Baron Zemo takes leadership of a new team with an evil Captain America fashioned after the villain in an exclusive first look at Heroes Reborn: Siege Society #1.

Writer Cody Ziglar, artist Paco Medina and colorist Pete Pantazis are the creative team on Heroes Reborn: Siege Society, as the one-shot picks up after the civil war that split up the Squadron Supreme. Nighthawk forms his own Squadron team in Europe, which draws the attention of Baron Zemo. In response, Zemo assembles the Heroes Reborn versions of Sabretooth, Black Widow, Ant-Man and Hawkeye. Though not credited in the official solicit for the first issue, the Scarlet Witch/Quicksilver amalgamation is also present in the preview pages, along with a Captain Zemo with a variation of the Russian cycle on his shield.

What's notable in the first look at Heroes Reborn: Siege Society #1 is the changes familiar characters take on. For example, Captain Zemo may be a new take on U.S. Agent with the darker costume, and Black Widow has pale skin as if she were a vampire. Sabretooth and Hawkeye don't look too drastically different than what fans are accustomed to in the main Marvel Universe, and Ant-Man has a costume similar to his rival Black Ant.

Heroes Reborn is an eight-issue weekly miniseries that takes on the name of the popular event series from the '90s. This updated Heroes Reborn replaces the Avengers with the Squadron Supreme, with Blade as the lone hero who remembers the forgotten timeline. A series of Heroes Reborn one-shots will flesh out the backstory for this new universe before Earth's Mightiest Heroes reassemble against the Squadron Supreme for Heroes Return #1.

Heroes Reborn: Siege Society #1 goes on sale in May from Marvel Comics.
