Ophidiophobia
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I’m not going to pretend that I didn’t have a fear of snakes when I was young because I definitely did!

WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers So, I know a lot of people are probably going to have questions over Winter Soldier’s inclusion as a Marvel hero but hear me out on this one.
