knitmeapony:redmageshabet:randumbpanic:Credit to: Stardust&MelancholyOh damn. Ladies and gentlemen, imagine if you will…Steve Yoshimoto Rogers. Growing up in the depression in San Francisco, Steve tried to join the Army at the beginning of the war, but was turned down repeatedly. (He tried to explain that he was American, born here, but even if they had been accepting half-Japanese soldiers at that point he was too skinny and sickly.) In ‘42 he and his best friend Bucky were shipped to Manzanar - by ‘43 they were accepting Nisei soldiers, and he and Bucky were both yes-yes boys. Bucky joined the 442nd but they still didn’t let Steve in - the conditions at the camp hadn’t done anything good for Steve’s health. Without Bucky there, there was nobody to keep Steve out of trouble, fighting the guards when they tried to bully the other internees, and by the end of ‘43 Steve was sent to the prison camp at Tule Lake with the other “incorrigibles”. It was there he met Dr. Erskine.Imagine if this was the face of the symbol of America.Holy shit, I love this, I WANT this. I want an ongoing 150 issue three-year series of this. -- source link
