In Captain America: Symbol of Truth #2, Sam Wilson sets out to find Deadpool in his current search for answers, leading to a volatile team.
Captain America is on a collision course with Marvel’s own Merc with a Mouth.
Captain America: Symbol of Truth #2 sees Sam Wilson continue his search for answers regarding the missing Super-Soldier Serum and mysterious apparitions. At some point along the way, he stops in Latvia to see if Deadpool has any useful information. Unfortunately, Sam’s hero seems to face a much more violent kind of interrogation when the Avenger calls.
Wade Wilson, aka Deadpool, first appeared in 1991 New Mutants #98 by co-creators Rob Liefeld and Fabian Nicieza. A former mercenary with impossible powers as part of the same Weapon X program that created Wolverine, Deadpool has long been one of the fiercest figures in the Marvel Universe. Over the years, Wade was a prominent member of teams such as X-Force and the short-lived Avengers Unity Division. Since his first appearance, Deadpool’s persona has also settled into a much less serious tone, which has helped propel the character to unexpected heights of pop culture stardom.
Sam Wilson made his debut in the Marvel universe in 1969 Captain America #117 like the Falcon. Sam spent years as Cap’s loyal partner before accepting the role for himself at a time when Steve Rogers was unable to continue as such. Despite Steve’s return since then, Sam remained as Captain America, setting a now-profound precedent that there shouldn’t be just one Star-Spangled Avenger.
Sam’s latest adventure is shrouded in mystery. The return of classic Marvel villain White Wolf set an enigmatic tone to Captain America: Symbol of Truth going forward, with the events unfolding now being somehow tied to those in Wakanda. White Wolf has also hired the services of Crossbones, another iconic albeit more menacing villain with whom Captain America has plenty of experience. The series takes place at the same time as Captain America: Sentinel of Freedomwhich features Steve Rogers as the titular hero as he explores his own sprawling conspiracy.
