The stories in this Essential Volume has more depth, the late 60s and early 70s society is reflected in the plots and the characters are less naive.

In this Essential we have the art of John Romita Sr. and Sal Buscema too, so maybe this volume is one must have for the Cap lovers.

In the Essential Captain America Volume 3, Cap realizes this and tries to remake himself.
It starts right off the bat, as Cap is forced to prove his loyalty to SHIELD; he does ... Read More

Captain America really starts stepping up here. He gets a new sidekick in The Falcon, guest stars galore, the "return" of Bucky Barnes, and of course SHIELD shows up often. The weakness here however has to be the development of the Falcon. Perhaps the writers were unsure how to handle the character, and the years have definitely been kinder to Sam Wilson than his beginnings here, but it seems almost laughable at times. First, he fights hard to prove himself and become Captain America's new partner. ... Read More
