50/50 Cover by ALEX ROSS
Where were you when Captain America died? It’s the anniversary of the day Steve Rogers was killed, a day of reflection and mourning in the Marvel U…a time to look back on the things Steve did and what he stood for… or is this issue actually the beginning of the most wicked plot twist since issue 25? Yeah, actually it’s both. Plus, contributions from Cap creators past and present, including a very special essay by Joe Simon, a classic story from Cap’s Golden Age, a full gallery of 600 Cap covers, and more anniversary shenanigans than you can shake a shield at!
104 PGS./New and Reprints/Rated T+ …$4.99

Marvel announces that CA #600 will be released on Monday, June 15, two days earlier than their other weekly releases

Will Smith denies rumors that he had been offered the role of Captain America for the forthcoming movie

And now we get this image (right), posted by Truth artist Kyle Baker on his website, related to what he calls “an upcoming Marvel gig.”

What does all of this add up to?

…

Beats me.

But you gotta admit, it’s pretty exciting.
