The brutal assassination plot concocted by the Red Skull to have Captain America's own former lover, Sharon Carter, murder him and deliver his baby into the Skull's hands was only part of the incredibly intricate (and popular) storyline that Ed Brubaker has been weaving for the past five years. Now, two years after Captain America was killed, Brubaker plans to bring him back in Captain America Reborn.
Brubaker told
Marvel.com:
"This is a chance to really explore how things have changed in the years since Steve's death and really delve deep into who Steve Rogers is and why he became Captain America. It's really a (story) with two or three different plotlines that all intertwine, which is a lot of fun and allows us to have (both) in-your-face action and quiet character moments."
Added editor
Tom Brevoort:
"Reborn is a story that spans the Marvel Universe," promises Brevoort. "We'll see the usual cast of Captain America regulars, (including) the Black Widow, Sharon Carter (and) the Falcon, as well as the Vision, Hank Pym, Reed Richards and the Avengers. On the other side of the coin, we'll be dealing with not only the Red Skull, but Norman Osborn, Doctor Doom and a few other surprises as well."
