Next week: Shang-Chi is asked a question by a tourist he can't answer, and the Avengers - who have been following his every footstep the whole time - dogpile him, having finally determined that he's Crossed The Line.
-"We don't"- "... because that's what you would do?" "Because that's what I would do." "... didn't you have a brother as recently as last year? Where is he, anyway?" "Oh... uh.... um... he's... in space. Yeah..."
Turns out the book actually contains his dad’s hit list and Punisher thought Shang-Chi was going to assassinate the people named within. Shang-Chi would later earn the ire of the Guardians of the Galaxy when an underling of his sister hid a kidnapped alien princess in his fish tank, whom he was about to unwittingly poison with fish food.
REED: How do know he didn't just give up his brother to cover himself?
TONY: We don't.
STEVE: No, we do know, because Shang-Chi's more moral and honorable than the two of you put together. This is the guy who discovered his father was evil and *immediately* turned on him.
TONY: Are you still angry about Civil War?
REED: Or brainwiping you about our planet killing?
STEVE: Current? Mostly not noticing I'd been replaced by a Nazi. But Shang is still obviously not evil.
Oh, so the second the Avengers show up for a crossover, BANG alienated from his teammates and aliies, and has a new villain coming to wreck his shit. I see how it is.
I guess this is a metaphor for American foreign policy somehow.
