Heads up to Captain America and/or Agent 13 fans: an anti-rec

[eliyes]

Got the Captain America one-shot about the original Agent 13 and hated it. Peggy is awesome, but the people who put this together decided that instead of her just being flat out awesome like she was, they had to make Cap into an asshole and her all mad at him in order to build her up. This pissed me off because Cap's not an asshole -- he is especially not an uncontrollably violent and hormonal, unmindful jerk like in this book -- and also Peggy does not need building up, she was already totally awesome on her own!

Fans of Cap and Mademoiselle 13, I don't recommend this book.

Well, Methos was around during WWII. He wasn't killing Nazis in Russia like MacLeod was -- I'm pretty sure he was a doctor again at the time, like he was during the American Civil War -- but I am just saying that a Highlander-verse/Captain America crossover is possible. ;3

Steve: I'm all alone in the future. Everyone I knew is dead. There's no one left I--

Methos: Doot dee doo--

Steve: Wait.

Methos: Uh.

Steve: I know you.

Methos: No you don't.

Steve: Yeah, I do. B|

Methos: ...*flee*

Steve: *Super Soldier tackle* :D

Methos: Crap.

Methos would be extremely put out. Normally he has a buzz in his head to warn him when he runs a chance of running into someone from his past (where "his past" means "a previous life").

Steve: *follows Methos home*

Methos: *leads him right to MacLeod, because misery loves company*

MacLeod: Steve!

Steve: Duncan!

Methos: *drops his head into his hands while thye have a back-pounding hug reunion*
