What happens when Captain America remembers his closest friends betrayed him?
Following Original Sin #1 last week – the sins of Marvel heroes are coming back to haunt them.
This week in Avengers #29 writer Jonathan Hickman follows up on a huge story element from last year.
Back in New Avengers Doctor Strange and Tony Stark turned on Captain America – wiped his memory and threw him out of the Illuminati.
Marvel’s secret cabal of heroes were willing to save our universe…no matter the cost.
Now in Avengers #29 Captain America remembers.
“Since the first issue of AVENGERS and the very beginning of NEW AVENGERS, it’s the thing that’s been sitting in the background, the thing you knew would come to a head,” Hickman told Marvel.com.
“Captain America remembering. That the Illuminati reformed and kicked him out because he didn’t have his blood up enough. He remembers.”
In Original Sin #1 by Jason Aaron – the Watcher was murdered on the moon. The killer (or killers) took the ancient alien’s eyes and secrets.
“When the events of Original Sin happen, that’s the catalyst that unlocks all of that stuff in his head. One night he goes to sleep not remembering. The next day he wakes up and he does. That fundamentally changes the world that he lives in, what this larger Avengers World is all about. This machine that he and Tony built. It colors all of that in a completely new light. It’ll color Captain America moving forward for the next year.”
How will Captain America react to Iron Man and Dr. Strange’s betrayal?
Find out in Avengers #29 this Wednesday.
