I actually had someone ask me why I like Baron Zemo (Thunderbolts Zemo, not the original) so much. Not on this forum but on an IRC channel. Regardless I thought it would be appropriate here to list a limited series that is incredibly recent. So it's very accessible, and tells alot about the past history of the Zemo family. The original Zemo was a great villain, if misguided. And if you take his mind-set and put it into someone (son) who retains such drive but is really not a bad person, you get a conflicted, but totally identifiable character.
So I beg you to read this:
Zemo: Born Better
It's only 4 issues, but it will tell you everything you need to know about Zemo and why you should care. Cuz I swear I got the feeling that he's gonna play a big part in the Marvel U soon. Don't know when really, I just get the feeling they are setting him up that way.
I'm probably wrong about that. But it doesn't change the fact that the above series is awesome and the character is one of the better developed characters in comics right now.
So read it. If it even MILDLY intrigues you I suggest you read the earlier issues of Thunderbolts. Cuz they set the whole basis for the character and make him "real".
Good stuff.
