    Captain America is honestly doing very well in terms of omnibuses, especially compared to Iron Man.

    The standard edition cover is truly the only choice.

      It is a great cover but looking at my floppy of that issue the omni looks over saturated or too bright. I enjoy original colors but it doesn't look colored correctly.

    At long last it's here. Although I've never read any of the material in this omnibus, it's been my most wanted omni for a couple of years now, purely because of how lovingly you spoke about this run. It's the same way you spoke about Claremont's X-Men, Waid's Fantastic Four and Peter David's Hulk. I had read the former two runs before but picked up and read the latter's omni's for the very same reason and neither they nor you let me down. So I cannot wait to get my hands on this. I just hope Marvel don't make us wait years for volume 2!

    This is the greatest Cap run of all time.
    I have triple dipped: original issues, Epics, and now Omni.
    No other writer has gotten into Cap's mind like Mark Gruenwald. So, do yourself a favor and buy it!

    Another thing about Gruenwald is that he wasn't trying to make Cap "cool" as the approach maybe certain other writers might perhaps take to a degree. Because he already saw him as a cool, stand up wholesome guy and I absolutely love that.
    You don't have "try to make him cool" because he already is cool.

    I remember reading the later story-arcs, involving cross-over adventures with Captain America, Falcon, & Battle-Star, as well as their various confrontations with the Serpent Society & the Skeleton Crew. Good times. Thanks for covering this Omnibus.

    Oh man, love this run so much. The only time of my life I stopped buying comics was after that NO MORE issue, so sad I was, thinking Steve Rogers was done forever. Beautiful times, and it was right after Under Siege arc on Avengers.
    Now, I dont understand why they used this cover both on Omnibus and on Epic. Its a great cover but issue 332 cover is much more fitting to the arc, I would even choose #327 instead of this. Whats your opinion Omar?

  • @anthonygarcia8749
    @anthonygarcia8749 21 день тому

    Love this run, just read it for the first time in epic format and it's certainly one of the best Cap runs.
    To me, the top 4 best (in no order) will always be
    Lee/Kirby/Steranko
    Englehart/Buscema
    Gruenwald
    Brubaker
    But what I especially love in this run is that at one point I realized how Gruenwald more than any other writer for whatever reason, made Cap feel like a big brother who's always willing to help and give you advice and support you.
    Another thing I love is US Agent, I wasn't expecting to like him as much as I did, but I did lol. Such a great character that he gradually infused with sympathy and pathos. John himself gradually acted and conducted himself as Cap would but still has his own edge and sensiblities (not to say that Cap doesn't have an edge or can't have an edge which he definitely can at times but yeah lol)

      Agreed. I don't understand the vetting process for cover selection at Marvel. I have the Conan Comic run and 3 straight months they used a red background cover for the DM. All sucked in my opinion.

    and Serpent Society, Caps new girlfriend, Nomad... I started Cap at #306. I used to think Madcap was going to be a secret origin to Deadpool.
    I'm surprised this didn't come out when the sidekick series came out. Loved the sidekicks in the car moment during the movie, but just wished they coulda fit Nomad in there too.

    Was on the fence of buying it. Big Cap Fan. But this book is sadly too big for my taste. 1000 pages give or take is my limit. 1336 not so much. And you can see the thin paper very clearly, artwork from the back bleeding through. This is very important for classic material where there is lots of white space. Will have to wait for the Masterworks to catch up.

    Such a shame tjat the letter pages are not included. But at least the letter page from 312 is included about 308 printing error and my name was on that letter page sò super hyped about that.
    Will still be picking up the standard edition which i'll imagine will sell out if not all Ready has
