Civil War II is far from over. No one can predict who or if there will really be a winner. But the epilogue is being written.
After the first Civil War, there was The Confession, two talks between Tony Stark and Steve Rogers. One after Captain America’s surrender. The other after Cap’s death with just Tony.
In the spirit of The Confession, Marvel announced Civil War II: The Oath by Nick Spencer and Rod Reis. In the epilogue to the current superhero showdown, Captain Marvel and Iron Man turn to the friend they both trust most, Captain America.
But this isn’t the Steve Rogers they’ve known and trusted. It’s Steve Rogers, Hydra operative.
Nick Spencer is the writer responsible for the controversial change in Rogers and he will craft this important chapter following this summer’s big event.
What is the Oath?
“Some big time, heavy-hitter characters may find themselves in very different places as a result of Civil War II. And for one of them, that might involve taking an oath of some kind—one that will change not just their own life, but countless others as well.” Spencer told Marvel.com.
With a Hydra sleeper agent influencing them, how will Tony Stark and Carol Danvers change once Civil War II is over?
So far, Tony is MIA from this fall’s Marvel Now initiative with newcomer Riri Williams and changed villain Doctor Doom headlining the Iron Man titles.
Fans may remember The Initiative followed the first Civil War with Tony Stark in charge of the Avengers, the Fifty State Initiative (registered hero teams in every state) and S.H.I.E.L.D.
