Getting somewhere
So, finally, an issue full of story. My complaints with a lot of Marvel comics lately is lack of script and story but here we get our fill of both. Brubaker still isn't writing like he used to but Cap 8 is a very fun and interesting issue. The story is picking up a bit and we are starting to see events tie together and the story evolve into a more complex creature. The art is a bit disappointing but at times I really enjoy what I'm seeing. One thing Davis does that I missed is he draws a more lean athletic Steve Rogers vs. the bulky, strong man version. I like an acrobatic Cap like in the old days. All in all, it isn't a masterpiece but at least things are in motion, the script is there with more going on and the story is pulling together. Read it!
