While I feel like this arc was a bit rushed, I was certainly happy with the payoff. Read Full Review
Carnero delivers some beautifully detailed art throughout the issue. The action is thrilling on every page and I love the intensity of the fights. Read Full Review
It's mostly all fight scene, but it's one heck of a fun fight scene, so rock on Sentinel of Liberty. Read Full Review
Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #6 is a single fight scene that doesn't further the story or reveals any information relevant to this arc. It's a filler issue in every sense of the word. Read Full Review
It is NEARLY as operatic as it wants to be. There are some little glitches in the storytelling; a few goofy moves in the action scenes. Even if it doesn't climb as high as its creators hope, it still gets awfully goddamned high. This is a great comic.
I have to single out the artist as the prizewinner here. The action panels are good-to-great. But the emotional impact of what's happening is also in the artist's hands, and on that front, they ascend into GOAT territory.
(I have no "Bucky would never do that" complaints. That's a step down the dark road to Comic Book Guy-hood.)
The rating is basically for Carnero's art. The story doesnt go much further but there are some emotional bits.
This was a great issue, setting up an interesting new status quo for Bucky. This book was dominated by wonderfully illustrated 2-page spread fight scenes, with some great interactions between Cap and Bucky interspersed.
Great, so great! Carnero's still incredible as always, what an incredible fight scene, a lot of strong moments, and this final revelation looks good for the plot.
As a script and story doesn't make much sense from Bucky's angle. Carnero does the heavy lifting with her art. It has to carry the story and emotions to move the story forward. Without the beautiful art this would have been average.
The plot was kind of whack, and so was the usual captain talk to bucky. The real selling point was the long action scene. It was wonderfully illustrated.
The twist makes no sense as of now. Why would Bucky join the Outer Circle all of a sudden and leave Steve to his fate? He wants revenge? Why not investigate alongside Steve?
