Something to realize about nobody acknowledging Sam as Cap at Avengerscon is that there was nobody there dressed as Hawkeye (Clint Barton), nor any merchandise for him. He's been an Avenger since the beginning, and there's nothing. Must be a branding issue.
Hey anon, I don’t want to be rude because I’m sure your intentions weren’t bad but here’s what I’ve gotta say about this:
1. It’s not just avengerscon. It’s the fact that Sam has yet to be acknowledged as Cap in universe since the end of TFATWS period. We know it was televised, we know people know. Steve is constantly brought up in some way, shape, or form, despite being gone. Sam has not. I mean, half of the stuff in Avengers con was Captain America themed and Sam Wilson currently is wearing the title of Captain America. It doesn’t even make sense why he’s not showing up.
Anyways, Clint was mentioned in Kamala’s video at the beginning of the episode. He was shown in her recreation of fighting Thanos. Thats already 1 time he showed up in Ms Marvel while Sam has not. Also it was shown in his own show that Clint was featured in Rogers The Musical and that he is a well known avenger despite not being as popular as the rest. He still gets his fame.
2. I don’t think it’s a “Branding problem”. I highly doubt Groot, Rocket, Vision, Mantis, and Drax are marketing themselves out to American citizens. I mean literally Mantis???? Makes an appearance but not Sam, come on. Real slim chance there. Also highly doubt the Dora Milaje is either but there were people dressed up as members of it in the scene. Gamora is fucking dead and was before Thanos even got to earth yet people are dressed as her. We can’t blame lack of inclusion for Sam on “in universe branding issues”. Let’s be real, it’s a Disney and fan issue. It’s the big guys ignoring him right now so they don’t piss off all the racist fans who wanted Bucky to be handed the shield or who are begging for Steve to come back. Don’t believe that’s true? Then explain why I saw all kinds of people on Facebook and Twitter arguing about it just today alone.
3. Also:
Two things I found of Clint. So yeah. Respectfully, you are wrong here.
