Is Captain America too violent? His partner, the Falcon thinks so and wants to chat about it with Steve Rogers, the first Captain America. But time for repentance is short as the latest Baron Zemo launches an attack on Bucky Barnes to destroy his life and may have help from a certain Red Skull. Will they succeed? This issue was interesting and obviously a set for Barnes to fall into more violent acts as he avenges his friend and at the last minute realize that violence is not the way. Well, that’s what I expect at the end of this story as well as the formal introduction of a new Red Skull and the creation of a new batch of arch villains for the hero. In other words, I feel that I’ve read this story before and know what’s going to happen in about three issues from now. Guice delivers better art than usual, which is a weird thing to say as he’s always very good. There’s something about the way he inks this series that has changed. It’s much stronger than before.
Rating: 7/10
