During World War II, Steve Rogers volunteered to receive the experimental Super-Soldier Serum. Enhanced to the pinnacle of human physical potential and armed with an unbreakable shield, he became Captain America. After a failed mission left him encased in ice for decades, he was found and revived by the Avengers, later joining their ranks and eventually becoming the team's leader.
It's okay, I guess, Captain America's costume has always looked better with a simple design. The problem with this costume, is too many things going on. If they are going for more of an Ultimates or Avengers movie look, then this would be it.
I think when Cap changed back to his Captain America costume from his Super Soldier suit it 100% made me realize that he needed and update. I'll reserve judgment until I see more of it in action.
They're saying that each artist will have a different take on the suit, so in three different comics he'll most likely have three different versions, it kind of sounds dumb, I don't mind changing his suit, but they should pick a design (or simplify it) that all artists can do. Example, JRjr in Cap's comic will still have his wings, but in Avengers and Uncanny Avengers he won't. Really? And that's not even mentioning any guest appearences in any other comic. Just stick with one design through out all his appearences.
I always liked the wing tips being painted onto the helmet/mask because I always thought in a fight the tips would chip off. Other than that I say lose some of the ultimate inspired parts and just alter the wing-tips.
Friggin chin strap. I know he is the super soldier, but don't make him look like a G.I. that decided red white and blue were practical camouflage colors.
