COMICS: Cover Of CAPTAIN AMERICA #2 Reveals A New Look For Steve Rogers

CBR have an exclusive reveal of John Romita Jr.'s cover for Captain America #2 by Rick Remender, and it features Steve Rogers holding a child's hand with his Cap mask off, exposing his new, long, flowing goldi-locks!..

By Mark "RorMachine" Cassidy - 9/12/2012


Says Remender of the new series..

"He's taking down super villains and saving the world and in the midst of all of this, Steve Rogers the person gets lost in the shuffle. He is so exhausted but driven by this sense of duty that when this situation arises and things move forward, he's going to have a very big reaction. I'll deal with the fallout from things like 'Avengers Vs. X-Men' and how it affects Cap in 'Uncanny Avengers' where you're also getting the return of the Red Skull. This is going to be a very different thing and won't really deal with those ramifications so much. He's got his mind on other stuff in this adventure."

.... No!
PantherX - 9/12/2012, 9:15 AM
That's supposed to be a gun?!
GoILL - 9/12/2012, 9:17 AM
Looks like Thor is cosplaying as Cap.
ComfortablyNumb - 9/12/2012, 9:25 AM
Dude, JRJR's art is so junk sometimes.

Meh, John Romita Jr.'s art doesn't do anything for me, I think he could be the next Rob Liefield.
FightAs0ne - 9/12/2012, 9:33 AM
This reminds me of Walking Dead covers with Cap looking like Rick and the kid looking like Carl.
KrazyForKomix - 9/12/2012, 9:33 AM
Where's the wings?
superpooper - 9/12/2012, 9:33 AM
FAIL. DO NOT PASS GO.
MarkJulian - 9/12/2012, 9:34 AM
Captain America clearly isn't on Earth people and based on his hair, he's been gone for a long time.
coolguy - 9/12/2012, 9:34 AM
I normally don't mind jrjr but I don't like that.
Zarog - 9/12/2012, 9:34 AM
What? Are you sure they didn't get Liefeld confused with Jr? Oh, wait, there's feet, so they definitely didn't get them confused. Wow. This cover = steaming pile of velociraptor shit.

Kind of cool to see a different look for a special future version of cap.

Often read about Marvel needing to try something new.

Well, this is something new.
RorMachine - 9/12/2012, 9:36 AM
It's probably just a temporary thing..still, aside from the art, I think it might work as a new look. Hippie-Cap:)
HavocPrime - 9/12/2012, 9:38 AM
I like it, the long hair on Cap is an interesting choice though.
InfiniteMonkey - 9/12/2012, 9:39 AM
Looks like shit. Seriously, he looks beat up.
Temple - 9/12/2012, 9:42 AM
Rick Remender on story should be a day 1 buy for anybody. This is gunna be sweeeet.
ATrueHero1987 - 9/12/2012, 9:42 AM
@thanos83 so if people don't like something or complain, then they're "faggots"?! Grow up.

Anyway, Haven't read a CA comic in a long time(I'll catch up on Ed Brubaker's run sometime next year), but with Rick Remender & JRJR on this title, I will most certainly check this out.

jimpinto24 - 9/12/2012, 9:42 AM
The long hair is ok. I prefere the short hair. Captain America is another comic book series I will suscribe to later this year.
mawilli4 - 9/12/2012, 9:43 AM
i'm guessing post-Apocalyptic future..
Jolt17 - 9/12/2012, 9:43 AM
It's not the hair, but...the head looks off, to me, and that causes his whole appearance to look odd. I like John Romita, Jr., but that clearly isn't his best. If it's done more properly, I believe it would look good. The hair shouldn't be any problem, IMO.
Orangelight - 9/12/2012, 9:44 AM
Romita JR. blows. Retire already...sheesh.
SiriusC - 9/12/2012, 9:44 AM
Yeah, looks way too much like Thor. I'm curious to see how he'll look in the book, but I hate it based on this first look.
SFCamerica - 9/12/2012, 9:45 AM
Blasphemy!!!! Cap would never let his hair grow out like that even if he had to cut it with a shard of glass.
PantherX - 9/12/2012, 9:46 AM
@MarkJulian But he can still keep on top of his beard right?
Sanderman - 9/12/2012, 9:47 AM
dats turrible
Jollem - 9/12/2012, 9:47 AM
i've always liked jrjr.'s style. the man is a legend

steve, why so fabulous?
UVLantern - 9/12/2012, 9:48 AM
Garbage
SkunkApe1 - 9/12/2012, 9:48 AM
Looks like he's teaming up with Hit Girl.
OtakuPapi - 9/12/2012, 9:49 AM
This is Cap in another world!No one read the run down of the relaunch of Cap huh
myparentsaredead - 9/12/2012, 9:50 AM
He only works well with street-level heroes. Ask him to do something on a bigger-scale, and he does downhill. I' reading it for Remander, but Romita gives me no hope.
Jaspion - 9/12/2012, 9:56 AM
I hate Romita Jr's works! ...but well, if he can have a job, maybe I can have one too
Luminescent - 9/12/2012, 9:57 AM
Horrible!
SCURVYDOG619 - 9/12/2012, 9:58 AM
Did Cap end up in Killraven's future? That gun he's holding seems to suggest that...
Jaspion - 9/12/2012, 10:02 AM
And seriuosly, Cap doesn't look like Thor in this one, he looks like a [frick]ing Neanderthal
Gigacrusher45 - 9/12/2012, 10:03 AM
He needs a hair cut.
evyllsummer - 9/12/2012, 10:03 AM
So Ka-Zar is the new Captain America!? Meh, I prefer the loincloth.

In other news, I can't possibly drop this title HARDER from my pull list. And why is Romita drawing that stupid Fear Itself scar on shield when NO OTHER ARTIST has acknowledged that scar SINCE Fear Itself?
MonroeArtStudio - 9/12/2012, 10:04 AM
He reminds me of Kazar.
BigEars - 9/12/2012, 10:09 AM
Looks gay n Romita's art doesn't help
OrganizedChaos - 9/12/2012, 10:13 AM
looks like he is holding a cardboard gun...seriously the depth perception makes the gun look thin
SteveRogersSon - 9/12/2012, 10:14 AM
Words escape me as I stare at this image.....Seriously...
rbfn04 - 9/12/2012, 10:16 AM
DCnU redux
Fastestmanalive - 9/12/2012, 10:17 AM
W0W!! Just WOW!! I am a huge Cap fan and that looks so freakin bad, uuhhgghh.

Ever since they announced this new series its all been horrible news but I still wanted to give it a chance, but this is just another nail in the coffin for me.

So bad.
Lightsplasher - 9/12/2012, 10:17 AM
Just gonna read Captain America cuz Remender write . Just hopin Marvel will keep Remender for Cap and change Romita Jr by Coipel or someone else
niknik - 9/12/2012, 10:20 AM
Not the look of a man who grew up in the great depression and has the mindset and values of good people from those times.
RorMachine - 9/12/2012, 10:21 AM
By the way, Bleeding Cool say they've heard the kid in the pic is very important and will play a big part in future story lines or something.
SteveRogersSon - 9/12/2012, 10:24 AM
Sorry NikNik..but this Cap appears to have fallen victim to the GEN Y.."we don't need no stinking values because we're entitled" mentality.

This is utter crap...who knows how the story will be...but Cap....We'll miss you.
thetrojan - 9/12/2012, 10:25 AM
first impressions of john romita jr are usually bad,but if you take the time to really look at it ,it becomes really good.

not all the time but most.
SteveRogersSon - 9/12/2012, 10:25 AM
Plus Cap looks like he's ready to deflect a few hockey pucks with the padding on those "gloves."
