Captain America #28

One-sentence summary: Brubaker continues to deliver a solid book, even lacking its title protagonist, though this is a bit of a slow issue compared with others.

Captain America has been a pretty quality book while Brubaker has ran the show, and it continues to be good. This issue steps back the pace some and allows us to catch up to the status of the title's various characters and see where they're headed. Though slow compared to some issues, it's a necessary and appreciated slowness right now, giving the characters a bit of time to talk outside of fighting. The art continues to be absolutely excellent. While this isn't a good issue to pick up if you haven't been reading the arc, it's a good issue that flows things along and prepares the way for the next couple issues.
