Rated T+
Seeing Odinson and Carter give Cap what for is entertaining stuff, but it doesn't feel like much progressed. Read Full Review
It's harder to justify this issue as a single purchase, but there is a chance that it will play better as part of the eventual trade paperback. Read Full Review
Not anything super bad, but not anything great either. I liked the art and story. It didn't further the plot, but did elaborate on some things. Definitely better than some of the previous tie-in issues.
Stevil ditches the American colors to put on Hydra green and has some frustrating (for him - us readers are delighted) conversations with the Odinson and Sharon. This contemplative script by Nick Spencer does a good job of unpacking Stevil's post-SE #7 state of mind - it's shaky as all hell. Sharon in particular scores some harsh points. This is a solid issue, but it's undeniably a supplement to the event without a plot of its own. Andres Guinaldo's art is a touch disappointing again as well.
More of an aftermath/filler issue for those following the main event. Steve is so far from the old Cap that his love for Sharon (who has been so inconsistently drawn in regards to her age) doesn't fit and so it really can be a peculiar read.
Filler issue, nothing really happens. Very light on content bc of overuse of splash pages. Art is ok.
