Cap Versus Cap: Sam And Steve Battle For The Right To Lead In ‘Captain America- Cold War’
by Tony Thornley
Captain America: Cold War has been building since the dual Cap titles launched a little less than a year ago. Now, the conflict is on the horizon and it may change both Captains America forever.
Colin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing, Carmen Carnero, Tochi Onyebuchi and R.B. Silva have guided the two Captains on different paths for the last few months, through battle and betrayal. Now the longtime partners collide as Cold War begins in April. From Marvel:
The storyline will pay off various plot threads that made both titles must-reads the past year including the rise of the mysterious Outer Circle and their shocking connection to Steve Rogers; the surprising return of Ian Rogers, AKA Nomad; Sam Wilson’s intense conflict with Wakanda and White Wolf; and Bucky’s bold new mission as the New Revolution. Things will come to a head when Bucky and White Wolf join forces and kidnap Ian Rogers in a twisted plan to unleash Dimension Z. Will Steve and Sam be able to agree on the hard choices needed to set things right?
Check out details on May’s parts 3 and 4 of the story below and be sure to pick up more of Cold War very soon.
In Captain America: Sentinel Of Liberty #12, Kelly and Lanzing will be joined by guest artist Alina Erofeeva as they bring Black Widow into the action! When Bucky Barnes and White Wolf team up to strike at the heart of the Outer Circle conspiracy, Steve Rogers, Sam Wilson and their allies are caught in the crossfire! As the heroes fight their way across the war-torn Alaskan tundra to rescue Ian Rogers, Black Widow attempts to stop Bucky’s descent into villainy – at any cost!
In Captain America: Symbol Of Truth #13, White Wolf’s latest trap has left the Captains America barely standing, and Sam Wilson is hesitant to push the team toward certain death without a backup plan. But Steve Rogers will stop at nothing to rescue his son — even if it means taking down one of his closest friends!
Part one of Captain America: Cold War is available on April 5, with the story continuing twice a month from there.
