I am a huge Kyle Baker fan and think that when he's on there are few better cartoonists in the world, but this is straight up the worst thing he's ever drawn. It's so depressing because it's such a strong idea and I think he could have really done a tremendous job with the material but just... didn't?
I think this final chapter was a little better, like, at least it establishes mood and pathos. The rest of it looks like he had five minutes and 6 inch panels to work with.
I guess theres a page limit but yeah in this issue there was some pages of scenes where Steve confronts the racist scumbag army guy that had some responsibility of making Isiaha life hell during his time as a super soldier and how he betrayed the US to the Nazis, he was also selling drugs at his comic store. yeah after being refuted by the Black FBI agent with facts, he had the nerve to ask Steve for a autograph, they did show what Steve did but I hope Steve punched him(that might kill him) or atleast take his Cap picture and tore it telling that guy he's ashamed to have a fan like him.
I really liked the way Morales wrote Steve Rogers here. At the time I thought, "This guy should be writing a regular Cap series" and sure enough, he eventually did, and it was pretty great too.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
