442nd_Infantry_Regiment_(United_States)
Don't see anything about women there.
>Most of the families of mainland Japanese Americans were confined to internment camps in the United States interior.
So if Steve were a Japanese woman, he'd be in an internment camp.
>>82827516
Making cap a woman or a Japanese american could be interesting.
Doing both does seem like a bit of a stretch from a character perspective.
>>82827769
That's the point though. I don't understand what you want from alternate universe stories if you want things to be exactly the same.
>>82827589
>Unit 731 is part of Hydra
I can dig it.
>>82826455
It'd be real fucking lame. Marvel needs to learn how to retire these characters instead of handing out their mantles like hotcakes. You're Captain America! She's Captain America! We're all Captain America!
>>82826455
Why japanese?
>>82827909
Legacy characters are nothing new, anon
>>82827909
The way they've got it now though, they could make a team comprised solely of Captain Americas.
>>82827909
>he doesn't like legacy characters
lmao

>>82827967
I think that's his point. The fact that they've been doing this for a while leads to whole swaths of people who are or have been that title.
>>82828022
So?
>>82827997
These still look like mainly non-combat roles.
>>82828078
I dunno, ask him.
>>82828078
I don't fucking like. That's my point. I don't care that's its been done before. Derp.
>>82827967
>>82828078
Anon, he's saying retire the legacy and do something new.
As in do more new and keep going after.
>>82828088
Yes? In real life people can't take an experimental drug and become superhuman.
You claimed Japanese Americans were all locked up in internment camps. That claim is wrong.
>>82826455
More Cap porn?
>>82828124
I think you just need to read something else if you don't like mantles being passed around, sounds like capeshit just isn't for you.
Might as well complain about costumes next or how the stories don't end.
>>82828369
I'm not that into cape shit actually. I find it odd how someone with the exact same powerset and origin story springs about every few years to replace the old and busted original hero.
>>82826455
>What if Steve was a woman? And Japanese?
What if they were all?

>>82828460
fair enough, you know what you like
I feel like we've had this retarded thread before. Either way she'd be in an internment camp.
>>82826455
Looks like Korra.
>>82828591
>didn't read the thread
>>82828669
You can link all the wiki articles you want, that doesn't change the fact that it's a 99% chance she'd be in an internment game. Furthermore Japanese recruitment into WAC didn't begin till '43, and even if she scored the highest in WAC training, she'd be a switchboard operator most likely. So it's the overwhelming probability she's in an internment camp of a tiny possibility she's in WAC.
>>82828805
Arguing against an unlikely protagonist on the grounds of probability is supremely autistic.
>>82828669
Coming from an internment camp makes a better story
>>82826511
It would be automatically better.
>>82826455
So...captain japan?
I could dig it
Isn't Sunfire Japan's Captain America?
>>82828934
The entire premise of the thread is idiotic and autistic.
>>82829363
Other than wearing the colours of his country's flag, not really.
>>82828485
I don't know why but Iori as Iron Man cracks me the fuck up.
>>82826620
There is actually a cool story be told there, just not by Marvel. In the COIE continuity, the United States Goverment used nippo-american metahumans in the Pacific Front, most of them drafted under threat that if they didn't join, their families would be sent to internament camps, Tsunami being the most notable person that went through this.
