Or at least a skrull that looks like him. (http://www.newsarama.com/marvelnew/CapAmerica/newdesign.html)

Well, it surely can't be Cap, he has better fashion sense, has to be a Skrull.

It says right on the page that it isn't Steve Rogers.

No..it's a new guy as Capt America apperantly. They're being rather insistant that it's not Steve Rogers.
Either way it's a very shiny costume... he could probably blind his enemies with it. :lol:
It'll probably end up being Bucky.

.... No.. Bucky Barnes aka The Winter Soldier. Former sidekick to Capt America turned into Russian assasin turned into good guy again.... killed Wolverine's wife when she was pregnant....stole the baby from the womb (Daken is one messed up kid). Ya know.. Bucky....

I'm pretty sure he's joking....
I bet it's a skrull called St'ev Ro'Jers.

In another dimension, another time and space, a parallel universe is falling on it's face. When out of the chaos who else could it be but the animal adventures of S.P.A.C.E.!
Cap's into the metal! RAWK! \n/ :evilgrin: \n/
Bucky Barnes? I thought he died... Oh, wait... This is Marvel.
I'd prefer it to be John Walker.

NONONO.. Bucky didn't die...he was cryogenically frozen and brainwashed by the Russians...who unfroze him whenever they needed somebody to kill....he became The Winter Soldier!....But now he's a good guy again and secretly working for Nick Fury. :rolling:
Oh, I know. I was just making a sharp observation on how Marvel likes to bring back the dead with outlandish excuses. At least he wasn't a clone...

Yay! I'm glad to see there's a new Cap. Wait a second though.... if they were going to bring in a new Cap, what was the point of killing Rogers? I mean, they should have just had Rogers survive the shooting.... ya know? Oh well.... I'm just glad Captain America is back! He's cool!:):D
I see he has a lot of black on his costume this time, and he's packing a gun. I guess this Cap will be doing the shooting instead of being the one that gets shot.

To bring him back to beat the crap out of this new, gun-weilding Cap.

Cap's classic shield isn't the only old school element Ross & Co. looked to when designing Cap's new appearance. "I always try and look back in the character's history to something that maybe was a forgotten costume element from a bygone age, maybe one of the earlier costume elements, to see if you could bring that part back," Ross adds, explaining that comic book Cap hasn't been their only resource. "Well, funny enough, there's this awful movie serial made in the '40s with Cap where he had no shield, no wings on his mask, no white sleeves, little tiny gloves, and he carried a gun."

That's Alex Ross for you; always going back to ridiculous time periods to give us something new. He should team up with Frank Miller and do a project called, "The Dark Knight Goes to Hell."

Seems like it should be an interesting story. As for the new look, I can't say I'm a big fan. Alex Ross is a great artist, but something about the contrast from black, to those bright metallic colors looks kinda funky to me. When redesigning Captain America, it just seems like there are so many cool possibilities, but oh well. I do think Alex's idea to bring back iconic things from the past of the character is neat though.

Oh, I'm sure this new suit will stand the test of time. I mean, remember when they changed Spidey's suit?

The solicitations state that this is the "second act" of Cap's Death (the Trade Paperback of "The Chosen" anyway)
Steve's supposed to be resurfacing in 2008, there will also be an Invaders prequel illustrated by Alex Ross where the Steve from the 1940s travels forward in time to meet The Avengers along with The Invaders, this is likely the prequel to his big return during The Skrull comic event.

So his return was inevitable, just like Superman.
Good, because Captain America's death was kinda lame IMO.

In context, it worked, but since CW made a dick out of so many characters, it didnt really do what it should have, it pissed people off, not interest them.
Joe's reign at Marvel has ruined everyone except FF, X-Men, and Hulk. How do they keep themselves sustainable? The writers are allowed to do what they want with the titles. Cap is currently very strong for the same reason.
