Hello Pulp Friends,

I am so happy to finally announce my next project at MARVEL: CAPTAIN AMERICA and BLACK WIDOW, a 5 issue mini written by a dear friend of mine and a heck of talented writer, Mr Cullen Bunn :)

The mini will debut this September with a double shipping (#636 and #637) and will mix the classic Super Hero action with noir-thriller (as seen on the above cover) and weird-science, sci-fi themes (as you can see below). I am working on it right now and trust me: it's gonna be tons of FUN :)

Beautiful! I despaired when CAPTAIN AMERICA AND BUCKY was replaced by CAPTAIN AMERICA AND HAWKEYE (soon to become CAPTAIN AMERICA AND IRON MAN), but I take it this is the same book, which seems to be a series of sequentially-numbered team-up miniseries.
