Captain America & Bucky has been rebranded as Captain America & Hawkeye, Marvel Comics has announced.
Cullen Bunn will shoulder writing duties on the renamed title, which will inherit its predecessor's numbering, with artwork provided by Alessandro Vitti.
"The Cap and Bucky series was going to go through this change in stories that didn't focus on Cap and Bucky in the past and shake things up a bit," said Bunn.
"They contacted me to see if I'd be interested in writing this series. Hawkeye was one of the characters that I love the most, so I jumped all over that."
Captain America & Hawkeye will be rebranded once again after four issues as Hawkeye makes way for another companion. Some of the team-ups will be one-shots, others more lengthy arcs, CBR reports.
"There are definitely characters that will surprise readers if I get to do it," Bunn added. "There's going to be some new characters introduced in this book that will have an impact on the arc they appear in and on Captain America going forward."
Captain America & Hawkeye kicks off in April.
