Flash forward to today and Captain America is suddenly doing some terrible things: pushing an ally out of a plane and, on the last page, proclaiming, “Hail Hydra.”The countdown begins now as to how long Captain America will remain evil. Over at Marvel, the first issue of Steve Rogers: Captain America sheds new light on the hero’s past that has a great effect on his present. This issue, written by Nick Spencer and drawn by Jesus Saiz, reveals that Rogers’s mother was recruited by Hydra, one of Marvel’s terrorist groups. This comes after the company published, in 2012, Before Watchmen, a series of prequels to the seminal work. Rebirth is written by Geoff Johns and drawn by a cadre of the DC’s top artists (Phil Jimenez and Ivan Reis among them).
