There’s Judo chops in Krav. Both inside and outside. Learn it in kenpo and WWII combatives. Its pretty common and hurts

Swords, guns, and bottles. Looks like he has a working knowledge of checking round kicks too.

I haven’t read this entire thread yet, but when I got to this one I just had to ask –
“GOT A LI’L CAP’N IN YA’?” Maybe it’s not in a bottle, but on a DVD!

At the risk of sounding like the geek I really am…

Yes, he was captured by Tony Starks (Iron Man) and brought up on treason charges for refusing to reveal his true I.D. to the world during the Marvel Civil War (superheros had to register with the gov). While in custody awaiting trial, he was killed by a Sniper hired by Red Skull.

sshhhhh… Don’t tell anyone that I know this stuff….

Man what is this country coming to :OhMy: Ironic social comentary of Capt. America (freedom) being brought up on treason charges because he was protecting his privacy.

Haven’t read a comic book in years and years, maybe I should start.

Ok I’m done hijacking this thread… sorry.

Comics went from being passing moralistic tales in the 60s and 70s, into full blown ethical examinations in the late 80s and early 90s. Since then, most comics, or graphic novels as a lot of artists like to refer to them as, won’t rate as purely adventure tales any longer. Most readers demand a cetain amount of morality and ethical content to make it worth their read.
And, yes, I am a proud 80s comic book geek. I collected Spider Man, Capt America, The Defenders, X-Men, Alpha Flight, The Avengers, and The Fantastic Four on a religious basis. I had to get my first job at 13 to be able to buy the things. Now, of course, I’m completely convinced that I could be a superhero, but for the terrible lack of some sort of radioactive spider bite or some helpful gamma rays.
There. I said it. I wanted to be a superhero.
How’s that for geek?
HA!

Thanks unstopable, I missed the judo chops day in phase training and never caught it in 6 years of Krav. This dude calls it a “judo chop”
