Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty was a year long second Captain America series with tales told throughout Captain America's history from the 1940s to the modern day. There's no overriding story, rather these are kind of like, "Untold Tales of Spider-man" or perhaps D.C.' s Legends of the Dark Knight.Mark Waid (who was writing the principle Captain America series at the time) writes most of the stories in this book.Let's break down the stories, one by one:The book leads off with a Sharon Cart...
The Mark Waid written stories were awesome, or at least very good. The book didn't always take place in the present which works really well for a character like Captain America. The book is rich in history and a lot of background, you get stories with Bucky even though at the time the events of Winter Soldier had not come to light. All in all it is a good book. Ron Garney's artwork when it appears is solid, though in the first story it suffers because of Dan Panosian's inks. He is a very stylist...
There are some good comics in this collection (although no great ones), but its something of an anthology series, and some of the creators handle the character better than other. And with all love to Roger Stern, the idea of a Revolutionary Captain America seems....unnecessary.
The mind-blowing thing about this collection, it's a perfect sample for the whole "everything old is new again" thing that happens in comics.Can we talk about a few thing that happened in 1998?1. Captain America V. Iron ManYes, Earth's Mightiest Heroes had a fistfight in 1998. Of course, it involved some weird bullshit and they weren't real enemies, but we still had the two exchanging blows.2. Sam Wilson Captain AmericaYep! In 1998, in this series, Sam Wilson took on the mantle of Captain Americ...
Very good
Confesso um certo fraquinho por este, que é o mais icónico dos personagens da Marvel, apesar dos seus óbvios contornos a puxar a nacionalismos e patriotismos. Se bem que a personagem tem uma gestão inteligente, mais a puxar aos ideais de liberdade e democracia do que simples acenar de bandeira. Nesta série de histórias assinadas por Mark Waid e outros, olha-se com um olhar moderno para as aventuras do passado do Capitão América. É um revisitar algo nostálgico, mas sem cair na emulação, das histó...
Really loved the “Brothers in Arms” issue. Mark Waid has yet to disappoint me.
Reprints Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #1-12 (September 1998-August 1999). Captain America has been America’s sign of justice for decades. Be it battling with the Invaders and Bucky in World War II against Nazis forces, fighting racism in Harlem with the Falcon, or even his distant relative helping liberate America from the British, Captain America is always at the forefront of history and the voice of the American people!Written by Mark Waid, Ron Garney, Brian K. Vaughan, Roger Stern, an...
Great stories, which is usual for Waid, but I didn't care for the art. Very 90s.

This reimagining of the early Cap. America stories has some nice twists... and then some just peculiar "hey, look, Ma, they let me monkey w/Cap!" moments. There is NO cohesive whole, though... sigh.
