Timeslip: Red Skull
In Timeslip, a hot artist of today is taken back to 1962 to get handed an assignment by Stan Lee. So what happens when 1995's poster sensation Vince Evans gets handed this assignement?
Well, as long as we're revamping characters, I would have tied the Red Skull to the filthy commies. He's the right color for it. But the new backstory keeps him a Nazi (somehow, a more universal evil, forever deserving of Cap's boot up its ass) and makes it a lot more personal.
Well, you know, I don't think you can beat Jack Kirby's design for me, green unitard and all, so leather fetishist Red Skull doesn't quite do it for me. Or maybe I just have a hard time picturing just how the shield could have caused that kind of damage. Any doctors in the house?
