Steve Rogers A Hydra Agent?

Its been almost 4 days since Marvel released its new Captain America:Steve Rogers comic series.That has also been the same amount of time I have been wondering why Marvel had to create an alternate universe for Steve Rogers and his buddies.
I just want to know what poor Stan Lee thinks of this new story!

Ok, so here is the news.In the first issue of the new comic series, Captain America reveals that he had always been a hydra double agent.In fact, even before getting the Super Soldier Serum, Steve Rogers was already recruited by Hydra because his mother was kept hostage. BAM!! your childhood hero is now going to be Shield's most wanted criminal.


This is not the first time Marvel has turned the good guys into Hydra double agents.
[Spoiler Alert - Read at your own risk! Spoiler from Earth's Mightiest Heroes]
Black Widow was portrayed as a double agent when she stole Dr Bruce Banner's blood sample from Shield Lab and gave it to Hydra.Then, she left Shield and joined Hydra.Almost after half a season later, when Hawkeye was about to kill Natasha, it is revealed that Nick Fury had actually ordered Black Widow to act as a double agent in order to extract information from Hydra and he was the only one who knew about it.I think that makes her a triple agent!


Even Captain America had been portrayed as a bad guy before.

Captain America had been kidnapped by The Skrull empire just after The Avenger's fought in Asgard to defeat Loki and his evil forces.Skrulls had the to ability to shape shift just like the Martians of DC (but that is a completely different multiverse). They could even use all the abilities of a person after doing performing some black magic on that person. The Skrulls chose Captain America because he was the most influential superhero in the world. They used his identity to influence the actions of the Avengers when Earth was attacked by The Kree Empire and also influence public opinion.
Many episodes later, we see Captain America locked up in a Skrull prison along with other significant characters like Susan Storm, Shield and Hydra agents.They eventually manage to escape and save the world from both alien empires, but the public still did not fully trust Captain America.




Will this new 'Twist' affect the movies ?
I highly doubt it. The MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) has always been different from the comics.The people who write the movie scripts are completely different from those who write the comics.

I just hope that this twist is negated with another twist just like in Black Widow's case above because Captain America should always be an idol. He was always an icon of justice even before USA took part in WWII, Cap was punching Hitler in the face.
