A list of the comic book creator special thanks for Captain America: Brave New World, from Jack Kirby to Barry Windsor Smith to Belinda Glass

These are the comic book creator credits present in the Captain America: Brave New World movie that launches this week from Marvel Studios. First appearing are:

The producers would like to recognize Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuinness for their significant contributions to the Red Hulk character
The producers would like to recognize Rick Remender and Carlos Pacheco for their significant contributions to this film

Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuinness originated General Ross at the Red Hulk in their Hulk comic book series and Rick Remender and Carlos Pacheco originated the Sam Wilson as Captain America storyline in their Captain America run. Later on in the credits, we get “Captain America created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby” followed by Special Thanks to the following comic book creators. I have added my best guesses as for what the thanks are for, feel free to correct or clarify in the comments.

Captain America: Brave New World screening/Rich Johnston

As for the film? I rather enjoyed it. It is very much a sequel to the Incredible Hulk movie that starred Ed Norton, much more than I realised, as well as the Falcon & The Winter Soldier TV series, which I did. And yes, one can read all sorts of political issues depending on one’s standpoint of dealing with a monster in the White House who takes whatever measures he has to stay there as well as establish a legacy. But this monster also wants to establish peace, no matter how many people he has to kill to get it, while dealing with his own failing health and competence. There are plenty of people within the film who doubt Sam Wilson’s claim on the title, including Sam Wilson himself, but he definitely seems to prove himself to the world and maybe, just maybe to himself as well. Ten years has proved a good maturing for Tim Blake Nelson as The Leader, making him a far more sinister threat, while Giancarlo Esposito tones down Gus from Breaking Bad for Sidewinder. Well, he needs to be redeemed for Thunderbolts*, does he not? Overall, this is probably the best Hulk movie to date and definitely one of the top four Captain America movies, too. Here’s a little look at the setup for the screening in London’s Leicester Square last night, in photos and video.
