Owner's Description

Signed by Ed Brubaker and Steve Epting.

SPOILERS are in this Description.




The beginning of the issue wasts no time in revealing just who exactly the "Steve Rogers" really is - it's the former Captain America of the 1950's AND also the Grand Director. This Cap's partner was Jack Monroe/Nomad (killed much earlier in the series in issue #3, the events described in issue #7).

Sharon, knowing who this is, tries to take him out, but is stopped by Lukin and Faustus. Meanwhile, Bucky Cap and the Falcon follow a lead which leads them into a confrontation with Arnim Zola, what he's up to, we don't know. The battle is pretty sweet and takes up a size portion of the issue.

The issue closes with the Faustus educating the crazy Cap on current events - revealing that the New Cap (Bucky) is the same man who killed Jack Monroe (Crazy Cap's Bucky). To Be Continued . . .


Personal Note

I just have to say how much I loved how everything was brought together in this issue with the return of the 1950's Cap and revealing to him that the new Cap killed his Bucky. When I read that at the end of the issue, I was like, "OHHHH YEAHHH!" The way this series has been playing out, it's just been great.

One thing I must mention is the amount of numerous printing defects on this particular issue that make it extremely difficult to find a true NM+/M book.
