Part of this feels like a reference to the mid-90s HEROES REBORN Captain America or even that ICE story from right before Brubaker's run.
I'm expecting Cap to say something like "See, this is why there are conspiracy theories about me being deliberately frozen so I wouldn't protest the use of the atomic bomb."
So, far ORIGINAL SIN seems to be less "Character A did a bad, bad thing" and more "Character A made a mistake and lied to his friends about it," with said friends being angrier over the lying than the mistake.
Nothing I hate more than a character saying they're going to unveil the secrets.... right after this month long interlude, see ya next issue, folks!
It's neat though that Captain America's old "Commander Steve Rogers" seems to have become the standard uniform for important SHIELD characters. It's good design.
Agreed on the uniform part. Having that uniform or variations on it become standard issue for SHIELD superheroes is one of the best superhero costuming choices I've seen in a long while.
Heck, this may be the first time that the Hammond Human Torch is sporting a better costume than the Storm Human Torch.
I like Radiance as a character, but I hate her Psuedo Japanese name. It's usually "Adjective Noun Name" for super characters in Japan. I mean, just take a quick sample:
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.

And so on.
"Supreme Radiant Friend" just doesn't work -- unless it sounds really cool in Japanese.
