It’s not unusual for there to be concern, and controversy, about how distinctly American themes will play to an international audience. Off the top of my head, I recall the to-do over the disappearance of “the American way” from Superman Returns, and more recent rumors about the G.I. Joe movie.
But when did Captain America become Captain Planet?
I’m sure it’s simply an oversight — and a funny one, at that — but in its report on Marvel’s newly announced online comics initiative, The Telegraph of London transforms the Sentinel of Liberty into … Captain Planet. Not just once, but three times — including under an image of Captain America.

The 'A' stands for planet?
I guess dislike of America really is widespread when you can't even call a character by his name.
