“I think it’s a really exciting time to be writing Captain America right now,” said writer Ta-Nehisi Coates. “The country is in an interesting place, and I look forward to inhabiting Steve Rogers’ character - this guy who has been a sort of awkward fit for the world, out of time as people say. I hope fans are excited to see something different, and I think there are some really compelling villains old-school Captain America fans and Marvel fans will be familiar with.”
