Collecting Captain America #1-25, Captain America 65th Anniversary Special and Winter Soldier: Winter Kills. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Captain America Omnibus Since Captain America 25 many peeps went out and read the comic for the first time, (WOW caps dead) thats the reaction many had when it happened. I myself was curious to find out why, so i went out and got the Death of Captain America Vol 1 and Vol 2 to see what all the hype was about. After reading both GN's i was left wanting more i wanted to see what lead to it and what happens next.... Believe me when i say Ed Brubaker went all out on this story from the first issue to Now. Since receiving my ... Read More Rating: - Best Captain America Ever!It's ironic that the best ever incarnation of Captain America (at least in recent memery)also includes the death of Cap himself! Brubaker's writing is nuanced and detailed with every character highly defined, especially Bucky AKA The Winter Soldier. As outlandish as some of the plot twists may seem the writing keeps them somehow grounded in realism. The artwork also supports and creates the mood of the writng and is also very subtle and fantastic. Overall one of the very best comic runs that I've ... Read More Rating: - Absolute Brilliance in a Fantastic Package *WARNING* spoilers immediately ahead This is the first 25 issues of Ed Brubaker and Steve Eptings awe-inspiring run on the new "Captain America"--from the attempted assassination of the Red Skull and reintroduction of "Bucky" Barnes as the Winter Soldier to the highly publicized death of Steve Rogers. I'll say that aside from Mark Millar's Ultimates run, Ed Brubaker writes Cap better than anyone. He nails the character and his supporting cast, and Brubaker's storylines feel ... Read More Rating: - A gorgeous collection for the Best Captain America run out there.Brubaker is the man. I buy everything with his name on it, and this Omnibus that collects the first 25 issues of his run (leading up to the "Death of a Dream" storyline) is brilliant. This edition collects the story arcs: "Out of Time", "The Winter Soldier", "21st Century Blitz", "Red is the Darkest Colour", "Collision Courses" and "The Drums of War (A Civil War Tie-In)" as well as the first part of "The Death of a Dream". As well as the one-shots "Winter Soldier: Winter Kills" (which is ... Read More Rating:  - Oddly, not enough CapThis Omnibus is a huge book covering 25 issues of Captain America, and it is an amazing look into Captain America. I grew up with the 80's version of Cap, who (in my mind) was just a noble guy with a shield. He didn't have a lot of depth, actually he was quite similar to Cyclops of the X-Men. He's the leader, he gives orders, that's about all you got from the character. Enter Brubaker's take on Cap. The first two series involve the Winter Soldier, and highlight the fact that Cap isn't ...
