What? Steve Rogers is, and has always been a Hydra agent? I’m just as shocked as everyone else with this news. Everyone, including Steve Rogers himself: Chris Evans.
Hydra?!?!? #sayitaintso

Therealstanlee.com says that, in the new title, Captain America: Steve Rogers, Cap turned on his sidekick, Jack Flag, throwing him out of a plane, right before hollering “Hail Hydra!” Furthermore, Rogers’s mother joined Hydra when he was little, influencing him from a young age.
This almost sounds like Grant Ward’s arc in Agents of SHIELD. When he betrayed his teammates, it was revealed that he had been loyal to father figure and Hydra agent, John Garrett (created by comic vet, Frank Miller), played by veteran actor, Bill Paxton (Aliens, Twister).
Fans are outraged by this revelation. If Marvel is smart, then they would correct this with some twisty writing, if they hadn’t planned to do so already. Perhaps this is an evil clone, android, or brainwash. Though, if his mother was Hydra, then maybe this is the real deal. I don’t know. What I do know is that it doesn’t look like Evans will play this version of Cap in the movies. At least not without a fight.
You can see Evans in his latest outing as the star-spangled-Hydra-ass-kicking hero in Captain America: Civil War, in the theaters now. You can read this travesty in Captain America: Steve Rogers #1, on shelves now. And then find out what this all means, Basil, in the next issue, when it hits June 29th.
