One more thing about Sam. Didn't when he was first introduced in the Marvel Universe (the movies), he had some sort of "disability"? Hence the reason why he retired from the military and was working for the VA? Like he had a back injury or something....I wonder why they chose not to continue to address this?. Oh well....
The MCU really missed a trick here and with a number of non-enhanced characters.
I get they didn’t want to go with the character from the comics but if he was just going to be a normal person then they could’ve at least given him some kind of enhancement.
It would’ve take two seconds when they first introduced the character to explain he had an injury and some kind of enhancement to fix it such as a prosthetic. This then enhances his other abilities and provides some justification for all of the amazing stuff he’ll have to do to go toe to toe with superheroes and aliens.
Instead we’re supposed to believe that giving him wings allows allows him to take on the universe.
This is the issue with all of the other non-enhanced characters including and especially Tony Stark. Again if he was to be THE hero and eventually was to go to toe to toe with Thanos they should’ve just included a line that the arc reactor in his chest gave him some kind of physical boost or given him extremis.
Had Iron Man 3 at least set this up then it would’ve contributed something to the MCU.
