It's weird to see that Steve was recruited by Hydra before becoming Cap America.

R.I.P. sigil magic

>>87600885
How are these two even within spitting distance of each other, isn't there a war on?

>>87600931
There's also the fact Helmut shouldn't even have been born yet going on

>implying this isn't the second/third Baron Zemo who inherited when he was still a child with help from modern Zemo who was sent back in time in Born Better

We haven't even begun to deal with fucked-up continuity yet.

Cosmic Cube fuckery

So is this actually rewritten history or just altered memories?

Changing history changes a lot of stories especially the ones where Cap fights Red Skull. Changed memories and Zemo should be completely confused about their supposed past.

Localized reality warping. It's rewritten history that only applies to Steve. Think of it like our Steve getting swapped with an alt-universe Steve where everything played out exactly the same except with this backstory and with "actually secretly HYDRA all along" in the background.

To Steve, all this really happened and it's not just memories. It's just that the marvel universe itself didn't change to accommodate Steve's new life. Cosmic Cube fuckery is weird like that.

Then it might as well be his memories being rewritten (completely, no like something that would have any telepath bring them back) or 616 Cap being switched a HYDRA universe Cap, because all that sounds like unnecessary complicated.

Considering that Zemo was in Pleasant Hill and Selvig explicitely said in the Standoff prologue that something was off with him and gave Kobik trouble, couldn't it be that she adjusted Zemo's past, too?

Wait, I just remembered that Zemo's narration in Standoff began with him remembering the war. So there is that.

>>87601962
Zemo DID go on a weird ass time traveling caper in "Born Better.", he also briefly grained a bunch of reality warping powers for a period. Either of those might account for that, somehow.

>>87600945
Yeah, wasn't Helmut a kid during WWII? At least in the original continuity. Also Steve treated him like a kid when they first met and he knew Heinrich was his dad.

>>87600957
He says his name is Helmut, there is only one Helmut Zemo and that's modern Zemo.

Until Spencer says otherwise, chalk it up to Kobik fucking shit up.
