There used to be an article here. What I thought was an interesting juxtaposition. However too many other people saw something else. I initially amended

I can honestly say I've fallen hard for Laurie with this cover, all thanks to the majestic stylings of Bruce Timm.     Captain America & Black Widow #639  by Francesco Francavilla This is my favorite cover of the week, hands down As if it wasn't action-packed enough with the Lizard tearing up the joint, the addition of Doc[...]

Well, you know what I mean. In Captain America, we get a Green Skull… well, we have a Red Hulk, why not? Actually snark aside, while I like the man a lot, I've never really got on with Rick Remender's writing Even while the likes of X-Force and Fear Agent was being praised, it left me[...]

Here's the Hastings variant edition of Captain America #1 for Marvel NOW! Of course this does behoove me to point out that Hastings were signees supporting internet censorship… Also, probably not a good place for Rivera to add his name… also, is Captain America is fighting graft, or is Graft the name of the inker or colourist…? Here are[...]

Here's a quick follow-up to our earlier story, which announced that Frank Grillo has been cast as Crossbones for Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier The source article over at Variety also revealed that Cobie Smulders will return to reprise her role as S.H.I.E.L.D agent Maria Hill. The How I Met Your Mother star also appeared[...]

And naturally they've turned up on eBay. But one of them, Captain America #1 from the Marvel relaunch was still a month away from publication. They were on sale at the show from $100-$200 and are getting around $50–$90 on eBay right now. The question is… can you wait? My answer? Yes. At the retailer breakfast meeting at New York[...]

But is he somehow still possessed by Cyclops? Here are the new pages from Rick Remender and John Cassaday previewed by CBR, with other pages from previous

Seriously, Acura spend all that money on product placement for their new RDX in Avengers, literally in a show room window at which Captain America stops to take a look, with all the futuristic display devices, and what happens? It gets cut out in the final edit. Then when it is included as a deleted scene,[...]

Ah, spoiler warnings are pointless now. In last week's Ultimates #15, Captain America became President of what is left of the Unites States of America It was a. rather odd move, and I'm still not sure it stands up politically., and smacks of voter fraud But then, that's what I thought about George W Bush's election[...]

Are spoilers still a problem at this point? Best to stay safe. And Marvel hasn't exactly drawn attention to the contents with their cover for issue 15

So how does Captain America get to do it by accident in today's Ultimates? Without campaigning, without debates, without, it seems, an Electoral College? Here's how. An emergency election then, A limited two week campaign Multiple candidates rather than two party mandated choices Increasing the odds that anything could happen, in a country where everything has just[...]

'Tis the season: Bleeding Cool has been warning you that something big was going to happen in the Ultimate universe. Something media friendly, something

This election is intended to unite them, and leads into th United We Stand storyline that follows the curent Divided We Fall arc. But what are Captain America's politics? While the standard Marvel Universe Cap is a bit of a liberal lefty, if a muscular neocon version (think Tony Blair wuth more muscles and better teeth),[...]

It's the closest thing to DMZ Marvel have ever got to. And in the next issue of Ultimate Comics: The Ultimates out tomorrow, parallelling the current American political climate, Captain America, or rather the Ultimate Comics version of him, a strong conservative right winger from the nineteen forties, amidst a power vacuum, becomes President Of The[...]

This is the cover to Captain America #2, as published by Comic Book Resources Many people will look to the fact that he is unmasked Others to his long hair as doing a bit of a Thor impersonation. But many will ignore that child he's clutching the hand of Which would be a mistake. I understand the[...]

A couple of months ago we knew that Ed Brubaker was leaving Captain America, and now he's leaving Winter Soldier, being replaced by Jason Latour And what will he be working on at Marvel instead? Nothing He tweeted; To end all speculation: Cap 19 and Winter Soldier 14 are my last Marvel books for now But[...]

The new Now Announcements today were Si Spurrier and Tan Eng Huat on X-Men Legacy, and Rick Remender and John Romita Jr on Captain America  What's next for Marvel Now? Rich seems to have deciphered some elaborate Da Vinci Code-like set of clues which tells him exactly where, when, and what will be revealed, so[...]

9am ET. That's when it's expected that iFanboy and MTV Geek will confirm Rick Remender and John Romita Jr on the newly relaunched Captain America, and Si Spurrier and Tan Eng Huat on a new X-book, for Marvel Now. I'll go and put a kettle on. And then… well… what will be left for Marvel to announce next[...]

So how did we do? In June, Bleeding Cool ran a checklist of rumours we'd heard about Marvel NOW! Including that it would be called Marvel NOW! Let's see

We informed you of this event at previous juncture A few more ticks for the checklist…. In a deal with iFanboy, Marvel have announced that Captain America will relaunch from Rick[...]

You may see a lot of newly designed characters however… it also looks as if it may start in November, if the Captain America timeline is anything to go by. Amyway, this is a checklist so far of what we've heard Some will be right Some will be wrong. Hopefully we'll be finding out in the next[...]

Anyway, that will be a thing. And, as part of the Grand Marvel Switcheroo, after news that Ed Brubaker will be leaving Captain America with issue 19, yes, we appear to have Rick Remender and John Romita Jr on the comic… Spinning out of Heroes Con in Charlotte, comes the rumour that Marvel will be launching[...]

Here are three of the many highlights… On leaving Cap (but staying on Winter Soldier) SPURGEON: Now, you told me that you're wrapping up on Captain America. BRUBAKER: Yeah By the time this interview comes out, I will have written my last issue. SPURGEON: Congratulations And that's… eight years on Cap? BRUBAKER: A little less than eight years[...]
