Steve Rogers is back!

The Star-Spangled Avenger returns with a new series, Captain America: Steve Rogers, set to debut this spring from the creative team of Nick Spencer and Jesus Saiz.

Rogers will once again don the red, white and blue, but will do so with a new mission statement…and a new shield.

“It’s an exciting time to be writing Captain America, for sure– this year is the character’s 75th Anniversary, not to mention the upcoming release of Marvel’s CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR. And with CIVIL WAR II approaching in the Marvel Universe, it felt like the perfect time to restore Steve Rogers to his former self,” says series writer Nick Spencer.

It’s been a rocky road for the Sentinel of Liberty, as he was drained of the Super Soldier Serum that made him the hero he was. Gone were his strength, speed and endurance, and Rogers passed the mantle of Captain America to his closest ally, Sam Wilson, the high-flying Falcon.

“Captain America: Steve Rogers and Captain America: Sam Wilson will act as great counter-points to one another,” continues Spencer. “If you’re digging the topical, ripped-from-the-headlines approach we’re taking in Sam’s book, we’ve got plenty more of that to come. And if you’re up for a more timeless take, with Captain America facing off against Hydra and his classic rogues gallery, Steve’s book will be just the thing for you.”
