Spider-Man Unforgiven WW II fb with Captain America

Post by Leoparis »

Raizo Kodo (a centuries-old vampire), "Years ago I was in Japan [...] a war raging around us. [...] Then I saw Captain America. He was strong and fast, superhuman like me, with a power that came from his blood. [...] So I joined him." The image shows American soldiers parachuting.

American soldiers only parachuted on mainland Japan on Aug 30, 1945, after Japan had agreed to surrender, too late for Steve Rogers...

At the Battle of Iwo Jima (19 February – 26 March 1945), the island was uninhabited by civilians. Unless we reason those pacifistic vampires went there on purpose... That's one possibility.

This could also refer to Okinawa, invaded on April 1st, 1945, even if that date is rather late. Previously no Captain America story placed him in the Pacific Theater in 1945. But Captain America has been placed at the start of many offensives (Guadalcanal, Anzio, Sicily, D-Day, etc.) so this matches that pattern.

So we have two possible suggestions:

Iwo Jima suggestion:
CAPTAIN AMERICA/STEVE ROGERS
CA 601-FB
*SMUNF 1-FB
CAC 47

Okinawa suggestion:
CAPTAIN AMERICA/STEVE ROGERS
CA:RW&B /4
*SMUNF 1-FB
CA 259-FB

KODO, RAIZO
TOD:TOB-FB
FI:FLSS 2-FB
*SMUNF 1-FB
X3 11-FB
TOD:TOB-BTS
FI:HV.D 1
