Captain America Reborn From His Own Groin!

Captain America Reborn

I don’t know what it is about Captain America Reborn, but the covers leave much to be desired. First, we had Joe Q’s cover that depicted Steve dropping a very patriotic number two. Now we have this variant cover by John Cassaday with anime speed lines drawing your eye right into his crotch where a shirtless Steve seems to be growing from. LOOK AT MAH CROTCH! LOOK AT MAH CROTCH!

I mean, it’s well illustrated. John Cassaday is one of my very favorite comic book artists. He’s part of the reason I’m trying to refine my style. But I think the cover editor should have steered Cassaday in a different direction.

Alright people, so the comic is called Reborn. But I think this illustration deserves a more fitting title. So to celebrate America’s birthday tomorrow, it’s time to play the Captain America caption game!

    “Spandex Goldmine”. Spindly boy Rogers looks glam rock Jon Rhys Myers :)

    P.S. After 20 some years, I still get a chuckle out of seeing Jack “Butch Juice” Guice’s name on a cover.

    heh, reminds me of a Neil Gaiman short story about a guy who had some funky voodoo done to him and wound up with a literal monkey on his back - but attached. Over time it gradually absorbed him until he was a withered husk hanging from it’s crotch.. =)

    least i think it was Gaiman, could’ve been George R R Martin
