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. Steeped in the life-or-death tension of insurrectionist combat, is the young Marine Corporal James Newsom really fighting side by side with Captain America, or is it all in his mind? And is Cap actually... dying? Collects Captain America: The Chosen #1-6

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A really good story
and A interesting take on Captain America's origin. I really liked it and its a really good read



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Beautifull told
It may have received mix reviews, and in some cases by people who I think inferred a political agenda where one did not exist, but I finished this yesterday and it's a wonderful graphic novel, told beautifully.

Also, the artwork has that sketchy, gritty quality that compliments the writing and topic very well.

SPOILER ALERT

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



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This book is an amazing combination of exciting writing and powerful graphics
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
