Baron Zemo (the original!) has sent a gang of top-notch henchman to capture Captain America and bring him to Zemo's South American hideout for a close up and personal revenge.

Well, of course, Cap made short work of them...but Zemo doesn't know that yet.

Let's watch as he scans the news...





Dude, do you know how much that monitor cost?!?!

Zemo needs to stop watching the news if he's just going get so riled up (not unlike many people I know today...)!

Ah, well, he'll be dead soon enough. But the lesson remains--if you're a highly-strung super-villain, just cut the cord, and get Hulu or something!!

From Tales Of Suspense #60 (1964)

Here at Slay Monstrobot, we've already dealt with the conundrum of "how can mere glasses actually disguise Superman?" (Seriously, go read that one...)

But in the Marvel Universe, you don't need any gimmicky "subconscious super-hypnosis" or "mysterious properties of Kryptonian plexiglass." Nope, in good old 616, wearing plain old fake glasses is good enough (as long as you're an expert S.H.I.E.L.D. agent).

Captain America and T'Challa are trying to stop Zemo's plan to take over the world. But it turns out they're not alone in that goal...

"Irma Kruhl." Oh, Stan...

Anyway, yup, that's Sharon Carter, a.k.a. Agent 13, undercover. But despite the fact that they've met many times, and that Cap has the hots for her, Steve just doesn't recognize her behind a fake pair of spectacles...


Let's take a break for some Monday morning Kirby destruction!




Woo hoo!!

Anyway, in the ensuing fight...



See? A perfectly cromulent disguise!!

So, if you don't believe that a simple pair of glasses (and a beret) could disguise someone, well, Captain America and Stan Lee and Jack Kirby beg to differ. Your argument is invalid!!

From Captain America #100 (1968)

So, a man has come to deliver supplies to a "remote, unexplored South American jungle."

And whom do we find there?

Oh, Zemo--dominating the natives so they have to carry you around on their shoulders? How cliche!!

What else do you have?

OK, that's more like it!!

You guys know any big group that wants to volunteer to throw themselves on the ground so my feet don't touch the soil? I don't want to get my kicks dirty...
