Product Description: Marvel brings you a groundbreaking new vision of Captain America as you've never seen him, in this six-issue Marvel Knights mini-series in the vein of Spider-Man: Reign and Silver Surfer: Requiem.

and A interesting take on Captain America's origin. I really liked it and its a really good read

BUT, my big but, is the premise of Cap suddenly having ... Read More

I haven't read a graphic novel or a comic book in a long time. David Morrell is one of my favorite writers so when I saw that he'd been involved in this project I had to see what it was about.
Boy am I glad I did.
The book is a combination of 6 comics that I believe were previously released individually and that were combined into one hardback graphic novel. The writing is tight and compelling and tells the story of the decay and death of Captain America as he tries to help develop ... Read More
