News broke today that Steve Rogers, the original Captain America, who was presumed dead after the events of 2007’s Captain America #25, will be returning to the Marvel Universe. The story of Rogers’s return begins in Captain America #600 (the series went from #25 to #600 in just two years by adding the numbers of all previous Cap series to this most recent one), which is out today in comic shops everywhere.

I’m not really happy with this. The book was so great and intriguing and didn’t really need Steve Rogers back.

Do you think it’ll definitely be worse? I’m a little surprised they’re pulling the trigger on this so soon myself. Even though I haven’t been reading Cap—I haven’t been reading anything, in an attempt to save money—I’ve heard nothing but good things about Bucky being in the costume.
