Marvel elects Captain America as our new US President in The Ultimates!

In a world where the United States needs a new President that will make changes, Marvel is answering the call and electing someone who will change things forever. In the upcoming The Ultimates #16, Steve Rogers will be sworn in as the President of the United States. Thats right! Captain America will be our President!

The United States in The Ultimates story is a ravaged nation trying to hold on to survival. Washington D.C. has been wiped off the map, a dictator is running Detroit, and the entire west is full of refugees. So what can we expect from Captain America as President? Writer Sam Humphries states:

"“Are we going to see 12 issues of Captain America behind a desk? No, that’s not exciting to anyone,” Humphries says. “Captain America is not going to behave like any other president behaves. He takes the oath of office and barely takes a breath as he goes to hot spots. . . . Cap is out there because he’s so concerned about the state of the Union that he doesn’t have time to think about the State of the Union.”"

So now we can expect a hands on President with Captain America. What do you think of this move by Marvel?
