I hope they don't bring Steve back it still seems too soon.....
I'm hoping it's something more along the lines of Osborn's own version of Captain America for his Dark Avengers, seeing as Bucky Cap is with the underground, new Avengers, it's possible Osborn is setting someone like his son, Harry who just joined his dad in Spidey #595, as a possible evil version of Cap.
I'd much prefer that than Cap's return, although the massive media push from Marvel would suggest it's something like Cap being back....
.....oh well at least it's written by Brubaker so I'm sure it'll be cool.....
My guess is that something about the super soldier serum will be revealed or simply something about the past of Steve. Think about it: If the issue is about Cap's past deeds the best way to write a story that revises the past is precisely by dropping hints during the short flashbacks they get. Maybe the serum will be found and synthetized to make H.A.M.M.E.R. an army of super soldiers, maybe we will find that finding Cap in the artic or having him taking the serum were not random events (maybe Bucky was meant to get the serum from the beginning), maybe it Cap wasn't Steve Rogers from WW2. I think there are several surprises that are possible, I guess that the reborn name is the main suspicion.
I don't truly think they will resurrect Cap, but I don't have any real guesses since the story arc hasn't started.
Well it has to be a fairly big and simple concept, considering the massive amount of press coverage expected for it (supposed to be as big as Civil War's press which was big.) This seems to point towards Cap's return.
However I'm still hoping it's the creation of a new, Dark Avenger's Cap or something like that, or perhaps the 1950's Cap who fought Bucky on Brubaker's run of Cap is joining the Dark Avengers, claiming to be Rogers....
Let him stay dead: I've been reading Captain America since before Bru's run and it's the most interesting it's ever been with Barnes as Captain America, I'd be more than happy with Rogers never coming back. I think it makes the Marvel Universe more realistic, if some what bleaker and in the current climate I think that's almost fitting; a new Captain America that a new generation can relate to.
Well I think comic fans (myself included) tend to be overly skeptical sometimes. Everyone thought it was bad idea to bring Bucky back, but once Brubaker had done it, it was awesome.
Killing off Steve Rogers? No way, how would the title work without him. It worked awesomely.
Who's the new cap? We don't need one. It better not be Bucky, he's a soviet soldier now, it'd be awful. Bucky's the new Cap? That's awesome!
Now, Steve Rogers might be coming back and I'm complaining.......
but you realize that would be made pointless if he came back so soon. Bucky would not be capt anymore and his death and the stuff from it would be for no reason.

I cant wait for Steve to return....i am not a fan of brubakers run nor was i a fan of killing cap......Bucky's reveal as winter soldier was good though...but i dont see the greatness in brubakers run....not at all interested in bucky as cap...i for one would be thrilled to see steve back and it cant be too soon.
Brubaker is the best Cap writer I've ever seen - at least since J.M. DeMatteis in the early 1980's. And it's not just because Bucky's taken the mantle.
