Your First Look At CAPTAIN AMERICA : PATRIOT #3!

Marvel is pleased to present your first look at Captain America: Patriot #3 (of 4), from the critically lauded creative team of writer Karl Kesel and artist Mitch Breitweiser! Jeff Mace is the new Captain America , but if he wants to carry on the legacy of Steve Rogers, he will have to lead the All Winners Squad to victory in their greatest battle yet!

Fans and critics agree – Captain America: Patriot is a hit!

“…thanks to the Mitch Breitweiser's artwork and Karl Kesel's script the book quickly took shape and made it easy to cheer on The Patriot in his quest to live up to his idol Captain America.” – Dan Iverson, IGN.com

“Wow... this was one of the best comics I've read in a while.” – Zach Freeman, ComicVine.com

“Captain America : Patriot #1 really succeeds because both the art and the writing match the 1940s setting. Karl Kesel’s dialogue crackles with the energy of an old screwball comedy, with a good ear for old-timey slang that never sounds affected, and playfully alliterative newspaper headlines.” – George Chimples, MajorSpoilers.com

When Bucky is fatally wounded, will a traitor stand revealed in their ranks? And, with no one to trust, could a mysterious new costumed heroine hold the answers? Find out the answers to these questions and more in Captain America : Patriot #3 (of 4), on sale this October!

“The response for Scarlet has been nothing short of shocking” explained Brian Michael Bendis. “Alex and I want to give a gigantic thank you to all of the readers and retailers who have made it their personal mission to support this book.”
