A darn good Captain America yarn. The risk with Cap is always that he can go into preachy jingoist mode and here that temptation is resisted. This is a tougher meaner Captain America, not quite the amoral head smasher of the Ultimates, but a Cap who still struggles with internal guilt. The only part of this that I don't care for is the villain. The Red Skull is, and always will be, the quintessential Cap enemy, but the inclusion of a mysterious assassin here feels too much like retread territory. While I appreciate Cap's continuing feelings of guilt over lost friends, there are times I just wanna yell "GET SOME FREAKIN THERAPY!" What might be the best part of the book comes at the end. The section on the degeneration of Nomad is magnificent. While not as strong artistically, it pulls no punches and leaves you feeling as lost and insane as Jack Monroe himselfRead full review
Great product brand new and a great read!
