Captain America #3 veers away from bombastic superheroics, instead leaning into quiet dread, political subtext, and emotional resonance. Doom isnt just a supervillain; he's a symbol of a harsh new era Steve must adapt to. The art and pacing underscore the sensory weight of that emotional journey. With rich landscapes, moody shading, real sense of place, this issue pops with a vivid sense of unease and displacement. Captain America #3 feels cinematic in its tensionan emotional ambush wrapped in gothic architecture and political power plays. Its not just a battle; its a reckoning. If you came for punchy heroics, this may feel slowerbut for those eager to explore Steve Rogers psyche as he faces a world that has moved on, this issue is a rich, slow-burn gem. If you want atmosphere over spectacle and weight over fireworks, this is worth it. Read Full Review

Schiti delivers fantastic art throughout the issue. I love the visual contrasts between Coltons past and the events in the present as well as the visual differences between his and Steves story. Read Full Review

Zdarsky isnt afraid to bring up major, sometimes divisive topics head on. Hes also willing in most cases to let the reader draw their own conclusions. This issue is no different than the first two in that regard. Its a good way to keep the series both compelling and relevant to major issues of the day. All of that said, Captain America #3s greatest strength is the powerful art in the issues final pages. If you havent picked up Captain America yet, do yourself a favor and grab an issue.

The stories in this series continue to be very strong, though I want more focus on the new David Colton character over just another Doctor Doom story. But that might just be me. Read Full Review

Plot Steve Rogers and Marius Wolf (leader of the resistance against Doom in Latveria) are cornered by Doom and his Doombots. Doctor Doom explains to Cap his twisted and tyrannical political worldview, which he admires as a symbol and the potential of his nation. This entire conversation with Doom makes Steve think he's buying time for David Colton to free the hostages at the US embassy, ​​but they were killed; apparently, only two remain. This whole situation brings back memories for Colton of Iraq, where a car bomb attack broke him psychologically, leading him to commit a crime against his colleagues. Doom tricked Steve; this entire conversation was intended to distract him from the bomb attack so he could publicly execute Mariu s Wolf. This comic offers a brilliant and realistic take on Captain America, refreshing his mythology by placing him in a modern-day setting. Art It's art filled with details that are elevated to another level of quality with different textures, offering designs as overwhelming as they are mind-blowing of Captain America and his new universe of characters. Summary Doctor Doom has an ace up his sleeve while Steve tries to distract him and Colton seeks to save the hostages. A striking new installment in this saga that brilliantly reimagines the Captain America mythology. more

I’m going to continue to read this because I feel like it has a lot of potential. Story is pretty good. But a lot of potential. The art was definitely inconsistent this issue. Some pages look amazing. Others ok. I thought there were two artists working on this book. But Valerio schiti is laboring some pages come off as very rushed.

I like this series way more than I should. It's a little generic, but it has a lot of good scenes.

This whole revamped year one story just isn't doing it for me and I hope it only lasts 5-6 issues and switches to the current timeline with more interesting stories.

This issue was the weakest and most predictable so far. I’m still interested to see where this is going though.
