Colin Hoult, actor and comedian continues his journey exploring the Marvel Comics Universe by exploring its many characters from A-Z (with many diversions).

Things get rather political as Colin and his pals Dan and Nick discuss the granddaddy of the Marvels: Captain America himself! Plus his long time partner and now MCU's new Cap, the Falcon

Discover their amazing shared history covering such topics as Cap covering his face in clay as a disguise, beating a villain by demonstrating his vaulting abilities and the peculiar guest character who sews Falcon's costume whilst smoking a ciggie.

But will either of them top the list as the best ever Marvel Character?
