I don't remember a ton of specifics besides the ones I've read most recently, but I will say this: Brubaker loves Captain American and Bucky. This collection is well put together and well worth having.īeen reading this book off and on for over a year, so forgive the relative vagueness of this review. The omnibus includes Brubaker's last Cap issue and a short letter from Brubaker talking about his love for Captain America and Bucky and how glad he was to have had the chance to write Cap. There is also some nice art work from Guice and Lark. Brubaker's espionage writing is excellent and he uses his skills to weave a well plotted interesting story with several Soviet assets on ice like Bucky, coming back into action. Where Brubaker shines in this collection are the Winter Soldier issues. They were a little shallow depth wise, but even the weaker issues are better than some other writers' good issues of Cap (sad to say).

I thought the Cap issues towards the end of the run weren't the best issues from Brubaker. Also included is the beginning issues of the Winter Soldier series written by Brubaker (14 issues).

So, Marvel finished their classic numbering of the Cap book and rebooted with a new number one. But, it was a little sad finishing it off and knowing there is no more of the run to read now. I'm so glad Marvel printed the whole of Brubaker's run in omnibus format. I let this one sit on the shelf for a little bit after I got it.
