Jeffery Mace in the comics was basically a Captain America fanboy who took on the mantle of The Patriot after WW2.

Actually, he's was The Patriot during WWII (also in the comics at the time). He was one of the guys who was retconned into becoming Captain America after WW2. That's how Marvel got around the whole Cap was frozen during the war but inexplicably still had a comic book going in the 50's punching Red Commie Bastards in the face. This Jeffery Mace pretty much just shares a name with the original character.

Also, Uncle Eli did not look all that disturbed by the Darkhold. He looked excited. I suspect he's got a few more secrets.

It might also just be something the book does. It might enthrall you to make you want to use it once you read it.

Did Simmons imply that Jeffrey Mace's heroic record was fraudulent or something?

Radio!

Look at that post.

I think the implication was only that his actions at the bombing in Vienna were staged, but that doesn't necessarily imply he wasn't genuinely a hero before that. Seems more likely that if it were staged "they" would have chosen someone who already had a heroic war record of some kind.

Yeah, I think that's probably what's going on. All the best lies are at least half true.

Yeah I read it as the Vienna heroism being trumped up to bolster his public status as a part of the SHIELD takeover.

What a great episode. I can't decide if my favorite part was May being totally over literally dying, Daisy kicking Watchdog rear end by herself, or Robbie destroying ghosts with ease. The Darkhold having an ambigram that says Darkhold is just the cheesy comics icing on the cake.

Still liked in the last episode that she's pissed that Radcliffe was the guy who ended up killing her.

The "Blue-skinned killers in Wyoming" line makes me wonder if there's going to be another Kree episode in the future, or maybe the Kree come to Earth in an upcoming movie.

I'm glad we're down to just one lame ghost. They're really doing their best to keep the over-arching plot opaque this season. It's not clear who the main bad guys are gonna be or what the main conflict will be, other than probably revolving around some conflict between Inhumans and magic powered humans.

notthegoatseguy posted:

It could also be that he was already an Inhuman with super strength and invulnerability at that point so he was never in danger during the bombing and his actions weren't as heroic as has been made out.

But everyone already knows he is Inhuman and therefore would not have been in danger because he told them.
