Marvel Comics has unveiled a first look at a new Captain America.
The new ethics, Aaron Fischer, represents the first LGBTQ character to pick up Cap’s shield in the comic’s 80-year history.
Fischer is described as “the Captain America of the Railways — a fearless teen who stepped up to guard fellow runaways and the unhoused. Marvel Comics is proud to honor Pride Month with the rise of this new Homosexual hero.”
The limited series is titled The United States of Captain America and follows “Steve Rogers teaming up with Captain Americas of the past — Bucky Barnes, Sam Wilson and John Walker — on a street trip across America to discover his stolen shield.

Captain America never meant anything to me, until now.
The idea has always seemed absurd: He’s a military jock who represents a racist territory ruled by the rich — and we’re supposed to root for him? The character turns eighty years former this year, and as far as I was concerned he’s overstayed his welcome.
So imagine my surprise when I found myself looking forward to a new Captain America issue, thanks to a new approach to the character: No longer a creaky old symbol of America’s imagined might, The Combined States of Captain America introduces a legion of local heroes across the country, each one heroes in their own communities.
One Captain America is a homeless same-sex attracted teen named Aaron Fischer; another is a Filipino American college student named Ari Agbayani; another is a Dark woman named Nichelle Wright. Rather than pretending that America is a blond chisel-jawed liberator, these Captains reflect a multiplicity of backgrounds, values, and first-hand experiences of injustice. Opening the issue, the first image my eyes landed on was of Rosa Parks’ dress next to Harvey Milk’s bullhorn.
