I liked this volume better than the last. It seemed more cohesive, though the big baddie seemed to be caught a little bit too easily. I did like seeing Sharon kick some butt, as well as the mundane time Steven and Sharon spent together. Although it's a bit saccharine, the I appreciated last issue about the American Dream, and how, even though America was built on rotten foundations, and the American Dream was/is used to silence people who don't have equal opportunities as advertised, that the ideals of freedom and a multiracial, multicultural democracy are worth working towards and fighting for.

Naive writer/pencil artist: But how many times can we resurrect Red Skull?
Marvel bosses: Yes.

Oh, toxic masculinity and American exceptionalism. So glad Captain America is against it.

This series continues to entertain and build into a more complicated, enjoyable plot.

Truly enjoyed this one and the art of the first couple of issues. Felt like the story picked up the pace a bit.

3.5/5

this volume was a mild improvement on an otherwise very underwhelming story; I wish Coates had done a better job at hiding his lack of interest in Steve Rogers as a character at the very least... I loved the focus he gave Sharon, though! I find it sad that it happened at the detriment of Steve's growth as a character here in this plot (which is never-ending now...), and that kinda sucks. the art in issue #24 was sooooooooooooooooo beautiful though! Daniel Acuña is a god, I swear.
