What They're Saying:

  • Evan Narcisse: “I’ve loved the character of Josiah X ever since he first appeared in The Crew back in 2003. As the son of Isaiah Bradley—cloned in secret experiments—he’s had a complicated legacy thrust upon him. His previous stories showed him struggling to figure out how to find purpose and protect the vulnerable in a world that’s all too ready to exploit him and others on society's margins. When we meet him as the Shadow Soldier in Sam Wilson: Captain America, he’s a hero at the next stage of his evolution, someone who's answered those existential questions with a new codename, new uniform, and specific outlook. He’s a great counterpoint to Sam, in that they’re trying to do the right thing with very different attitudes. We're really excited to bring him back in a way that honors the past and hopefully opens up a promising future.”
  • Taurin Clarke: “When I was approached to do the covers for Sam Wilson: Captain America, I saw a chance to update a few characters. After getting the thumbs up to update Patriot's hair from our amazing editors, the fans on social media immediately started asking about Josiah!”
