What's the holdup on a new ongoing for Captain America?

[classicgmer]

So I don't even really read the ongoing but I just realized Ta-Nehisi Coates's run ended in July and there's been no mention of a new volume or much speculation of a new creative team I wonder if this was planned and the multiple mini series involving Cap (United States of Captain America, Captain America/Iron Man) are being used as a stopgap of sorts.



Also does anyone have any preferences for the creative team for the next volume?

[Hypestyle]

I'd like to see Christopher Priest as the writer, to finally have a chance to write the "main" Captain America book. He's already written a recent US Agent mini, and roughly 20 years ago he wrote a Cap & Falcon series that ended up ending before two years were up.

There’s a Captain America/Iron Man miniseries now .

To the utmost, I agree! Priest would be an excellent choice (IMHO):

Said this in another thread, I just don’t want ‘woke’ Steve. I’m not a fan of the replacing him plot point anymore either. I want spies, intrigue, SHIELD maybe, but a moratorium on the Red Skull. You can toss in a Thor adventure, keep tension between Steve and Stark, that spills into the Avengers, take on some real world issues like trafficking, drug smuggling, Sam, Bucky, Sharon and/or Natasha as the supporting cast as needed. What about the Commission that took his shield away under Gruenwald, how about investigating a new twist on that? Gimme the Serpents, Diamondback, even Songbird, Zemo? I read in another forum about Cap/ The Avengers/FF as advocates for mutants. Run with that. Have Norman Osborn lurking somewhere. Steve’s rogues gallery is large, I only brought up Osborn as someone non conventional. Steve could unearth this JANUS cabal, no? The cynic in me says that Marvel hasn’t gotten a PC enough pitch yet and are throwing this current dreck out there for the time being. I wouldn’t mind Priest, or go older with a guy like Dan Jurgens, who can write and draw a book. I’m not asking for a Brubaker redux or even Kurt Busiek, but I’m looking for some adventure for my favorite character. Delve deeper into the Winter Soldier and the past, but in present day. That one just came to me, But keep the Skull away for a spell please…my .02..

I wonder if Marvel's internally debating whether to give the next Cap ongoing to Sam.

[Spiderfan001]

I think they're waiting to see what to do whether it's a Steve ongoing, a Cap one or pushing Carter into 616

FalconCap already had a book, didn't he?

It's not like Marvel can't do both. I mean, they had BuckyCap and Steve Rogers Super Soldier at the same time, IIRC.

I hope they consider doing both or have another book with all the Americas with Falcon as the lead.

[Digifiend]

Yeah, they should either do two Cap books or have Steve and Sam co-star, both in their Captain America costumes. Either way, keep Sam as a Cap. If Champions comes back, keep Joaquin Torres on the team as Falcon, or if Sam has his own book, use Joaquin there. Sam as Falcon doesn't sell.

I don't think we need Carter in 616.

I don't think the Cap line needs an ensemble or can hold two books, but I might be thinking too cynically on this.

Probably need to see how much damage will be inflicted by the Avengers/X-Men storyline in the spring.

That said, I would be shocked if there isn’t al least a mini in the future
