I just want to say real quick that I highly recommend this collection to anyone interested in Captain America. All of the members of the team that created this comic series did a fantastic job with the direction and look of it.

I honestly couldn't have been happier and to top it off, the price on Amazon is about the lowest I've seen yet. I searched all your normal placed and it was still $20.00 more than it is here.

In my mind it's WORTH getting in every way.

You'd think a story titled "The Death of Captain America" would be the end for the series, but it turns out, surprisingly, to be a new beginning, a breath of fresh air. While Steve Rogers will be sorely missed, the book's supporting cast fill his shoes admirably. As Agent 13 and the Falcon search for Rogers' killer, Bucky embarks on a single-minded mission to assassinate Tony Stark, who he believes is responsible for the death of his oldest friend. Meanwhile, the Red Skull and his cohorts, Arnim Zola and Dr. Faustus, plot the destruction of America from behind the scenes.

Ed Brubaker has always been one for bold moves and here he makes the boldest--yet by killing off the main character, he has opened up so many more opportunities. And as the final pages of this volume show, he ... Read More

- Red Skull henchman: "Remember, the Red Skull rewards only those who--"
- BLAANG! (Cap's shield ricocheting off a henchman's dome)
- The new Cap: "Sorry... No evil Nazi rewards for you."

Having already set the stage by orchestrating the assassination of Captain America, the Red Skull and his associates continue to solidify their plan to bring about America's downfall, this time by targeting the nation's financial establishments. This, even as, in the wake of Steve Roger's passing, a new Captain America emerges. But this new incarnation is much darker and is prey to doubts. Because he isn't blessed with the super-soldier serum, he sports firearms to compensate. And, as he soon learns, the world isn't quite prepared to accept a substitute.

I got to say i'm probably a bit one sided on this book because Captain America is my favorite Marvel character. To tell the truth though, theres not alot of cap in this book. Nevertheless, I loved this book! I just finished reading it for the first time and I am re-reading it now. The art is absolutley (in my mind) amazing. In my opinion this book definitley lived up to the The Death of Captain America series. The stories were fantastic and once again, the art is awesome. If you've read Civil War definitley get this book. The writing though is(to me at least) very touching. When Iron Man says good-bye to Cap for the last time it really struck a nerve. But, in my opinion there was not a single weak story. i mean sure some Stories were stronger than others (Wolverine, Spider-man and Iron-Man being ... Read More

The Age of Apocalypse satisfies the inherent "What-If?" cravings that most readers are prey to: what is professor Xavier had died and his dream along with him? The Age of Apocalypse answers this questions in the most dramatic way possible.

First off, the technical issues: as mentioned, although this is labeled Book 2 by Marvel, it is in fact "Book 1", with the actual Book 1 containing one-off or self-contained stories that are not continuous in the main storyline. You may pick up this book without the previous one and not feel like you just jumped in midway.

... assuming you are already familiar with the X-Universe. There are at least 50 Characters in this Graphic Novel, almost all of whom are modified versions of existing characters in the mainstream Marvel Universe. As a casual ... Read More

Caps the end of a truly interesting time in Marvel's history. The reimagining of various X-Men characters, coupled with an updated history of many other Marvel icons, bring this memorable series to a close. This issue continues with much of the high drama from earlier issues and leads to many satisifying conclusions along with quite a number of tragic ones. A truly great read!

in volume 4 the age of apocalypse comes to an end in the issue xmen omega. however for some reason there are more issues included afterwards that really have little to do with AoA. the AoA series is great but i think these collections could have been better. they could have left out some of the stuff in volume one and all the stuff after xmen omega in volume 4 and made it into three volumes.

You mean to tell me after over 50 years of fighting in numerous wars and battling a plethora of sordid, odious, and sadistic villians one stealth villian's bullet finally kills the legendary Captain America? Well, it is written well, but not a believable tale.
