‘Captain America: Symbol of Truth' begins to weave a variety of threads together as the heroes and villains are finally coming face to face, yet their overall plans still remain somewhat in the dark. This series is able to fantastically create a thrilling slow burning overall storyline because the focus on character moments and depth help propel this slick action-packed fun series along.

Captain America: Symbol of Truth #4 is a chaotic, jumbled mess. Characters are suddenly in one part of the world and then another in the blink of an eye. White Wolf's plan involves kidnapping Mexican citizens without rhyme or reason, faking a terrorist attack in Wakanda without rhyme or reason, and smuggling tons of Vibranium out of Wakanda without rhyme or reason. This story is nonsense. Read Full Review
Weirdly, I liked this series more than the other Cap one (Sentinel of Liberty). Unfortunately, the more it goes and the more this declines and the other gets better. This is never bad, it just feels rushed and sometimes overcrowded: Deadpool, Von Doom and now Black Panther?
The art remains insanely gorgeous, and the 2 styles look great together. The script has a nice action-heavy pace, a welcome change from some of the previous issues. It's cool to finally get some clarity on the baddies' evil scheme. I like it, though I don't think it's complex enough to fully justify how cryptic the hints and foreshadowing leading up to it were.
Some weird questions with this one, like...
why is Crossbones even there?
Again, the art is my favorite thing about this book.
I like the Wakandan red tape presented but I wish there was more.
Like another reviewer said, it feels like this should be more exciting.
Book started off strong, I hope it finds it's footing!
It's enjoyable for most of it. It just lacks stakes. It says it has them but, I don't take it as seriously as they write it.
