The Press Release:
In the early 90s, Steve Rogers transformed into CAPWOLF in writer Mark Gruenwald and artist Rik Levins’ unforgettable “Man and Wolf” story arc. Now over 30 years later, CAPWOLF is back in his own limited series, CAPWOLF & THE HOWLING COMMMANDOS!
“Capwolf & The Howling Commandos” #1
Written by Stephanie Phillips and drawn by Carlos Magno, this four-issue limited series will tell an all-new story where Steve becomes a terrifying werewolf during an early World War II mission. Luckily, his fiercest allies are by his side–Nick Fury and the Howling Commandos! After years of combat, this elite squad of soldiers thought they’ve seen it all but this might be their wildest adventure yet as the series captures the spirit of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby’s classic wartime storytelling with a modern mystical twist!
When Captain America is transformed into a werewolf on the front lines of World War II, he’ll need the help of the Howling Commandos to take down a band of Nazi cultists who intend to use supernatural forces to turn the tide of battle. But can Cap control the skeptical, jaded Commandos when he can barely control himself?
“This is the kind of story I was dying to tell at Marvel, blending my love of historical fiction with the incredible history of the characters in the Marvel Universe,” Phillips told AiPT. “CapWolf and the Howling Commandos may be a war story, but it also has horror, romance, and a few new characters that we introduce along the way. And just wait until you see Carlos Magno’s incredible artwork on this series…”
Check out an assortment of covers, including a Hidden Gem wraparound piece using Jack Kirby art of the original Howling Commandos and the issue two cover! And be there when the Marvel Universe hears Capwolf’s howl once again this October! For more information, visit Marvel.com.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: This limited series sounds like a lot of spooky monsterized fun and yes I remember when Captain American became “Capwolf” for the very first time since I was a regular reader of the “Captain America” series at the time. I enjoyed that storyline and while I am super curious about this limited series I will very likely be holding back from picking it up since I prefer to have it all in one place when its collected into a single volume. I do admit that this is the perfect Halloween treat for any of the comic collecting younger set in your family circle if you’re not a collector yourself. That’s all I have on this one so do please chime in down below with your thoughts on it all and I will see you next time around. Thanks for reading, please keep safe out there.
