NEW YORK – Captain America, the Marvel Comics superhero, returns for the five-part series “Captain America Reborn,” on July 1.
But Marvel won’t disclose how he rises from the dead. Executive editor Tom Brevoort teased that the character has been “on a Vonnegut-esque metaphysical journey,” including some soul-searching about his place in the world.
Brevoort said that “while he seems to be dead, his mind and his spirit” are active elsewhere.
Captain America, the alter ego of Steve Rogers, was apparently shot and killed two years ago on the steps of a courthouse in Manhattan.
Rogers’ sidekick Bucky Barnes took his place, continuing the series. Brevoort says Barnes will embark on a quest to revive Rogers.
