Marvel Announces New Captain America on ‘The Colbert Report’
Sam Wilson, formerly the Falcon, will take on the cowl and shield in a new series launching in November, CCO Joe Quesada tells Stephen Colbert.
A day after it was revealed that Marvel Entertainment would be replacing the comic book incarnation of Thor with a new, female version, the publisher followed through on an earlier tease by announcing that Sam Wilson, formerly the superhero known as the Falcon, would be taking over the role of Captain America this October.
The announcement, long-rumored in comic book fandom, was made by Marvel CCO Joe Quesada on Comedy Central’s The Colbert Report on Wednesday night.
