Betrayed by his friends, persecuted by the media, confounded by pundits at every turn, Sam Wilson struggles as never before to carry the ever-more-weighty mantle of being Captain America!
Rated T
While it may have some moments worthy of a raised eyebrow or two, Captain America: Sam Wilson has become a great jumping-off point to learn more about the experiences of people of color. Which many comic book readers have shown they could benefit from having. Read Full Review
It'll be interesting to see where Spencer takes the conclusion to the Americops storyline and how hell work more recent political turmoil and problems into a Marvel Universe take on the subjects. This series is definitely looking to be the most relevant superhero series for the time were living in. Read Full Review
This really builds on the last issue in a great way. It is interesting to see Sam faced with a very different threat. He is faced with a choice on how to act with evidence against the Americops showing their excessive use of violence. His actions have even greater impact coming from a controversial Captain America. This is a great build to a simple story from the last issue. The art works well. This should lead to a great story arc.
Heavy commentary on Police brutality. I love this fuckin run its doing great things.
After a few issues dealing mostly with the supporting cast, Sam Wilson returns to the forefront here, and the result is a very strong issue. Sam deals with the weight of doing right as Captain America, suppress the truth to avoid turmoil or unveil the corruption of the system. This issue takes on a bit of added weight in the fact that the advice of Steve Rogers may be in the service of H.Y.D.R.A.'s interests. Deep issue, aided also by the return of Daniel Acuna, whose art is superb here.
We are finally out of bull shit one shot deals and into the deep with this issue. A great story with big steaks for Cap. The art of Acuna is on point and the story delivers. I just hope it doesn't fail.
Dealing with real deal issues!!
