CAPTAIN AMERICA: SYMBOL OF TRUTH #12

The current era of Captain America is about to explode! Last year, both Steve Rogers and Sam Wilson picked up the shield, embarking on separate journeys in the pages of Collin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing, and Carmen Carnero’s CAPTAIN AMERICA: SENTINEL OF LIBERTY and Tochi Onyebuchi and R.B. Silva’s CAPTAIN AMERICA: SYMBOL OF TRUTH.

Now, the two Captains will reunite for CAPTAIN AMERICA: COLD WAR, a crossover event that will make them question everything they believe in…and each other.
