Next Captain America Movie Story Speculation
The next installment in the Captain America movie series is due in theaters May 6, 2016 and speculation has begun about the storyline. In an interesting article on Comic Book Resources all thoughts point to using a storyline from the very successful Ed Brubaker run on Captain America. Some of the possible story lines include (and remember, this is pure speculation):
Twenty-First Century Blitz (Captain America #18-21)
This storyline would add UK heroes Union Jack and Spitfire.
The Death Of The Dream (Captain America #25-30)
This storyline would fix the problem of Chris Evans as the sole portrayer of Captain America and allow a follow on actor to don the Red, White and Blue in future movies.
Old Friends & Enemies (Captain America #46-48)
I don’t like this one as much since Bucky would already have to be Captain America, a big leap from film to film.
Two Americas (Captain America #602-605)
Maybe, a lot going on here.
American Dreamers (Captain America #1-5)
Could be but Marvel would have to move a character firmly rooted in their Earth reality to the space/alternate dimension game. Will they go that far? Maybe, maybe not.
My bet, if any of these are used, is the Death of Captain America storyline. How about you?

Comic Book Values, Grading and CGC Video Series
If you want to hear some realities about comic book values, grading and CGC I highly recommend you take some time and view the three videos below. While there are a few things I disagree with, this was an impromptu video and not meant to be all inclusive so I give the interviewee wide latitude. The general themes he discusses are correct.
In the first video he highlights a copy of Metal Men #17. That book in CGC 7.0 sold for $20, in CGC 9.0 it sold for $75.00, a perfect example of what he’s talking about in the decision to send to CGC.
I encourage you to add your comments below.
