Customer review of: The Death of Captain America, Vol. 1 Customer Rating: Summary: Way to spoil the ending on the cover! Comment: Brubaker brings us to the inevitable turning point of his Captain America arc. Captain America might be dead, but the story is is just getting rolling. More Action..More Adventure..More Skull Faced Imortal Body Snatching Nazis..and 100% more dying Captain Americas than have ever been seen before! Customer Rating: Summary: Captivating Even Without Steve Rogers Comment: I'm a guy who waits for the collected editions of my favorite comic books, so my knowledge of the death of Steve Rogers arrived long before I read the actual volume in which it occurred. And you want to know something? It didn't lessen the impact one iota. This is because Ed Brubaker's Captain America is masterful. This is not a title looking to shock you in one-and-done scenarios, this is a title where each issue builds off the prior and the author clearly has an epic plot in mind. The story progresses organically and logically. Collecting issues #25-30, Steve Rogers dies in the first installment and then his supporting characters take center stage. Brubaker gives us a level of richness and complexity with Tony Stark, Sharon Carter, the Falcon, Nick Fury, the Black Widow, and Bucky Barnes rarely seen in comic books. The fact he keeps Captain America just as intriguing and captivating without Captain America is proof enough as to why this man won the Eisner award. Now we all know who the current Captain America is, and this volume, as well as the preceding issues of this series, really sets up the events leading to Barnes donning the Captain America mask. It makes total sense and it didn't feel at all forced. In fact, I'd like to briefly congratulate Brubaker for reinserting Barnes into the Marvel Universe in a seamless, rational, and consistent manner. Unlike another once-thought-dead partner, Barnes has been handled with care and intelligence. Furthermore, Steve Epting's art is the perfect compliment to Brubaker's realism. While cinematic in execution, Epting delivers characters and action that are believable yet extraordinary. His angles and layouts please the eye while strengthening the overall story. Brubaker's Captain America has been a delightful and unpredictable joy from the get-go, and I look forward to seeing where he takes us next! ~Scott William Foley, author of The Imagination's Provocation: Volume I: A Collection of Short Stories Customer Rating: Summary: the most important comic of the year Comment: the death of captain america, the hero from the 40's. the quintessential american. 'Nuff said. Customer Rating: Summary: A comic death done right Comment: In comics, heroes are killed and resurrected so often it has become something of a joke. It's very hard for writers to give a death proper weight, but with "Death of the Dream" Ed Brubaker has become a comics god. He has given us hope for the future of graphic storytelling. As publicized as issue #25 was, it is astonishing the impact with which it lands. The issues that follow it are also superb, and they exist as proof that a series can actually thrive without it's title character. If there is a problem with this item specifically, it's that it is only half a story arc. Why MARVEL packages it this way is beyond me, but what is here is too good to miss. With this and "Daredevil" as evidence, I declare Brubaker the best-suited writer for every human hero at the "House of Ideas." Now, that I've finished gushing praise through your monitor, buy this book. Customer Rating: Summary: The Death of Cap Storyline starts with a Bang , Literally. Comment: Captain America is dead. His book is still running. His book is still selling well. His book is still AMAZING, if not even better than what it was before. The first volume of the Death of Captain America collects issues 25-30 and its an amazing collection. This is a deep story, not simply just the gimmick many ppl thought it would be, when they first read about Cap dying. After Captain America dies, the book follows up on the supporting cast that Brubaker has set up from previous issues. Bucky, Sharon and the Falcon get a lot of screen time, as does Tony Stark, Shield, the Skull and his minions. All parts of this are equally as intriguing, Sharon's drama, Bucky's search for revenge and the Red Skull's plan unfolding slowly, which adds to the intrigue of what it. This storyline is BIG and Brubaker knows it, all the subplots that have been unfolding over the first 25 issues of the book are picked up on and the death of cap feels organic, and intensely tragic, as do the events that come unfold after it. Whenever you think, things aren't working out for the heroes, don't worry, they'll eventually get worst The art by Epting and Perkins are also perfect fits for Brubaker's writing, sometimes its hard to tell apart who is who, because they are both outstanding. This book is an absolute Gem, do yourself a favour and pick it up if you want a great tale about Superheroes, Espionage and Tragedy.
