While still solid, this is probably my least favorite Brubaker Cap story so far. In general, I've enjoyed his decision to bring back Bucky and then make him Captain America, and if I suggested that Ed Brubaker was going to write a storyline where Bucky has to face all of the terrible things he did as Winter Solider in public, well, you'd presume that this is the sort of thing that Brubaker would do well. The problem is, as some reviewers have mentioned, is that it all feels so rote, which is something I'd never expect to say about a Brubaker comic. If you read a lot of Captain America, you should still read this, but I can't say it feels essential. ( )
