This is certainly gearing up to be a Captain America story for the ages. Jackson Lanzing, Collin Kelly, Carmen Carnero, and Nolan Woodard and building an epic that could be on par or greater than the last few Captain America runs. The storytelling and mystery is fantastic, the art is amazing and the complete package is well worth the read! Read Full Review
Carnero delivers impressive visuals throughout the issue. The story is character focused and the art reflects the range of emotions of the characters while also delivering some visual thrills as well. Read Full Review
A couple guest appearances make this issue especially fun, building on a very solid foundation of escalation in the ongoing story. Read Full Review
While the comic could have played out the missing days a bit more, they choose to skip the drama and cut right to the resolution. It undercuts a pretty cool idea once again, which has been a flaw of the series since the opening pages. Read Full Review
Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #8 is an odd issue that loosely strings seemingly random events together to create a general approximation of a story. Some of the random events make sense, most do not, and the majority of the issue is simply people standing around talking. Read Full Review
I don't know how but the book doesn't stop being great.
The art looks great, the dialogue sounds even better, and the plot developments are dramatic (Characterization is solid, too, albeit not revolutionary).
I'm rating it shy of greatness only because of this nagging feeling (which might not even be accurate) that it's a little short on content and it zips by a little too fast.
Maybe I'm just regretting that it's over so soon.
