Excellent Collection! November 2, 2008 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 September 29, 2008 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 September 17, 2008 0 out of 8 found this review helpful
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 September 9, 2008 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 August 12, 2008 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.
