Written and illustrated by Karl Kesel with colors by Ben Dimagmaliw, the strip harkens back to the era of classic newspaper adventure strips like "The Phantom" and "Terry and the Pirates," offering readers a daily dose of the patriotic hero's earliest adventures.

Captain America Movie News!
A few spoilers, and a few sour notes, at least for me - but I won't judge it until I see it finished; its only fair, after all. The article is here!
Avengers Relaunch News!
As the picture shows, Captain America - the James Barnes version - will be part of the re-launch of the Avengers come May 2010; at least I assume its the Bucky version as the quote makes no sense for Steve Rogers to use.
Movie News!
With the forthcoming release of the "Wolfman" movie from the same director as "Captain America: The First Avenger", expect more news items as it's that diector's next project. "It's that phase of the production where money doesn't matter: 'Let's put all the greatest stuff up on the wall and see what we can afford. We're going back to the '40s, and then forward to what they're doing with Captain America now." So, its basically Avengers #4 or (more likely) Ultimates #1.

Avengers Cartoon Artwork!
In a Newsarama Chris Yost interview, they put up the first preview artwork i've seen for the forthcoming "Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes", with a roster of Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Ant Man, and Wasp. I wonder if we'll see some Wasperrection between now and the release of the cartoon or film (as its inconceivable that she won't be in the Avengers film as well, I should think).
Store Section Added!
If you've been looking for how to buy the ASSEMBLED and ASSEMBLED 2 volumes, look no further, True Belie... oh wait. I just used to work for Stan, I'm not actually Stan... In any case, the "Captain America Store" is up and running, even if its only for the ASSEMBLED volumes for the moment. Soon, I'll be adding Cap collections and other things available online, and perhaps some of my own collectables that I'm slowly getting rid of... I hate EBAY, and would rather the stuff go to good homes!
