    Time works different here

    So this comic throws a curve ball right at the start with 3 little words "one year later". Got to admit I didn't expect that one. It raises some questions about just how the heck Cap is active in so many books during all this, but I can only guess that it will be hand waved as dimension shift time later on. Story wise this issue is a bit dull, mostly focusing Cap's problems trying to protect Ian in the deadly wilderness of Dimension Z. We get some nice little flashbacks which I'm sure I'd notice were retconning Cap's past even more than the first issue apparently did. Still the issue is nice and every comic needs a decent amount of set up for later conflicts. The issue also ends on a nice cliffhanger, which should allow for a more organic start for the next issue.

He has looked after I...

      Yup, form the dark themes, the tragic flashbacks and caps new friend, we can clearly see that this book has definitely Remender's mark on it. i'll admit i was kind of skeptical about the whole extra dimensional themes, especially since we haven't seen cap involved something like this before, but damn, one of Rick Remender strong suits are undoubtedly introducing new and exciting elements to the book. The story is amazing, cap and his new friend called Ian are on a quest for survival, and we see ...
