Maybe he's the Sentry.
If Captain America has been an agent of Hydra since childhood, how did he fight WWII on the side of the Allies? • The secret, untold story is revealed here!
Rated T+
Baron Zemo steals the show as Spencer shows he's going to be a main player moving forward. If you dig good character work you gotta read this. Read Full Review
On the way to "Secret Empire," Captain America: Steve Rogers marches on to the beat of a drum which sounded foreign when it debuted last year, but has incrementally become attuned to something that might not always be outstanding, but is always interesting. Read Full Review
Hopefully, we are one step closer to Cap enacting his plan that was foreshadowed in the Oath, but I feel like this story line is dragging on. Issue 13 of Captain America: Steve Rogers continues Hydra Cap's train wreck of a storyline. I was not a huge fan of this issue, as I feel like Cap spends a lot of his time wallowing over killing his friend's father, after reminding him in the previous issue that they were family. This issue reminded me a lot of Hamlet, in the sense that Cap continues to struggle with a decision. Read Full Review
While it does have its high points, Captain America: Steve Rogers #13 is guilty of forcing Secret Empire down our throats. Read Full Review
This particular chapter sheds more light on the revised history of Cap/Zemo and how the latter figures into the rapid build-up to Secret Empire. But at this point it's regrettable that said build-up has to be so relentless and fast-paced. Read Full Review
Great Character work. My favorite Marvel title. I will miss Hydra Cap.
Great work by Spencer on Zemo here. Art was OK but Saiz is missed. Who is Bob??
I liked the focus on Zemo here...his scenes questioning Bob in the apartment are well done. The art here is a good fill in for Jesus Saiz...Ted Brandt and Ro Stein give this book a nice look. Relentlessly, we march towards "Secret Empire," but this issue of the series was one of the better ones.
SCORE: 7.1
Zemo takes center stage as he assembles a huge Masters of Evil roster. For a title that seems like it's racing to squeeze in all the necessary preamble to Secret Empire, CA:SR sure likes to take its time. Zemo's recruitment drive occupies a full seven pages with minimal dialogue. The hurry is more evident in the plotting. Though Nick Spencer is trying to preserve ambiguity around a lot of key points, I think he's also accidentally obfuscating some parts by shortchanging them on page time.
