Mugen: Isaiah Bradley

Never let it be said that there are no new MUGEN characters being released! On top of that we have new quality Mugen Characters. ZVitor and Cormano's take on a character that means a lot to me from Marvel Comics. Isaiah is an unsung forgotten Hero of the United States of the Marvel Universe. While Steve Rogers volunteered to become Captain America, Isaiah was experimented upon along with his whole unit and he was the only survivor. The story is chronicled in 2003's Truth: Red, White, and Black. It makes sens and although the super soldier serium that gave Captain America his powers is fictional, our government did experiments on African-Americans like the Nazis did on the Jews in real life. I once read an interview by the series writer. He pointed out that given the culture of the time it did not make sense that the government would test on white people (reference the Tuskegee Syphilis experiments). So Isaiah did manage to gain many of the benefits of the super soldier serum but with an unfortunate side effect: mental deterioration. The version of the serum Isaiah got isn't the same as Rogers got.



Now back to the mugenization of the character. It is plainly awesome and fun to play. It has a flavor of being Captain America without being Captain America. Isaiah's arsenal makes the game play very different. I love the animation. This is one character you should get if you have not downloaded it already!
