177. Spotlight: Captain America - The New Deal

Geeksplained Podcast

This past week marks 20 years since the September 11th attacks on our country, and in observance of this host Aeric Azana is diving into one of the defining comics of that time: Captain America - The New Deal. Set in a post-9/11 America, Steve Rogers finds himself in a strange, yet familiar world following the attacks. As Steve tries to rediscover what it means to be Captain America, a new threat emerges in the shadow of one of the greatest tragedies in modern history. This story is a snapshot of our country at that time, and 20 years later it remains surprisingly relevant. Alongside this month's Spotlight, we also have this weeks Comics Countdown, the Geeksplained Mailbag, and more!
