It is absolutely from the Cap Steranko issues.

When I saw the last page with the Skull/Cap I thought "that's cool.' Then I thought, "Oh God, are we going to have to go through two years of this before Steve actually comes back?"
I really need this to be resolved within Reborn.

Hm the end oddly reminded me of the ending of Ultima IX. A blond goody good uber hero and a red skullish evil being merged into one. Sounds familiar? ;)

I hope in the end Steve Rogers is free of him. It would suck if we have this "evil self" always handy as a sort of deus ex machine all the way in Cap stories now.

Yeah, it would sound a lot like Captain America #115, the first time the Skull switched minds with Cap.


I swear, everyone wants to say that stuff is ripped out of video games these days, no one wants to look past 1996 for any kind of reference.

I hope in the end Steve Rogers is free of him. It would suck if we have this "evil self" always handy as a sort of deus ex machine all the way in Cap stories now.

I'm not sure how sharing a body with your worst enemy is a deus ex machina. Although I'm pretty sure that's not happening anyway, but not sure you're using the term right.

I would enjoy that immensely. It would be like the Lukin/Skull situation in the earlier issues. Steve trying to do his job with a devil constantly heckling him on his shoulder.
