Seems like Captain America is everywhere this month.
Marvel Comics is releasing a new Captain America #1 and the second installment of the intriguing All-Winners Squad: Band of Heroes limited series, as well as Captain America and Bucky #620, Captain America and Thor: Avengers! #1 and Captain America Corps #2. Tack on Red Skull #1 (starring Cap's arch nemesis) and AC Comics' tribute to patriotic heroes, and you might as well call this Captain America Month.
With so many "public appearances," you'd almost think he's got a new movie coming out.![]()
