Great Captain America Tale
The basis for this book is what is the worst thing that can happen to Captain America? How about being thrown out of America and having your American citizenship being taken away from you? That's what happens here as Steve Rogers tries to find who framed him for a crime that he didn't commit. ...

THE SILVER AGE OF CAPTAIN AMERICA
+ Steve Rogers dead? Nah... + Fun Reading
is there some legal reason why Marvel doesn't put out collections of their Golden Age Heroes like Captain America, the Human Torch, etc? Just curious. I'd love to see those. Well this Essential volume collects Caps Earliest Silver Age Adventures from Tales of Suspense #55 - 99 and Captain ...

Captain America Volume 4: Cap Lives TPB (Captain America) 2 reviews Dave Gibbons, Lee Weeks

Another great Captain America graphic novel
It's March 1964, and a submarine in the North Atlantic finds a body frozen in a block of ice, the body of Captain America, America's hero who disappeared some twenty years earlier. And, what comes as a great shock is that he isn't dead, Captain America is alive. But...it's Captain America who gets ...

Marvel Enterprises, 2005
Captain America Vol. 1
+ Early Stories of a Truly Classic Comic Book Character + AMAZING!!!!
This is the one. This is the 1940s' comic book strip that dreams are made of. The ugliest, meanest, nastiest villians of all time. Wild and wooley rip roaring stories. The pulp mags turned into a comic book. One of the three or four best collections of 1940s' superheros currently availible. The ...

Captain America: To Serve and Protect 2 reviews Mark Waid
Marvel Comics, 2002
Mark Waid, Cap's best writer
Ok, to be fair, I don't actually own this particular trade paperback. I bought all the original issues (including variant covers, 'cause I'm a sucker for Cap). But this book collects Captain America Volume 3 (don't ask) issues #1 through #8. It's a great run, too. Mark Waid does a better job ...

Lee - Kirby - Steranko...how can you go wrong, Marvelite?
+ Marvel Masterworks Captain America 3: Captain America
Collects Captain America #101-113. I don't see how anybody can buy these in the Essentials edition...they contain so much pulse-pounding color! It's classic villains galore as Cap fights the Red Skull and WWII Exiles, Batroc, Swordsman, the Living Laser, Dr. Faustus and...the fourth Sleeper! ...

The story starts in the jungles of Central America then seques into a fantasic adventure that would ...

Captain America Vol. 5: Civil War 9 reviews Ed Brubaker
Marvel Comics, 2007
Captain America...but not.
+ Call it Winter Soldier...
The book was good, don't get me wrong. But it seemed to be alot about the people around Cap instead of Cap himself, with a few exceptions. IF you are collecting Civil War TPBs it's a must. I like the Winter Soldier One-shot. All in all, a good read.

Moving into Civil War

Right before Civil War breaks out, Cap is in England investigating more. This story hints and moves well into Civil War and the induction of the Superhuman Registration Act. Another good read.

Avengers Disassembled: Captain America 3 reviews Robert Kirkman, Scot Eaton

Two Arc Mishmash
+ Cap gets disassembled + Silver Age goofyness meets Priest's writing confusing-ness
This features, as previously stated, Captain America and The Falcon 5-7, and Captain America 29-32.
The issues with the Falcon, while somewhat off pacing-wise, suffer from being the second half of an entirely different story arc. In these issues, the actual connection to Avengers: Disassembled ...

+ Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Vol. 1 + Excellent Reboot for Captain America
I had bailed out on the comic scene for good following High School, although I continued to pick up Jeff Smith's "Bone", since I knew it was a finite series, so I wouldn't have to be chained to it forever. Well, the day came and the series ended, and quite frankly, I missed my bi-monthly excursions ...

Marvel Comics, 2007
Arguably the best run of Captain America...
+ Early eighties Cap
This collects the full 9-issue run (247-255 in 1980) on Captain America by Roger Stern and John Byrne. As far as I'm concerned, these are arguably the best Captain America issues of all-time.
First of all, Byrne was at his artistic peak (circa his work on X-Men), and together, he and Stern ...
