Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another classic Mark Waid tale
Review: For the realists, this is a great explanation of why Cap was thawed out in the '60's, but hasn't aged 30 years today. The only story better than this is the follow-up "Man Without A Country".

Summary: Waid "Rebirths" Cap
Review: The "Operation Rebirth" storyline was a major factor in reintroducing Captain America to a new generation in the late 90s. After Cap suffered a terrible run in the late 80s-early 90s (D-Man, anyone?), Waid was able to re-invigorate the character and give him something to fight for and against. The story is taut and tense; the art is crisp and clean. And the Red Skull is there as well. What more could you ask out of a Captain America story?

While Waid and Garney's relaunching of the Captain America title and franchise didn't last beyond a handful of issues, this story still stands as one of the strongest ever. Read and enjoy.

Summary: Best Captain America epic in Years.
Review: The team of Mark Waid and Ron Garney delivered a four part epic in this story of Steve Rogers;Captain America being revived with a new injection of the Super Soldier Formula by his long time foe, the Red Skull and then reluctently joining forces with the Skull to stop an evil group of people from using the Cosmic Cube ( a device with the power to alter reality) from taking over the United States. A solid action/adventure story from first to last page and would be the basis for a good live action Cap film too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A masterpiece like few others i've seen
Review: What can be said about that more the acts? The act of a 16 year old guy crying by the end of a comic book? All i can say is: thank you a lot Mark. Ron. Anyone can make a story for a super hero, but few can make stories for a symbol.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great!
Review: With the Super-Soldier Serum wearing off, Captain America's body decays, and begins to die. Left alone in his death throes, Cap is spirited away, and revived by his old enemy, the Red Skull. Working with Cap's old flame, Sharon Carter, the Skull needs Cap's help to defeat a common enemy. Can Captain America trust the Red Skull? No. But, to save the free world, he might have to work with him.

It is great to see Captain America again, and this comic novel carries him forward as the great hero we remember. The story is very good, and the illustrations are nothing short of excellent. I bought this book for my son, who liked it a lot, but I just had to steal it away and read it for myself. It's a great book, and my son and I both highly recommend it to you!
