Marvel's two Captain America heroes will reunite for a new "Cold War" crossover event launching in 2023.
Marvel announced a new crossover event, "Cold War," which will bring Steve Rogers and Sam Wilson back together for a new mission. "The secret origin of Steve’s shield, the revenge of White Wolf and Crossbones, and the return of Nomad—but which one?" Marvel teased of the event. "All roads lead to COLD WAR, a new CAPTAIN AMERICA event kicking off in Spring 2023!"
The road to "Cold War" begins in October with Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #5 and Captain America: Symbol of Truth #6. Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #5 is by writers Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing and artist Carmen Carnero. Both issues also feature a connecting variant cover by Paco Medina. The synopsis for Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #5, which releases Oct. 5, reads, "The Outer Circle’s most recent defector leads Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes to the Outer Circle’s headquarters—and to the answers Steve seeks about the origins of his shield. But Bucky already has his answers and is looking for solutions. Will decades of friendship be enough to outmaneuver an enemy who calls himself the Revolution? The world of Captain America is rocked in this can’t-miss issue that will have ramifications for years to come!"
Captain America: Symbol of Truth #6 releases Oct. 19 and comes from writer Tochi Onyebuchi and artist IG Guara. The synopsis reads, "Still reeling from his conflict with Wakanda, Sam Wilson is called to the international stage once again to protect a visiting politician from the African nation of Mohannda. But the White Wolf has already put the second stage of his plan into motion, with dire consequences for both Sam’s closest friends…and Mohannda. Old allies return and new enemies rise in this thrilling new chapter of Captain America: Symbol of Truth!"
Marvel launched its two ongoing Captain America series in April with Captain America #0. The end of the issue definitively states both Steve and Sam are Captain America and the two then embark on their own solo missions while being accompanied by Bucky Barnes and Joaquin Torres. Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty has seen Steve entangled in a mystery involving the origins of his shield, which may involve aliens, while also encountering a number of familiar foes. Captain America: Symbol of Truth has so far followed Sam as he and Deadpool uncover an undercover Vibranium smuggling scheme out of Wakanda, which seemingly has ties to the White Wolf.
