Excellent Collection! I just want to say real quick that I highly recommend this collection to anyone interested in Captain America. All of the members of the team that created this comic series did a fantastic job with the direction and look of it.
I honestly couldn't have been happier and to top it off, the price on Amazon is about the lowest I've seen yet. I searched all your normal placed and it was still $20.00 more than it is here.
In my mind it's WORTH getting in every way.
Top quality of new captain america This is one of the best comic book collections I have ever found. The drawings are top quality and the story lines are great.
I Didn't Really Enjoy This I'm not a Captain America fan or fan of the author so I'm reviewing this book as a person totally new to this character and book. I can't really say I enjoy the story. It is so slow and the action wanes back and forth. When there is action, Captain America is a pretty boring character. All he has is his shield that he uses either to block bullets or as a boomerang to knock out villains. He can punch and kick as well, but that's about it. I guess you can say the same for Spider-Man, but then he can shoot webs, punch, kick, climb walls, has spider-sense and has a way more interesting personal life. The artwork, however, is suprisingly good. It is on glossy pages and the illustrations are very polished and somewhat video game looking.
I can see why this got so much media attention. Great book Captain America Omnibus by Ed Brubaker is a great read. In the past I had some problems with some of the way Amazon shipped some items but this came in a box and arrived just fine (it is a 2 inch thick book and heavy) and so thank you Amazon. The price was much discounted for a new book another plus. I could not put it down. Brubaker is now my favorite comic author. What can I say? Without trying to spoil the story this book features a major event in the history of Marvel Comics (I guess that's why the story received so much media attention). If you buy only one Marvel Omnibus book and you want a great story with great artwork then this book is it. Highly recommended. A++
great read this collection is everything a Captain America fan could want in a book and more if u love cap then this is a must buy 4 u.
