1872 Month: Cap-IM Universe Medley Fest
Banner created by starksnack, with thanks!
It's the 15th, so welcome to the next month of Cap-IM's Universe Medley fest!
You can create as many works as you like across as many different mediums as you like! This is a no-pressure, low commitment challenge to encourage you to try something new, stretch your creativity, and check out other versions of Steve and Tony.
For our full fest guidelines, including our annual schedule, please click here.
Coming up, 1872 Month!
Four short issues make up this terrific comic, which was part of the Marvel-wide Battleworld event in 2015. No stress about back-reading, though—1872 works easily as a standalone run.
Set in the Wild West, 1872 gave us the honourable Sheriff Rogers and drunkard Blacksmith Tony Stark. It has everything a Western fan could hope for! A boom town oppressed by a corrupt mayor, shootouts, drunken serenades for the Sheriff, Tony goin' West to escape his past, tragedy and vengeance. A word of warning: Steven Rogers dies in issue #2. But read on to see his death avenged and Iron Man make his first appearance in Timely.
We adore 1872 for its angst potential and the special Steve and Tony moments. It's the perfect setting for vast desert vistas; dusty streets and wooden houses; saloons, horses and trains; missing friends and haunting pasts; tabula rasa; and makin' time with the Sheriff.
Take this chance to create a fix-it or wallow in anguish (or both 😉). Explore post-run scenarios, delve into the pre-1872 story of Steve and Tony, and most of all, have fun with this setting. Ride on, cowboy!
