The decision to turn Steve Rogers into a Hydra agent did not sit well with one lifelong Captain America fan. Jason Elder sent his thoughts to Marvel executive editor Tom Brevoort:

As a Former Active Duty US Marine and a Disabled Veteran, I want you to know that when I joined the Marines back in 95’ I did so under a strict Code of Ethics. Truth, Honor and Justice. This Code was inspired by Steve Rogers. I knew I could never be the person he was, I just wasn’t mentally built for it, but it gave me something to strive for. Yes, the Character of Stever Rogers AKA Captain America is a fictional one, but it is also one that emboydies what the Idea Human Being, not just American should strive to be. Steve Rogers never claimed to be perfect, but he tried his best every day to do the right thing no matter what.

For the last 21 years I have modeled my own Moral Code after the belief that I would NEVER tell a Lie, No matter the consequences. There is no such thing as “a little white lie”. My Honesty, and My Honor was everything to me. It kept me from becoming the Monster that I could have easily become. Thanks to your idiocy and disregard for what an American Symbol stood for, you have made it “OK” to disregard those Ideals. It apperantly is ok to Lie, Cheat, Steal and Murder, because [frick] It, who cares right? Steve Rogers aka Captain American has been doing it for 75 YEARS.

Fine, congradulations, you have made the last 21 years of my life and the Code I lived by, the hardships I endured because I refused to sacrifice that Code MEANINGLESS. You have disgraced what Joe Simon and Jack Kirby had the character stand for. The whole point of that Character was to showcase the potential of what human beings could be. Dispite the Odds stacked against them.

So, thanks to you two I will be throwing away my Moral Code, and become The Monster, that people feared I might become, that I myself feared I would become. I will use every resource at my disposal, every avenue that I can to locate and track you down. I WILL find you eventually, and I WILL kill you in the most painful way possible that I can think of. The ONLY way to stop me is to have me killed. But hey, that should be a walk in the park for you right? I mean I am just one disgruntled Marine, what is one more life compared to the MILLIONS of LIVES you just dismissed by making Captain America a Hydra Agent ALL ALONG. NOTHING and I mean NOTHING you say will erase what you have done, HYDRA was ALWAYS SYNOMOUS with NAZIS. You CANNOT seperate the two. So enjoy your “Fame” while you are able to still draw breath. It’s just a matter of time before I find you.

This dude needs some help! It is a fictional character on issue 1. There is no way Marvel makes its cash cow into a villain. He will surely change or have an explanation for his treachery. So calm down a bit man and find a psychiatrist.

Jesus dude, it's just a comic. I don't like the idea of him being Hydra either, but it's obvious it's a publicity stunt. Even if it isn't, it's just a comic book.

I just read all of it...

Holy shit. He just threatened to kill the guy in the most horrific fashion and seems pretty compelled to do it.

Wow. That's [frick]ed

@BatmanHeisenberg - He probably isn't a marine, hell, he probably didn't even use his real name.

He's another whiny, pedantic nerd, who thinks that this "death threat" is just typical internet behaviour and won't have any repercussions on him. He should beware though, in this day and age of terrorism and mass shootings the police are likely to take this threat incredibly seriously.

If you model yourself after Steve Rogers, why the hell would you threaten someone over a comic book?! That's the most un-Captain America thing I've ever heard.

Did he just put his real name in his death threat?

This psycho should go to jail even if he say he wasn't serious.

@DjTheMarvelKid - @DjTheMarvelKid - " I'm ok with murder over a comicbook character. "

It's dumb, people are taking this twist too seriously.

If the skrull invasion had happen now, the internet will be hilarious.

"My childhood is ruined, Cap is a green alien, I have to become the monster, the night"

It's just a temporary twist
