Esteemed writer and filmmaker J. Michael Straczynski, renowned for his acclaimed runs on “Amazing Spider-Man” and “Thor,” is set to make a triumphant return to Marvel Comics. This time, he will be taking charge of one of the comic giant’s most iconic characters in a thrilling new series of “CAPTAIN AMERICA!” Collaborating with talented artist Jesús Saiz and skillful colorist Matt Hollingsworth, Straczynski has ambitious plans to reshape Captain America’s story, delving into the hero’s early days while sending his future into turmoil.

Before he became Marvel’s star-spangled hero, Steve Rogers was a fighter through and through. Brace yourself for an enthralling journey into never-before-seen moments from Steve’s youth, where a formidable evil seeks to extinguish Cap’s legacy before it even begins. In the present day, Captain America is diligently serving the community, combating crime on a local level in ways only he can. However, everything changes when this existential threat from the past starts making ominous moves towards Steve in the here and now. The saga begins with the recruitment of some of Cap’s deadliest former foes, putting him and those he cares about in grave danger.

As Straczynski and Saiz take on this new project, they also aim to explore a largely uncharted chapter of Steve’s life during the late 1930s. This period, marked by the rise of fascism in Europe threatening to take root in New York City, promises to deepen Captain America’s comic book mythos and shed light on critical events that shaped the hero’s character.

The excitement surrounding the upcoming series peaked when the thrilling “CAPTAIN AMERICA #1” trailer was unveiled at the Marvel: Heroes, Hulks, and Super-Soldiers panel during San Diego Comic-Con. The trailer showcased never-before-seen artwork, including an epic motorcycle battle, exciting team-ups with the Fantastic Four and Spider-Man, and a touching memory of Steve with his mother.

In an exclusive interview with io9, Straczynski shared his vision for the series, stating, “Overall, the goal is to do some really challenging stories, some really fun stories, and get inside Steve’s head to see who he really is in ways that may not have been fully explored before. If folks like what I did with Peter in Amazing Spider-Man, and Thor in, well… Thor, then they should give this a shot, because I’m really swinging for the bleachers in this one!”

Fans and comic enthusiasts alike eagerly anticipate discovering the future that awaits this man out of time. Mark your calendars for September 20 when “CAPTAIN AMERICA #1” hits stands, promising an exhilarating and profound exploration of the iconic hero’s journey.
