And after being tied up in to Zemo's Helicarrier, no one saw him for a long time, to the point that in USAvengers it's said that everyone just thinks he's dead.

And obviously, that second "death" wouldn't be blamed on the kids.

And we aren't talking about what you thought of Undercover either.

When and where did U.S. Agent talk about Arcade?

Between the end of Dark Avengers and his re-appearance in Captain America: Sam Wilson, I know of no such appearance he has had, and none of those would allow for Arcade to be mentioned.

So please, tell me where this happened?

Or provide scans of it to solidify your point.

But keep in mind the "Modern comic writers think Wikipedia is a valid primary research tool" remains a thing that could undermine it.

Also; unsolicited opinions about comics!

USAVENGERS #3 Where we learn that the Gold Skull has been using Arcade's robots.

Thank you.

I went and checked it out and . . . you're still kinda wrong. (and I can't believe I confused US Agent with the USAvengers! Boy is my face red!)

It's Sunspot who makes the statement, which is:

"[Arcade]'s an old friend. An international assassin who creates complex death traps -- and deadly games of chance. He plays to ease his own ennui. Currently missing, presumed dead."

Not exactly a slam dunk for 'everyone thinks Arcade is dead.'

Especially in a superhero universe where they are at least meta enough to know not everyone stays dead, villains doubly so.

But I suppose it just comes down to different textual reads.
