    Captain America has already been set up to be an integral part of the Marvel's Avengers game, and his Gamerverse comic solidifies that importance perfectly. Read Full Review

    I really enjoyed each and every one of the Marvel Avenger's one-shots, except for this! The writing was the best part and even that was just okay. The art was really awful and it felt like Paul Allor was trying a bit too hard to write a Captain America issue. I would not recommend this issue! Read Full Review

    Memories of a brilliant comrade in WWII help Cap outthink Batroc in an armored car heist with a twist. Solid middle-shelf art and prose are lifted up by some smart ideas and a strong link to Cap's past.

    I can't remember the last time I read such a terrible Marvel comic. I mean where do I begin? Captain America starts off the scene going after Batroc the Leper. The art quality is decent but the fight scene is slow and uninspired. I know Batroc isn't an A-lister or anything but being taken out so easily and not knowing anything about what he's being hired to do is the most idiotic and lazy character writing I have had the displeasure of reading. Nothing happens in terms of story progression and there are unnecessary flashbacks about an irrelevant war hero that taught Captain America I don't really know what exactly because of how vague the descriptions were. I would skip this issue entirely as a read because of how forgetful it is.
