In 1945, the Red Skull stole Hydra from Evil Steve's mentors. Now he returns the favor. The big moment here is Steve giving the Red Skull a mighty "I'm loyal to nothing except the dream" line - except this dream is Hydra triumphant! Geddit!?! After mulling it over, I've decided to call this "stolen gravitas." Nick Spencer is counting on Cap's heritage to cloak his Evil Cap story in a weight that it isn't quite earning on its own. This month's melodrama is accompanied by a few pages of fill-in art that make it very easy to slide my rating down a few points. This issue is especially disappointing when compared to the better-written, better-drawn Uncanny Avengers #22. Shame the recap page tells you to read that comic first.

• Only one man can lead Hydra into a new age of dominance and superiority! The Red Skull believes that he is that man! But Captain America thinks otherwise...
• It's a no-holds-barred final throwdown that you will not believe!
Rated T+
Been trying to figure this minor detail out for a while now, maybe someone will know, but Before Secret Empire started, after Beast did the operation on Red Skull... was there an actually issue of Sin breaking Red Skull out of SHIELD custody or is it just mentioned in Captain America: Steve Rogers #15???
