also cap has a really cool line. I believe spider-man was freaking out because galactus is there and all and he asks cap how he can be so calm, and cap replies "Because I can hear it... Thunder!" yes it's a thor hype line but I always loved how cap says he can be calm because he knows his allies are helping.
Literally the equivalent of the DCAU to the whole DCEU. A lot of stories done in the DCAU (and other animated universes of DC characters) and they not only managed to miss the point with all it's characters, but also fumble BADLY the stories used. They literally had the blueprints, and decided to ignore it.
thats not even a fair comparison because secret wars isnt a fury story its an avengers story, mcu version is like making an adaptation of OT star wars where yodas the main character and finn kills the emperor, but that just shows how little modern marvel understands the history and impact of what they have and why it became iconic
EMH: shows Captain America being replaced and has Skrull Cap take advantage of his position to manipulate people. MCU: replaces Rhodey off-screen, retroactively ruins emotional moments, and causes plot holes.
What amazes me to no end is that not only did this show do a darn near perfect adaptation of Secret Invasion, almost even better than the comics did, it also gave a meaningful arc for Captain America, a character who wasn’t even IN the original Secret Invasion story! That’s some masterful story-crafting and character writing right there. This show really did a lot of things right in doing justice to the source material ✨
That is the true power of adaption of it honors the source material. They used what they knew of that story to create a fresh new one that honored the old but still had its own merits
I believe the captain America storyline is an adaptation of a story where a skrull traps him in some alien tech bubble and while he’s trapped they tell the American people that everyone is a skrull and to trust no one which leads to everyone attacking and killing each other. In the end Tony makes some device that deactivates the skrull’s powers before the avengers arrive and the thing (?) socks the shit out of him. Cold ass line from Steve he says “don’t bother he’s mine” and finishes the skrull off (I think it was with the classic triangle shield too). Good story liked it a lot can’t remember which comic it is specifically.
It was a really interesting creative liberty having Bucky Barnes actually die in WWII, but then having be brought back by the combined wish of both Captain America and Strucker. I was even more shocked when it's revealed that Bucky was the one who shot out Fury's right eye in this series.
Bucky being the one who shot out Fury's eye is such a good detail, like Punisher helping Fury on Winter Soldier (MCU theory that I recall either the Russo's or the writers confirm it was their intention lol)
What a like about the Purple Man Episode is that Vision knew from the start that Cap was not himself so he used the speech that Cap gave to him to help break free Cap.
The other reason why the costumes changed was cause Disney wanted all of the characters costumes to look exactly like the ones in the MCU. They put the show on hiatus for a year because of this and dragged out this skrull plot. Then after it ended they replaced it with Avengers assemble with the Avengers looking more like the MCU versions. It's a pity I preferred avengers earths mightiest Heroes as a cartoon. I loved the look and aesthetics of the characters and the world which was similar to Jack Kirby's art work and the stories. I was also looking forward to seeing more plots with Dr Doom, the X-Men and the F4.
The MCU did this show dirty. I would have loved it if Doctor doom became a major villain in season 3 but I love every second of screen time he got in this series
I would say its more of just to avoid confusion for the inevitable showdown between Real Cap and Skrull Cap. That, and for it to really have been a dig against Ultimate Cap, Skrull Cap would have been more of the blowhard jingo Ultimate Cap was.
4:50 I’ve just now realized that was a huge foreshadowing look at his shadow it’s not captain America’s shadow even before the reveal that he was a skrull
I love how Zemo is always depicted as one of THE most dangerous villains, when he has no powers. 😂😂 But when you read the comics, watch the movies, or the show, you can see why everyone treats him like such a collosal threat😂
@@bowserbreaker2515 What?! You seriously Think he wasn’t a Threat in Civil War or the Falcon & Winter Soldier Tv show?! Let’s be honest, Live Action will always feel Limited! But when you still get the Fundamentals down for a Character, it still works because the Character(s) are able to suit the Story being told!
You're probably one of the best youtubers I've seen cover EMH. On a side note, this was the best adaptation of Secret Invasion and it made me feel disappointed with the MCU more than i already was 😅
One detail I really like about Captain America's character that a lot of his depictions seem to forget, but I feel like was handled decently (if not explicitly) in EMH is that Cap is supposed to be the peak of human condition, not only physically but also *mentally*. He can bounce around his shield not because it's super special or the vibranium gives it that unique property; it certainly does help, but Cap's mind does the heavy lifting. Even if he is not particularly science smart, his brain is able to process information at the highest speed a human being should be capable of, allowing him to perfectly predict the trajectory of the shield. This depiction Cap displays it in ample quantities, and a very good example is the Purple Man episode, as you stated. He is very in tune with the people he works with and knows how to push their buttons to inspire them to greatness. He doesn't allow himself to be deceived, because as trusting and willing to believe in people as he is, he knows who to put his trust on and who isn't willing to be helped. He may not be the most learned individual, but he is decidedly the peak of ingenuity and insightfulness, and he sticks to his principles to the very end.
I kinda find it amusing how the skrull wore a suit very similar to the 1610 Ultimate Universe variant of Captain America, very telling how much the writers and creative team made sure to put in as much detail and love in as possible
You know what’s funny this show did both secret invasion and kind of a version of secret empire with Skrull cap technically speaking being sort of hydra cap but done better then the comics ever did in my opinion.
@@jacklansdale77 One long explanation later that's pretty much what happened plot wise and the inside cube good cap was released and bested hydra cap for the plot. Shame they had Stan Lee in his final years come out to in an attempt to quell the animosity for said plot line
So if it wasn't for the Kree, there wouldn't be a wormhole destroying the sun, Kang's wife wouldn't have stuck in time and thus Kang wouldn't time travel to conquer earth. How the hell did Kang's time travel investigations didn't know of the Kree's involvement? If it did, he would have gone for that faction instead.
Mostly a mixture of Ego and the Skrull. Fake cap caused the Kree to go with the sun wormhole. Fake cap also nearly got everyone on earth killed. Fake cap is responsible for a lot of the damage and dominos. Kang just took one look and blamed the first face he saw as we are not even sure if the original incident had fake cap being the one who caused the mission to fail... So that they get the wormhole. Ego was his main downfall and that is why he didn't double check his facts. Especially since he could have simply said "Captain America. You do not belong here. Let me take you back to your timeline." Which could have fixed a lot of problems.
We need a sympathetic villain, don't' think too much about it, if you do, you will start to think that this whole "kree/ultron impersonating captain america" is a cheap idea (which it is, but then again don't think too much about it).
You miss understand, Kang knew of the Kree, he told the avengers Captain America's presence in the past changed the future, erasing his timeline, Since now, the sun was never destroyed, so Kang never would come to conquer it afterwards It's not a timeloop
Did steve rogers ever get family? Not like a wife and kids but like... He was frozen for 50 years, his brother could be 90 years old but still alive and with his own family.
Depends on the continuity sometimes Bucky is Steve's older brother figure, sometimes a new recruit who becomes like a surrogate son and sometimes like in the MCU they're childhood friends. @bravobird9435
The skrull invasion arc was done so well, they simultaneously made cap even cooler and better by showing him survive the skrulls torture and free their prisoners, leading the charge
Wonder how long Thor is expecting Caps reputation to stay ruined, he is an immortal asgardian so Thor could be speaking of decades, although asgardian grudges would last longer with longer lives.
16:30 i totally agree. Its even funnier because so many animals in nature ALSO have unyielding spirits, they just dont have the logic to use it as effectively as us, but i think its a trope because its easy to imagine bigger, stronger, faster, smarter enemies, and its also natural to root for underdogs, and acting like humanities spirit is amazing is an easy, unmeasurable way to turn the tide, make "sense" and support the underdog motif in fiction. However this makes me wonder how a "more unyielding" alien species would act. logically theres only so unyielding you can get, and an alien species that embodies that would probably seem irrational to us (space marines??)
Well humanity has thrived historically because we have more stamina than the things we hunted and were able to adapt to problems not just by learning but also by teaching the things that make humanity special historically really are our ability to just keep going longer than everything else and change when that alone doesn't work
God man, another reminder of how much miss this show. This show was made by a bunch of comic book nerds (I think of what I have read so far) which this series was originally made for the “Hulk” but became so much more (if you want further details, just look it up). It wasn’t the Avengers movie that introduced me to most of the these characters. It was this show that I watched on Disney XD along side with Ultimate Spider-man (to me, a guilty pleasure show now but today I prefer or recommend Spectacular). But great analysis man you definitely get my subscribe. Edit: sorry man I just wanted to fix something’s
This was a good arc for Captain America from having his Identity Stolen and his repartition ruined but he still kept to his Hero ideals seeing him The only one to believe Hulk’s Innocent seeing that Vision could be more than what he was created for and his respect for Spider-Man always doing the right thing even when the world is against him.
Season 2 is EMH isn't quite as strong as the first, but it's still really fantastic. This version of Secret Invasion is better than the comics and way better than the MCU.
I wanted to say, sadly for a long time there was not much content about this show on TH-cam. I would check every couple of months, and there'd be one or two good videos at most per year. It makes me so happy that you have been pumping them out on a regular basis.
16:15, funnily enough that's pretty much how we beat every other species on earth for the dominant spot, so it'd make sense that if we were to beat aliens it'd be in the same way
The producers of the show used captain america vol 3 #8 as an inspiration for this storyline along secret invaison that cameout 10 years after that comic. In the comics a fake agent of hydra who was an skrull replace captian america and tried to generate panic and ruined his image, so cap escaped and atopped the skrull evil plan
10:32 I think it's because of his training/life as a soldier. Soldiers are meant to hold up against torture when interrogated, as they cannot afford to give their plans to the enemy.
I’m glad to see someone finally doing a breakdown and giving this show the respect it deserves. Ironically enough, I think this show set the standard for me on what I expected from the MCU and is why I’m so disappointed with most of the movies up to this point
I would love one day for another seasons of this show. I was waiting for captain America and Viper to be a thing because there were a chemistry between them. It would have been amazing to see that on screen ❤️🇦🇺
Always like the design of Skrull Captain America always wanted MCU Cap to adopt this look especially the force field shield or thought Bucky should get a force field shield with his arm
The way Tony and Steve share leadership in various incarnations of the team is quite interesting. Sure it's caused conflict, but mostly they both respect that the other is the best man for the job in various situations and otherwise pull each other back from taking the wrong path.
16:16 Thank you! The indomitable human spirit is such a positive and uplifting message, but people just had to apply this weird human supremacy angle to it. It's why I can not stand HFY stories.
Was it just me or where Vipra and Cap kinda a vibe in the show. I very much remember thinking that the two would end up getting together when I was a kid
I remember during the Secret Invasion arc of season 2, I always found Queen Veranke really annoying. I know in the comics, Norman Osborn kills Veranke by impaling her with the American flag straight out of the Patriot, and I just wished we had something akin to that in Earth's Mightiest Heroes.
I personally believe that this version of secret invasion partially inspired the secret empire comic run, mainly because of how captain America is used. Even though both versions are completely different characters and situations, in both versions, captain America uses his position and title to slowly manipulate events in his favour (emh - uses the red hulk situation to further drive the avengers apart while still maintaining the illusion of captain America, se - uses the civil war 2 conflict between iron man and captain marvel to further his own plans while still coming across as perfectly fine) both versions also believe they are doing it for the best (skrull cap is doing it for his people and hydra cap genuinely believes in what he is doing). Obviously there are differences but it's interesting to see how similar in aspects these stories are
In a tiny bit of fairness, Zemo not putting 2 and 2 together makes sense. The only shapeshifter he knows is Amora who cannot be cap at the time, I think someone so obsessed would recognize a cheap impersonator and while someone getting all the plastic surgery need to perfectly impersonate Steve has been done in the comics, assuming such a thing happened would violate Occam’s razor. Leaving the time period causing cap’s quick change in personality, which while unlikely being the best explanation.
Woulda been awesome if Skrull Cap would be just as honorable as Real Cap was. Cuz at this point, Real Cap's sense of honor is so stronkk it might as well be a superpower, and Skrulls do love copying superpowers.
3 questions 1. How would you feel if “The Deadliest Man Alive” was the 15th episode of the series instead of Powerless ? 2. How would you feel if Spider-Man interacted with more heroes in EMH ? 3. When did Captain America get kidnapped twice ? I thought he was only kidnapped once by the Skrulls unless if you want to count the time, he was kidnapped by the Masters of Evil.
1. Honestly I felt powerless while an amazing episode felt far to episodic and was just kinda shoved in the best place it could fit which was ep 15 2 I wish we saw more Spider-Man but the season itself was already so busy we would have to sacrifice more screen time from other avengers who already didn’t have a lot of it 3 he was kidnapped and replaced by skrulls, then faked being replaced by ultron, then he was controlled by Purple man. Honestly that line was setting up a joke I had to just completely forgot to follow through on lol
18:44 Josh Keaton is actually in this episode because they forgot to dub over one of his lines. It’s very quick, he says something to the extent of “Is this safe?” but it’s very distinctly him and not Dr*ke Bell
16:28 Yeah that gets annoying after a while. Just once I'd like a story where a non-human species has more of an indomitable will and determination than humans.
These stories are the reason why AEMH Cap is my favorite version of the character, MCU version is pretty good, and I love Chris Evans, but the MCU version just pales in comparison to this version, whenever I think of Captain America, I think of AEMH version.
Weren't comic skulls identical in every minute way, even in memories? Like they wouldn't even remember being skrulls themselves until their memories are activated?
Like u, i love both season S1 is great ad building the word, but not just ad S2 but and some point in s1 the show lust let the world bread and use the story's from the comics and a little of them self to make a amazing series
also cap has a really cool line.
I believe spider-man was freaking out because galactus is there and all and he asks cap how he can be so calm, and cap replies "Because I can hear it... Thunder!"
yes it's a thor hype line but I always loved how cap says he can be calm because he knows his allies are helping.
His belief in people is outstanding.
EMH to MCU: That’s how you do a Secret Invasion.
Literally the equivalent of the DCAU to the whole DCEU.
A lot of stories done in the DCAU (and other animated universes of DC characters) and they not only managed to miss the point with all it's characters, but also fumble BADLY the stories used.

This is how storytelling should be
My Goat ❤️
The skull cap costume was actually my favourite and I wish real cap wore it tbh
Cap dropping his rank while being interrogated is def badass
All these episodes made me a Cap fan especially with him getting our Hulk back and not trusting Red Hulk one bit
This will always be my favorite depiction of Captain America.
wow that last bit really got me. damn good show.

Cap believing in hulk even after the red hulk hype is loyalty at its finest 🇺🇸
16:19 it’s fine sometimes cause it can be so goddamn badass, like with this scene
Nah the line about name, rank, and serial number was so cold it stuck with until this day after I saw it as a kid
16:16 Thank you! The indomitable human spirit is such a positive and uplifting message, but people just had to apply this weird human supremacy angle to it. It's why I can not stand HFY stories.
God this series was amazing
Was it just me or where Vipra and Cap kinda a vibe in the show. I very much remember thinking that the two would end up getting together when I was a kid
The power of the indomitable human spirit
I remember during the Secret Invasion arc of season 2, I always found Queen Veranke really annoying. I know in the comics, Norman Osborn kills Veranke by impaling her with the American flag straight out of the Patriot, and I just wished we had something akin to that in Earth's Mightiest Heroes.
Vid was amazing, but I need that Iron Man armored adventures Pt 2 ❤
I personally believe that this version of secret invasion partially inspired the secret empire comic run, mainly because of how captain America is used. Even though both versions are completely different characters and situations, in both versions, captain America uses his position and title to slowly manipulate events in his favour (emh - uses the red hulk situation to further drive the avengers apart while still maintaining the illusion of captain America, se - uses the civil war 2 conflict between iron man and captain marvel to further his own plans while still coming across as perfectly fine) both versions also believe they are doing it for the best (skrull cap is doing it for his people and hydra cap genuinely believes in what he is doing). Obviously there are differences but it's interesting to see how similar in aspects these stories are

Wait I swear this show was canceled before we got to see what happened to Steve and the Skrulls, I've never seen past that cliffhanger.
It wasn't it got canned after the 26th episode of season 2
Same. Thought they left it like that when I saw season 2 I remembered I did watch this
In a tiny bit of fairness, Zemo not putting 2 and 2 together makes sense.
The only shapeshifter he knows is Amora who cannot be cap at the time, I think someone so obsessed would recognize a cheap impersonator and while someone getting all the plastic surgery need to perfectly impersonate Steve has been done in the comics, assuming such a thing happened would violate Occam’s razor. Leaving the time period causing cap’s quick change in personality, which while unlikely being the best explanation.
4:50 totally has a skrull in the shadow. Never noticed that before
18:37 I always knew that, deep inside I knew, there should have been spectacular Spider-man. I hate you, Disney!
Woulda been awesome if Skrull Cap would be just as honorable as Real Cap was. Cuz at this point, Real Cap's sense of honor is so stronkk it might as well be a superpower, and Skrulls do love copying superpowers.
Your voice is immaculate brother
3 questions
1. How would you feel if “The Deadliest Man Alive” was the 15th episode of the series instead of Powerless ?
2. How would you feel if Spider-Man interacted with more heroes in EMH ?
3. When did Captain America get kidnapped twice ? I thought he was only kidnapped once by the Skrulls unless if you want to count the time, he was kidnapped by the Masters of Evil.
1. Honestly I felt powerless while an amazing episode felt far to episodic and was just kinda shoved in the best place it could fit which was ep 15
2 I wish we saw more Spider-Man but the season itself was already so busy we would have to sacrifice more screen time from other avengers who already didn’t have a lot of it
3 he was kidnapped and replaced by skrulls, then faked being replaced by ultron, then he was controlled by Purple man. Honestly that line was setting up a joke I had to just completely forgot to follow through on lol
Love your videos men. I hope you do more X men evolution down the line.
The brain loves patting itself on the back

18:44 Josh Keaton is actually in this episode because they forgot to dub over one of his lines.
It’s very quick, he says something to the extent of “Is this safe?” but it’s very distinctly him and not Dr*ke Bell
This reminds of the Secret Empire event that came out after the show. Although this show was way better written than that.
SECOND SEASON TIME
Also this might be insane, I would still bark for Red Skull Virus Wasp
💀💀💀
In other words captain america always believes in people even when they don't believe in themselves.
was I the only one who was chanting USA USA when cap was giving his speech while he was beating up is skrull doppleganger
Now hear me out... they took Hulk's body to swap out... whos gonna stop him 😂
9:33 EMH confirmed Hulk used to be Gray in this universe
16:28 Yeah that gets annoying after a while. Just once I'd like a story where a non-human species has more of an indomitable will and determination than humans.
I saw all the vids up to this point lol
Cap ran towards the fake hammer like ooo ooo i always wanted to use this
Amazing Video, definitely going to subscribe and watch your other content 👍
9:25 Because of course, the military doesn't ever see race. /s
These stories are the reason why AEMH Cap is my favorite version of the character, MCU version is pretty good, and I love Chris Evans, but the MCU version just pales in comparison to this version, whenever I think of Captain America, I think of AEMH version.
captain america: your first avenger
Weren't comic skulls identical in every minute way, even in memories?
Like they wouldn't even remember being skrulls themselves until their memories are activated?
The wiki says they don't gain the characteristics of the people they shape shift into but that might have been retconned.
As a MCU fan, I honestly say they didn't need to adapt Secret Wars cause they made the Skrulls the good guys
Like u, i love both season
S1 is great ad building the word, but not just ad S2 but and some point in s1 the show lust let the world bread and use the story's from the comics and a little of them self to make a amazing series
21:20 oh no! is the man behind the slaughter!
19:56 Oh hey, a Stan Lee cameo.
Funny how serious the cartoon for children handled every storyline compared to the multimillion dollar movie franchise
Are you going to do the thanos of this animation series?
We need a continuation of this series the same way we got the continuation of x-men 97
