Do you think Steve Rogers is back already?

Doesn't one of the Captain America specials say something like June or July?

[Captain]

Cap is one of the few Marvel characters I really like, so I'm hoping he does return. I do hope they dont pull out the tired old clone story as a way out though. Have Doc Doom, or some other scientific genius type villain, pull him forward out of the past, thinking they can reprogram him and use him for their own purposes(Actually this sounds like something the far craftier 1970's Red Skull might pull). Have them grab Cap as Zemos rocket explodes perhaps. Then Cap can start fresh. The epitome of 1940's heroism alive and unwashed by the cynicism he may have acquired in the 60's-00's.
His relationship with a suddenly grown "Winter Soldier" Bucky might prove interesting too, and may be a way for a good writer to have Bucky overcome some of his issues with his past. Plus, it would be cool to see how Cap would deal with the fact he is being given a second chance at life, after learning he already lived a life he doesnt know (60's to 00's) and was killed.

I think the new Cap will be the figure we've seen in silhouette a couple of times. The first time when Red Skull was going to use Dr Doom's time tech to fast forward Sharon's baby into a new host for himself. The second time in this past issue.

I think Millar and Hitch's tour of duty on FF was due to end soon anyway...weren't they only signed on for a year?

Yeah, but Stuart Immoman (sp?) is listed as the artist on the latest issue of FF with Millar. As much as a versatile artist as he is, the attempt to ape Hitch's style isn't quite working at least as far as the cover is concerned.
