What they’re saying:

  • Writer J. Michael Stracyznski: “Overall, the goal is to do some really challenging stories, some really fun stories, and get inside Steve’s head to see who he really is in ways that may not have been fully explored before. If folks like what I did with Peter in ‘Amazing Spider-Man,’ and Thor in, well… ‘Thor,’ then they should give this a shot, because I’m really swinging for the bleachers in this one!”
