According to the story by Ethan Sacks, what many fans speculated would be happening in the upcoming Captain America: Reborn miniseries by Ed Brubaker and Bryan Hitch will be happening that is, the original Captain America will be coming back to life.
The story of the return of Steve Rogers begins in Captain America #600, on sale today in many comic shops.
"The original Captain America is finally coming back," Marvel Comics editor in chief Joe Quesada told the Daily News. "We've been patiently planning for this moment for 2 1/2 years." Zitat:
One quick publication note - Captain America will go on hiatus after issue #601 (featuring art by Gene Colan), allowing Reborn to run its course for five months. Captain America #602 will then hit stores in November or December. Brevoort im Interview:

Tom Brevoort: We didn't have a specific date or anything, but we knew we'd be getting to this point sooner or later. In our naivety, Ed had originally planned to bring Steve back around issue #30--that didn't quite work out that way, for very positive reasons! Nevertheless, we've been ready to pull the trigger on this phase of the storyline whenever the moment seemed right

NRAMA: Fair enough. Now something that wasn't mentioned in the Daily News story was the fate of Bucky. Personally, I get the impression that Bucky would gladly hand the costume back to Steve, but just in case that's not how things go down - is the Marvel Universe big enough for two Captain Americas?
TB: That's the question, isn't it? But that also assumes that Steve will want the outfit back, or that he'll be in mental and physical shape to take it back by the end of Reborn. Either way, one of the big questions that Bucky's going to have to face, that he's been avoiding all these months while he's been busying himself in trying to carry on for Steve, is where does James Barnes fit in the world of 2009? What kind of a life can he have?
NRAMA: In the eyes of many fans, Ed's done an admirable job at keeping Captain America, the series, free of "intrusions" from the Marvel Universe proper during his run. That said, will Reborn be a fully Cap-centric story, or will we see echoes of Dark Reign, and other larger current elements?
TB: I'm not sure that "intrusion" is the right word--I just think that readers like the stories Ed has been telling. Certainly one of the complaints we've been hearing about, say, Fantastic Four is that there haven't been enough "intrusions" from the rest of the Marvel Universe, and it's had more than Cap. That all aside, Reborn will be a Captain America story, but one that takes place within the larger Marvel Universe. So yes, you'll be seeing Norman Osborn and the Dark Avengers and the Mighty Avengers and Doctor Doom and assorted other characters as the series moves forward.der offizielle Presstext von Marvel:
