Is this another clue to Marvel’s Reborn?

Cartoonist Kyle Baker posts a character sketch “for an upcoming Marvel gig” that’s sure to further fan speculation about Captain America #600 and the mysterious Reborn miniseries.

The Golden Age-style illustration depicts Isaiah Bradley, from 2003′s Truth: Red, White & Black, as Captain America. The miniseries, by Baker and writer Robert Morales, followed a regiment of black soldiers who were used as involuntary test subjects in the U.S. government’s super-soldier program.

Some have speculated that July’s Reborn, by Ed Brubaker and Bryan Hitch, won’t feature the return of Steve Rogers as the Sentinel of Liberty, but instead center on characters and concepts from Truth — something virtually guaranteed to deliver Civil War-level media coverage.

Could Baker’s sketch be another clue to Marvel’s big July event, or is it something completely unrelated?

Of course, there’s always a third option: that it’s a red (white and blue) herring.

Should be very interesting, regardless….I love Captain America, and all of the supporting cast…So, anything new with those characters is always a major thing for me!!

I am so excited to see what this does with Captain America…With this and the news of the Monday Cap release, I am so looking forward to the next couple of weeks!!

I’m thinking if he is the subject of Reborn, Marvel could put him on a cover with Barack Obama and they’d sell a BAJILLION COPIES. It’d be genius. Evil genius, but genius none-the-less.
