Rated T+
While the notion of a clandestine group isnt a novel idea, its Lanzing and Kellys character work that shines brightest here. Steves not descending into a depressed state with the knowledge that he might be a cog in a bigger, nefarious plot, hes rolling with the punches, and dusting himself off. Mix that with Carneros art, and youve got a killer creative team. Read Full Review
Carnero delivers great energy in the art. It beautifully captures the tone of the story and impresses with awesome details and action. Read Full Review
Steve inspiring the good in others even against all odds just feels soCaptain Americain the best way possible, embodying what this character should be about. Read Full Review
Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #5 may be the best issue in the series so far, relatively speaking. Readers get lots of big action and heroics to hold your attention, and Bucky carries the dramatic weight of the issue when he's confronted with the knowledge of the Outer Circle's influence on his life.

The writing, art and general story of Sentinel of Liberty remain pretty amazing, but at only five issues in, we sure are being asked to swallow a lot of giant retcons to make these pretty generic villains actually work. Read Full Review
Sadly, this comic has a bunch of cool ideas but it's playing out too fast to its detriment. Read Full Review
This entire series has been absolutely incredible! I can't say enough about this book. I hope this creative team continues with the next volume after this miniseries is over because I'm loving every panel of this book!!
Have to say this is what a Captain America 🇺🇸 comic is supposed to be from issue 0 to now this has been phenomenal I can't wait to see where this is going to go.
The art is so beautiful, the visual drama so intense, and the storytelling so clear that it handily carries the issue where the writing stumbles. This isn't Kelly & Lanzig's best issue, but it's a wonderful showcase for Carmen Carnero and Nolan Woodward's talents
GREAAT. Loving this series.
This is the fancy splashy action climax. It ends with a cliffhanger rather than a resolution; that helps justify the fast pace and relatively simple plot developments. Steve and Bucky each get a nice, strong character moment. The art's maybe a little less detailed than previous issues, but it's still quite clear and dynamic.
The art alone is worth reading this book. I just feel the story is not as well constructed as it should be.
The narrative is not as tight as it should be and has may plot holes but with Carmen Carnero on art elevates this book to something worth reading.
Not as good as last issue BUT still what a Cap comic should be!
I feel like this series and the other Cap book are going to get dropped soon. While I won't say it's bad or unreadable, it does have some things going for it. I just can't say it feels very compelling. It's just generic cap, with what tries to be a compelling mystery.
Hoping not to jinx, but this series is the best Cap since Brubaker. At minimum it is miles - if not light years - better than Ta-Nehisi Coates' run. Coates' almost made me give up on Cap ... almost.
Also, I love that Kelly and Lanzing are using Bucky's and Steve's relationship so well while developing each character, individually. During Cap's last run Buck was so one-dimensional.
