This series has been very enjoyable, but up until now we’ve quietly been wondering why the action wasn’t taking place in the pages of the regular, ongoing Captain America series.

After all, we’ve been nothing but thrilled with what writer Ed Brubaker has done with the title, so why spin this off into its own thing? Well, this issue doesn’t do much to answer that particular question, but it goes a long way toward making us forget about our questions. For longtime Cap fans, the last page is worth the price of admission.
