STANDOFF Epilogue!
• With Steve Rogers back as Cap, Sam struggles to find his place. Can the country handle two Captain Americas?
Rated T
Sam Wilson's journey to becoming Captain America is a much longer, more complex process than he thought it would be. Putting on a costume and carrying a shield isn't enough. Sam is finding out that acceptance takes time, both for the public and himself; and if he truly wants to live up to the legend and reputation embodied in the title Captain America, he has to start by believing in himself and standing by the tough decisions he is forced to make. Captain America: Sam Wilson #9 is a comic weighed down – in a good way – by a moral and ethical dilemma and is well worth your time and money. Read Full Review
Overall, this would be a fantastic issue if not for the art. Angel Unzueta's digital approach is simply too stiff, too rubbery - and the muddy colors don't do this lively script any favors either. But if you can look past the artistic flaws, this is a promising story direction for a book that's suddenly in a pivotal "do or die" scenario with Steve Rogers back. Read Full Review
Cover makes this issue look lame it couldnt be more wrong...Sams insecurities as Captain America continue to be a key driver for this Series and while that may sound boring this title is one of the most interesting Captain America titles I have read. Political, of course. Thats what Captain America should be, Spencer puts him in today's America and it works. Spencer has stories that feel like something you would want to go back and read again, great dialogue and his pacing is constantly engaging to boot hes writing TWO books at once interweaving them better than you could ask for so far anyways. The Art on this issue is great in brings you the textures of a painting at time I love the way Steve Rogers looks you can feel the hydra. Figures w more
This is a pretty solid wrap up to the Standoff story. Steve Rogers has gotten a lot of attention in the past few issues of this series and Sam Wilson has taken a back seat. Wilson is back in the fron for this issue that focuses on the fallout of the Standoff story but it also gives a more in depth look into what's going on with Sam now that Steve Rogers has returned to his peak form.
The aftermath issue. I totally feel for Sam. Are you truly Capt. America even though Steve insists that you are????
The art doesnt do the story any favors, and Spencer wears his politics on his sleeves, and even as someone that agrees with him on that front, I find it annoying.
