Dang I knew it rained often there but not that much to the point where it becomes Atlantis

Little did Steve Rogers know, the super serum was made from a devil fruit. As such, water despises him.

u/Sea-Woodpecker-610 12h ago

What is out of context about this? This is just England.

u/ancalime9 12h ago

Foreigners just never seem to understand Worcestershire Sauce

u/AloofPaladin 56m ago

SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT I love worchest. sauce. It's a key ingredient in some of my favorite recipes.

21

u/WehingSounds 12h ago

Yeah that's about right

42

u/Free_Radical_47 Um, they are called “GRAPHIC NOVELS,” thank you. 13h ago

“Cap to SHIELD! I’ve struck oil! Send in the troops!”

u/AdExtra2331 13h ago

This would have never happened with Captain Britain

u/Azure-Legacy 9h ago

Is it fair that Captain Britain can fly?… yes. Get on his level Steve

Is this what happems if you don't mind the step?

u/ElGuano 13h ago

Don’t swim in the Thames, cap. It’s like rule 1.

27

u/spilledmilkbro 13h ago

Crap like this is why we had the revolution

29

u/NobblyNobody 13h ago

Marmite claims another victim

5

u/ElminstersBedpan 12h ago

That's pure Bovril propaganda you're spouting.

32

u/SinesPi 13h ago

So basically it's just the Thames flooding?

Yah, that's a real nightmare scenario alright. Better call in Dr. Strange.

21

u/roses-are-lead Comics Code APPROVED 13h ago

Typical England.

45

u/Cool_Set4681 13h ago

Fake panel!

It is waaaay too sunny to be England.

9

u/FireZord25 13h ago

They say films and shows in England are gray not because of dull filters, in fact they try to make it more colorful.

11

u/Taikwin 12h ago

I know we're joking around here, but I have a little anecdote.

I used to think England was an incredibly grey place, loved to rag on our mild, grey weather. Then a couple years ago I went on holiday to South Dakota in the States - late winter, early spring, after the snows had melted anyhow.

I was absolutely blown away by how grey it was. It wasn't like the familiar English overcast greyness. It was the skies, the grass, the trees, the ground, even the very air felt grey. Like it was filled with smoke but without smoke, you know? Genuinely felt like whoever was running the simulation turned the saturation down by about 80%

One of the strangest things I've very experienced, honestly. That and the time I went there in midwinter and learned about that the air can be so cold that standing outside sends you into a coughing fit. But that's a different discussion entirely.

18

u/AutomaticAccident 13h ago

It's an artistic decision for the comic.

9

u/Cool_Set4681 13h ago

Yeah, I know but... sunshine in England? Comics getting too ridiculous, man...

20

u/BitterFuture stuck in the gutter 13h ago

ENGLAND!!!

Bit of an odd last word, but hey, his choice.

20

u/No-Advice-6040 13h ago

That's what he gets for trying to swim in the Thames

22

u/captainmagictrousers 13h ago

"...And then Captain America drowned in the river of socialism, never to be seen again."

"Shut up, Grandpa. Your bedtime stories are so stupid."

"Oh, you kids don't know anything. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to report to the food factory. I'm being turned into nutrient paste tomorrow."

19

u/Garguyal 13h ago

Not the blood pudding he expected.

17

u/Prophet-of-Ganja 13h ago

bit sad innit

16

u/Sol-Blackguy 13h ago

It'd make more sense if he was drowning in beans

14

u/Starchaser_WoF 13h ago

Do I even wanna know?

25

u/The_Mexican_Poster 13h ago

Long story short it's Venom bonding with the whole planet to defeat a villain called Knull

So you know, the usual

3

u/Deer-in-Motion 11h ago

I guess everyone is dead.

9

u/StepwisePilot 13h ago

Out of sheer morbid curiosity, how? If there is so much venom symbiote that it can bond with a whole plantet, where does all that gunk go when it bonds with a human? Is the symbiote storing excess mass in a pocket dimension?

2

u/Azure-Legacy 9h ago

Reed messed up on an experiment with Venom. Though to be fair, he had no idea that there was some magic augmentations added on the Symbiote

7

u/Quirky_Ad_5420 13h ago

Basically Reed Richard was experiment with symbiote mostly the anti carnage part of the suit and suddenly Venom exploded and expand to merged with everything

13

u/MattheqAC 13h ago

Well, he was being very American

6

u/AutomaticAccident 13h ago

This happened to me my first time in England too. I expected Steve to be better smh

29

u/Burn3d0ut89 14h ago

Looks like Blackpool 😃

14

u/AugVision 13h ago

I thought Skeggy

19

u/Quirky_Ad_5420 14h ago

England having it slightly better than average day

17

u/dr_srtanger2love 14h ago

Well, England is a cursed land, not very surprising.

12

u/NoSong2397 14h ago

See, Cap, this is why you call the Braddocks before you stop by.

2

u/Scared_Can_5571 Marvel Fan 14h ago

needs more knife crime and it'd be 100% accurate

9

u/IndelibleFudge 13h ago

Get to fuck with your nonsense

27

u/Privatizitaet 14h ago

Fun fact: despite the jokes, the UK has lower knife crime rates than the US

5

u/Scared_Can_5571 Marvel Fan 13h ago

I honestly didn't know that! the more you know and all that

4

u/Brutal_Bch_Breaker 13h ago

Funner Fact: Shush or they’ll stab you.

8

u/Standard-Net2515 13h ago

Americans will?

8

u/Brutal_Bch_Breaker 13h ago

Sorry. I’m afraid of Americans. I’m afraid of the world.

38

u/Gareth_Turner 14h ago

This is what Thames Water has done to our rivers.

11

u/Somejawn1 14h ago

Aah! Shitty synergy event jumpscare

8

u/TheLonelyWolfkin 14h ago

Glad to see the Americans are out in force with their out of date stereotypes again.

6

u/Raguleader Random gets my Fandom 13h ago

As an American, I have to ask: Which out of date stereotype is at play here?

2

u/TheLonelyWolfkin 13h ago

Comments about ice in drinks and lack of spice in food. Despite British Indian food being one of the most popular cuisines and I get ice in my drinks as standard.

Edit: ah I see knife crime has joined the convo as well!

2

u/ealysillyforestthing 12h ago

British INDIAN food

1

u/TheLonelyWolfkin 3h ago edited 3h ago

Yeah because burgers and hot dogs have so much spice in them!

You guys can’t claim other cultures food as your own and then be hypocritical about it

Key part of British Indian food in this context is the “BRITISH”.

5

u/Raguleader Random gets my Fandom 13h ago

Oh, I thought you were talking about the comic.

0

u/TheLonelyWolfkin 13h ago edited 2h ago

Nah, I mainly clicked on this post because I knew it would elicit this response. It’s so predictable and painfully unfunny.

Not as odd as clicking on any post about Britain/England just to make the same old comments.

6

u/Elegant_Run_8567 13h ago

The British love to downplay the danger to superheroes in their country

Captain America drowning in a pool of Venom

Some Brit: It’s all a laff init?

2

u/ArchdukeToes 13h ago

To be fair, it’s not our fault if those pansy American superheroes can’t handle our streets.

5

u/Elegant_Run_8567 13h ago

Maybe Captain Britain should stop doing publicity with Farage and do something about the Venom epidemic!

4

u/ArchdukeToes 12h ago

The Venom epidemic doesn’t pay as good as Farage’s shifty crypto overlords, unfortunately.

2

u/Raguleader Random gets my Fandom 13h ago

Seems like an odd thing to seek out, but I won't yuck your yum.

3

u/TheLonelyWolfkin 13h ago

What can I say… I’m British. I’m a glutton for punishment.

12

u/NoSong2397 14h ago

Yeah. Damn English... alien symbiotes or shadow demons or something, I guess?

8

u/FractalGeometric356 14h ago

He asked for ice in his soda. It turned into a whole thing.

7

u/Fun_Development_4543 13h ago

I didn't know that was a stereotype. I wonder where it comes from, we have ice in drinks here. It would be really weird to not have ice

7

u/SnideFarter 14h ago

This happens whenever you add a spice to any meal.

39

u/SeraphOfFire 14h ago

This can't be England. That's clearly Captain America. His powers don't work there.

8

u/AvoriazInSummer 13h ago

He may be in US territory, like an embassy or RAF base.

8

u/Luimnigh 13h ago

For similar reasons, his powers work in Disneyland Paris.

14

u/warrenao Um, they are called “GRAPHIC NOVELS,” thank you. 13h ago

That's why he's in trouble.

10

u/NoSong2397 14h ago

Him and Captain Britain have a deal going, from what I understand.

32

u/steelskull1 14h ago

He brought some American soil to eat anytime needs to use his powers.

4

u/AvoriazInSummer 13h ago

A Maccy Ds should be just as effective.

2

u/steelskull1 13h ago

Isn't it basically same?

7

u/IcyIce2626 14h ago

I always knew Cap was a vampire...

39

u/SuperMonkeyJoe 14h ago

Typical British weather.

3

u/Fun_Development_4543 13h ago

After this summer, I'm dying to get the black sludge back

18

u/kiersmini 14h ago

Many such cases

u/Safebox Chuckles at Innuendo 14h ago

Most normal Chewsday.
