[QUOTE=Chris0013;5778440]And he isn't being drawn big enough. John is a pretty big guy compared to Steve.[/QUOTE]
[center]LOL! Maybe they're going for the Paul Neary version of John's physique. :p

John Walker sure has come a long way since those first appearances, huh?

United States of Cap 5 shows how you stick the landing. My surprise hit of 2021. Could totally see a show based on USAofC.

Based on that recommendation, I could (and should) check it out. That said, I thought it was gonna be six issues in total.

Yeah they may have ended it early but this was definitely the last issue and was jam packed. The art was beautiful as well. two of my fave pages.

Thought this issue returned the story back to form. Not having Eaglesham as the main artist for the previous issue was jarring. So it was good to see the art again.
As for the issue itself, it made me pause, in a good way. When the villains talked about how America was built on hateful violence, that cut deep. A lot of people are realizing that America has not lived up to being a home for the free and the land of the brave for everyone. That it's revered figures are all too human and that maybe they shouldn't be revered.
But Cap counters back. "If you think that's true, then you don't know America at all." Poignant. Very poignant, Steve.
And yes, seeing the different Cap's there, that was cool. I acknowledge that some people would find it hokey. An Indigenous person, all these individuals of color, a queer person, a U.S. serviceman, all cosplaying as Cap. Yeah right. But yeah, maybe Steve's identity, his dream, maybe they resonate with all us. And maybe we forget that. And sometimes we have to be reminded of that.
I'll have to read the series again. But it finished strong.

That's actually a pretty good summation. I will definitely have to check this out.

That two-page spread with all the different Caps who aren't the "featured" ones had my interest, especially "Business" Cap with his suitcase shield. Wonder what his story is.

Definitely wouldn't mind Cantwell getting the ongoing when it returns. If he does then the Captains Network can be included.
