Captain America #13

"The Legend of Steve" begins inCaptain America #13 (Coates, Masters, Izaakse) and the tale raises a number of significant questions not only for Steve but for the reader as well. Read Full Review

Jason Masters and Sean Izaakse deliver some fine art in this issue. The story didnt really lend itself to big action or adventure, but hopefully the artists will have more to work with in future issues. Read Full Review

As I've said before, Steve Rogers is at his best when he's his own worst enemy and that might be more apparent than ever. Read Full Review

In hindsight, this seems like an odd point in the story for Steve to learn that he can't always stand behind the law given his recent actions and decisions. Because the law was created by people and people are, by nature, flawed. So the law can't be followed to the letter in every instance. For a moment it felt like Coates handed off writing duties to a different author with a wholly different set of politics. But perhaps this is just Steve taking the first of many steps to representing the United States of America of current, and not the idealized version many people hold in their hearts and minds.

A pretty straight forward issue doesn't do enough to capitalize on the big changes in Cap's life, but is still a quality read. I look forward to more from the villains. Read Full Review

If you can get past the art, the bold and transgressive characterization is worth supporting. 'Murica. Read Full Review

Meanwhile, back in Daughters HQ, Nick Fury and his boys crash in looking for Steve, but they were lured in by the Dryad instead, and she isn't happy! Read Full Review

I actually like what Coates did here. And while the art is a step down from the last two super stars it has its own appeal. This was good but still slow.

Solid issue. For better or worse we have the energy shield back. I also like them using the secret soldier uniform design again. The story is a nice little intro into the Cap status quo after escaping prison. Still doing what he thinks is right, even if the law thinks he's wrong. What I don't like is how idiotic Nick Fury seems. I know this is Nick Fury Jr., but do people really think this Captain America is a phony. Just seemed a little odd to me, also the main art isn't as good as Adam Kubert's was and Yu's was for the past issues.

While not bad this whole run seems to be missing something and sometimes feels pointless.

Meh. I feel like this is going nowhere and I'm wasting my time/money with this. Might drop it if the arc doesn't get better.
