Ep. 155: PCU- Captain America (From 1944 to 2014)
About this episode
The PULP CINEMATIC UNIVERSE returns as Zach, Matt, and special guest Natalie Gordon Beiser assemble to tackle the Golden Age routes and journey of the very first Avenger, CAPTAIN AMERICA!
Settle in and listen as the trio unpack the origins of the characters creation, sift through the strange tale of the 1944 Republic Serials conception and execution, MARVEL at the journey Cap undergoes from portrayals by Dick Purcell all the way up to Chris Evans, and finally analyze the importance of the character and how he has stood the test of time across all media.
PLUS: A word is used awkwardly in the Serial and we dare you not to laugh.
