Thanks to a simple autograph, Marvel Stars Chris Evans and Sebastian Stan may have confirmed a major fan theory for Avengers: Infinity War.
The theory is that Captain America has left behind his superhero identity following the events of Captain America: Civil War. The possibility gained interest when Evans was signing autographs at the Ace Comic Con in Glendale, AZ. He signed one fan’s shield with the name “Nomad”, and Stan followed it up by writing “I’m with Nomad”.

It makes sense that he’d go undercover after the events of Civil War. And in the trailer for Infinity War, we actually get to see Cap with long hair and a beard as he hides in the shadows. It’s likely that he’s now taken on the name of Nomad, a codename that the character has used before in the comics.
While some fans may not believe the theory, it does seem to be a likely possibility. We’ll just have to find out once the film hits.
As the Avengers and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment – the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.
We know it’s going to be the biggest Marvel Cinematic Universe film to date – just by reading the synopsis:
An unprecedented cinematic journey ten years in the making and spanning the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, Marvel Studios’ “Avengers: Infinity War” brings to the screen the ultimate, deadliest showdown of all time. The Avengers and their Super Hero allies must be willing to sacrifice all in an attempt to defeat the powerful Thanos before his blitz of devastation and ruin puts an end to the universe.
Avengers: Infinity War hits theaters May 4, 2018.
