Marvel Announces Brubaker & McNiven's Captain America #1

New Ongoing Series Begins In July Featuring Marvel’s First Avenger

Unsurprised and underwhelmed.  
 
Plus, numbering resets make me a sad panda. What was the point (other than $) of going to #600 awhile back?

“I gave myself a few challenges for this new #1 - I wanted to do the perfect Cap comic for anyone who walks out of the Cap movie and wants to know what's next, but it also had to build on everything I've done on the book beforehand, too, and feel like the natural next step,” explained Brubaker.  

AWESOME!!! 

noooooooooooooooooooooo i want Buckkkkkkky

So.. What about Bucky and Steve's position as the New Nick Fury of 616... All thrown out of the window?

What was the point of the last 3 years of Cap run? Soooooooo dissapointed.

Meh

We all knew this was going to happen. On the one hand I'm glad to see Steve back as Cap as he is Captain America to me. On the other hand this is Marvel basically screwing Bucky over in favour of Steve in order to appeal to the wider masses. At least give Bucky his own series. Given the hype the Cap movie will generate you can probably afford it. Still should be interesting. Brubaker knows how to handle Steve let's hope he can do it again.

Completely expected.
 
I'm sure it'll be a great book but it is a shame as well.

The Neil Adams variant is so ass it don't make no sense.You would think for a book as epic as this Djurdjevic would be doing a variant..or at least Leinil Yu,Maybe Ross.Neil Adams? Honestly WTF...

Brubaker has written Bucky like a wimp in the last few Captain America books anyways; it's almost like he's trying to show us that Steve Rogers was and always will be the better Captain America. Before you respond to me, though, for real go read those issues and look at it from this perspective... Bucky is always getting beat up and every single time who comes to the rescue, either Falcon, Black Widow or Steve... every... single... time...  Brubaker has shown us that Bucky sucks as Cap, maybe he can only be Winter Soldier.
 
Btw, I don't sway either way, I personally like both Bucky and Steve as Captain America, so I really have no preference either way.  It's just something I've noticed lately.

" @spiderbat87:  They may not out of fear of it looking like they copied DC. But Bucky definitely deserves his own book. And am I right in thinking this comes about not only as a result of the Captain America movie but also after the Trial of Captain America, Bucky is in prison and Steve is filling Bucky's shoes. Actually now I think about it Steve should join the main avengers team and Bucky should lead the Secret Avengers! He'd be better suited to the covert missions the Secret Avengers have to face. Again that's just my perspective but he should keep the Cap suit for that and wield an energy shield or something as well as his additional weaponry "

cool cover

" @spiderbat87:  Oh yes in the 1st avengers arc. I remember now. Yeah that could be what happens to Bucky. Although the future they visited was only one of many. There are many futures in the Marvel universe so it is unclear as to what the future will be. In any case I hope they give Bucky a good send off "

Brubaker writing and McNiven on art?  I could care less about Bucky not being Cap and them starting over with issue 1...the number on the cover is such a trivial thing to care about....this book is going to be good

Am I the only one who liked the new Cap featured in the .1 issue, albeit briefly? I mean, damn, Steve training him to be Cap while Bucky's gone (just in case) would make for a more interesting story than this predictable (marketable) stuff...

Also: who bets that to get out of the Russian jail, Bucky will once again become Winter Soldier? Who freaking bets?

" @War Killer: I'm pissed at this move as well, but one must remember that comics are a business, and the movies are bound to generate new readers..... who usually go for the old stuff first and then read to the current if they have half a brain, but I digress... "

 Seriously. I bet he'll have to bribe his way out with some kind of assassin job as Winter Soldier again. :P "

don't like the relaunch, but love the team

Honestly it's not even about Steve becoming Cap again that's got me mad, it's the fact that when I started reading Captain America it was right when Bucky became Cap and every since he's become my favorite character and now it feels as if all those stories that I loved reading and that made me love the character are being thrown aside all because of a two hour movie.  What's annoying though is that we don't even know what Marvel's going to do with Bucky, I feel as if they're just going to throw him into Steve's supporting cast now and he'll just slowly fade away in Steve's shadow, I mean if Marvel would just say that they're still planning big things for Bucky then I'd shut up right now about the whole thing, but the fact that they haven't even mentioned him is what bothers me the most.

THANK YOU!!!! ^_^

I dont understand why they couldn't make steves on-going book like Steve Rogers: Super-Solder and just keep Bucky as Captain America

   In other words, "We were afraid that people wouldn't buy our comic if Steve wasn't Cap after they saw the film, so instead we threw away years of character growth and amazing storylines with Bucky because of a two hour movie." Yeah Marvel, thanks for the big slap in the face to ever Bucky fan on earth.....jerks -___- "

I don't see why they try to make comics to match the movies.I mean I'm sure that gets more people to read the books but the movies suck.Marvel is going to make that money anyway.Nobody that is already reading Captain America (which is alot of people) is just going to jump ship because Bucky is Cap when the movie came out.The movie isn't out yet so it's a little early to say this but I don't expect this movie to be good anyway.Most Marvel movies aside from Iron Man 2 and Spider-Man 2 have been complete and utter garbage anyway.

I am so unenthused about this. I loveeeeeeeee the creative team but I HATE the concept.

oh yeah about time he's back in the suit!!!!!....don't get me wrong i loved bucky as cap, in fact it would be cool if he was still cap, but now they're making a captain america and bucky series, so i can't wait to see bucky's new costume change!!!!!

This sucks I agree that this is a slap in the face just for a movie. Me and my friend had this conversation about how we see Steve has a higher position leading the secret avengers and being in charge of shield, but now he is going backwards and what about Bucky? Everything he had to go through and facing all his past mistakes as the winter soldier he redeems himself by being cap and now they are taking that away! Steve going back now is like saying Nick Fury is a super hero, quote from Daywing
