Captain America getting a new look

Sam Humphries takes over as the sole writer of Marvel's The Ultimates title with issue 13, and he does so with a bang. Captain America, who has been absent from the title and the Ultimate Universe since the death of the Peter Parker Ultimate Spider-Man last year, returns and with a new uniform designed by series artist Billy Tan.

"It’s my design based on Sam's descriptions -- WWII roots, Iraq War-style chest armor, cargo pants, boots... a very military look in Cap's way. He probably has to hand paint the 'A' on the helmet himself since he doesn't have the luxury of having S.H.I.E.L.D. painting him a perfect one."
