Trial of Captain America
Sin, the new Red Skull and daughter of the original Red Skull, gets involved with Bucky's trial as things really heat up.
The Good: Let me start off by saying just how beautiful the artwork is. Butch Guise's pencils with inks and colors are, plain and simply, a visual delight. It complements Brubaker's writing style, in my opinion. With the penultimate issue of The Trial of Captain America, things really do get turned up a notch. We get Bucky's internal monologue throughout the issue and it is really well written. Although this isn't an action orientated issue, Brubaker draws you in and keeps things interesting in a court room. Next issue will bring the conclusion to this story arc and I can't wait to see how Bucky ends up after this. The stakes are set high and there seems to not be an easy way out for Bucky.
The Bad: Nomad's backup feature. I have decided to skip it altogether. It's just not interesting enough to make me want to read it. I could do without the back up and just the mean feature, and a $2.99 price tag.
I am enjoying this title so much. That means a lot from me, seeing as to how I was about to drop the title before the beginning of the arc. I am glad that I didn't. I believe that the results of this arc will have a huge effect on Bucky, those around him and the name "Captain America."
