Arguably the greatest outcome of the endless stream of garbage Marvel and DC films, is that it has spawned an entire sub-genre of films and series’ that lampoon those blockbuster characters. Without Marvel’s unending, soulless output, we’d never had gotten The Boys. And without Chris Evan’s prudish, priggish, insufferably sanctimonious Captain America, we’d never have Soldier Boy. And that would’ve been a shame. Conjured up as clearly a mockery of Cap, the unexpected outcome is that Soldier Boy is the far more interesting, entertaining, and complex character.
