Buy It For America
That adorkable superhero known as Major Spoilers has for us the two variant covers to the forthcoming Captain America: White. The limited series reteams writer Jeph Loeb with artist Tim Sale for another "color" book from the House of Ideas. Following Daredevil: Yellow, Hulk: Gray and Spider-Man: Blue, this new outing with Captain America will have him busting Nazi heads alongside pre-Russia craziness Bucky during World War II.
I am anxiously awaiting this book as I have been since Sale moved to DC a few years ago. Loeb never seems to be better than when working with his co-conspirator and not just at Marvel. Batman: The Long Halloween and Dark Victory are both exemplary tales.
Hit the jump for the official word from Marvel and to check out the two covers to Captain America: White #0 for some pretty, pretty pictures. While the wrap-around is great in an actiony-comic book way, the swastika image is much more powerful. It elicits a strong feeling that isn't always associated with Cap anymore. We tend to forget that he's seen humanity at its worst.
Issue #0 hits July 9th.
