And what does the choices he makes in the past mean for his future? Experience the untold story of Captain America’s first encounter with Doctor Doom!
Zdarsky spoke to Newsarama in a recent interview. “I have the same feelings as when I first started Daredevil. Each issue felt incredibly special. Our first arc may be set in the past, but it will reveal some huge things that will affect the books that will come.”
