Well, first off this is the first comic series that I have gotten into so my opinions may be different from someone who has been reading comics for years, so forgive me if I get excited about twists that have happened thousands of times before in other comics.
So this begins in japan and apparently, Captain America has been assumed dead for over a year. It starts off with a group named Strikeforce Ukiyoe, and they have the belief that Japan has been corrupted by westernization. The villain Lady Deathstrike is extremely boring and pretty standard. She never felt like a real threat and she doesn't get enough development. This first issue I feel isn't good at showing how good this series gets. I think the ending is pretty good and the action and art is something that is very consistent throughout the series. I never really remember this issue that often and it is very forgettable, average at best. more
