The inaccurate retelling of your series

Rogers: The Musical features in the Hawkeye trailer, an MCU reference to Cap’s time as a USO spokesman but also maybe to the time in the 80s that Marvel actually tried to put on a Captain America musical.

I remember the casting ad for this in comics at the time and it seemed like a strange idea then. Reading that plot description with Steve suffering a crisis of confidence and Sharon running for President and targeted for assassination by a major cosmetics company doesn’t make it seem any less so.

What would the book or stage version of your series look like, if the characters became famous enough in the setting to get one and weren’t consulted?

See also the Detective Comics story where someone in Gotham publishes a Batman comic.
