VisionQuest Just Revealed a Connection to the First Captain America Movie... and Possibly Its Real Villain Too
Who is the Synthetic Man in VisionQuest? It turns out that J.I.M., aka the Human Torch, first showed up in Captain America: The First Avenger 15 years ago... and there may be much more to his story than we previously realized.
In the latest episode of VisionQuest titled "Malware," the identity of a long-mysterious android has been unveiled. T'Nia Miller's character, previously referred to as the "Butcherbird Killer," is revealed to be Jocasta, also known as Dr. Josephine Carrington. This revelation comes as fans of the comics recognize the character as the "Bride of Ultron."
While Jocasta's backstory is now known, another android character mentioned in the episode has sparked intrigue and speculation. This character, the OG Human Torch, was first mentioned in Captain America: The First Avenger in 2011 during the Stark Expo scene. The Synthetic Man, as he was known, was first hinted at in the promo art of VisionQuest, and the character's significance has grown as the series progresses.
