America is a 2017 comic book series from Marvel Comics. It's written by Gabby Rivera, initially with art by Joe Quinones, Joe Rivera and Paolo Rivera. Color art is initially by José Villarrubia.Set in the shared Marvel Universe, it stars the eponymous America Chavez, a queer Latina superhero who's been on multiple hero teams and saved countless worlds. But now, she's hanging up the cape to focus on her studies at Sotomayor University.Unfortunately, danger is always around the corner. And it seems to be specifically targeting her. To make matters more complicated, America is dealing with a break-up, the evolution of her powers, her own past, her flaws, and a mysterious ally in the form of a woman called the Madrimar. Luckily for her, past team mates and old friends are there to help her figure things out. | |

Creator Cameo: The first issue opens with a page of Vox Pops offering very positive views on America herself. One interviewee is clearly drawn as the comic's writer, Gabby Rivera, and states that "America is our future." | |

Gratuitous Spanish | |
America (2017) (Comic Book) / int_16178c64 | comment |
Gratuitous Spanish: Granted, America is latina, but the Spanish in the book is actually pretty bad at times, with serious grammar or spelling errors. | |

Plot Hole | |
America (2017) (Comic Book) / int_6331ba26 | comment |
Plot Hole: The crux of La Legion's plight is that they had no way of communicating their peaceful wishes with the natives of Fuertonas, as they didn't speak the same language. The same issue that revealed this earlier showed them possessing Madrimar and communicating in plain English through her. So they have no way to communicate with others, except for their way of communicating with others. | |

Hard Light | |
America (2017) (Comic Book) / int_6dcfdea6 | comment |
Hard Light: Sotomayor University has a hard light hologram system (provided by Holotech Ed. Inc.) that's used for simulations in lessons. Professor Douglas warns America that any mishaps within a simulation - such as being hit by a poison arrow or falling into a frozen screen - will have some real consequences, but students will then be teleported to the nurses's office. | |

Stern Teacher: Professor Douglas is critical of America, and says that she only cares about the effort America puts out in class. But she just wants America to prove that she takes her classes seriously, and is shown to care deeply for America outside of class. | |

America (2017) (Comic Book) / int_909f41de | comment |
Forgot About Her Powers: America breaks up with Lisa in the first issue because she doesn't want to do a long distance relationship. However, she has portals, which would not make this an issue. America has to fight Magdalena in order to appease the villains, because they are using Magdalena's father as a hostage. They have to fight, because they can't rescue her dad when they don't even know where he is, and they could kill him long before they could ever find him. Which would be a legitimate cause for concern, except America recently gained and mastered the ability to find missing people through thought and feelings, and can time travel with no problem. | |

Hypocrite: The eleventh issue has David preach for the removal of security cameras in the school, because the villains were able to hack them and use them against the students. He says that he knew this when he hacked into the security cameras, which he then used to help save the school. He decries cameras as a tool for evil, despite praising them in the same breath as a tool for good. Somehow, the fact that they helped the students doesn't matter in the slightest to his argument. | |

Not Evil, Just Misunderstood | |
America (2017) (Comic Book) / int_f48d0f54 | comment |
Not Evil, Just Misunderstood: Every non-white antagonist is only acting in a negative manner because of circumstances — the Guerillas only kidnapped Lisa to get America's attention and have her save Malixta, and Magdalena only kidnapped America because Arcade was using her father as leverage. This even extends to La Legion, whose presence on Fuertona was not meant to be malicious, and simply lacked the ability to communicate their goals to the natives. | |
