coming to screens in april captain america the winter soldier is pulled from the pages of the award winning winter soldier storyline by writer ed brubaker and artist steve epting spanning captain america issues 1 9 and 11 14 winter soldier is a fast paced spy story that changed cap s status quo forever aided by artistic team mike perkins michael lark and john paul leon brubaker and epting reenergized the captain america mythos in the introduction of the arc s titular character reviving cap s dead partner bucky barnes as highly skilled soviet assassin the winter soldier full of action intrigue and poignant character development this saga lives up to the hype as its movie adaptation makes its way to a theater near you since the end of world war ii soviet russia has used its secret weapon the ruthlessly efficient and untraceable winter soldier to assassinate key western political figures deactivated at the end of the cold war this undercover agent is once again revived by the power hungry general lukin and used to do his dirty work lukin who has come into possession of a vastly powerful and reality bending cosmic cube embarks on a plot of death and destruction that brings captain america to his door cap still reeling from a series of recent traumas is in no shape to come face to face with bucky or the horrors that have been done to him what begins with the surprising assassination of the red skull ends in a globe trotting spy story of regret and redemption as cap struggles to save his best friend from himself brubaker is a masterful storyteller and his gift for plotting really shows in winter soldier his scripting throughout the arc is air tight settling into a compelling pace and never letting up as every component of the unfolding mystery seamlessly comes together while certainly action packed the globe trotting adventure is elegantly tempered by flashback sequences and downtime slowing down to afford some truly poignant moments the interlude the lonesome death of jack monroe from artists leon and palmer chronicles the tragic last months of jack monroe s life as his mind begins to slip as result of the super soldier serum likewise cap s flashbacks to the 1940s as well as the development of bucky s experiences as the winter soldier create a strong personal undercurrent to balance the story effectively however while i enjoy brubaker s work i find that his characterizations are often quite thin winter soldier unfortunately is no exception the somewhat generic dialogue feels a bit tired throughout as steve recycles uninspired lines plucked right from equally uninspiring action movies with a blandly flirtatious sharon this is a little irksome but compared to the rest of the compelling character drama ultimately doesn t detract from the enjoyment of the story i just wish some of the emotional weight reserved for bucky s and jack s storylines could have been a little bit more equally distributed among the rest of the principle cast epting who handles the bulk of the artwork brings the story to the page with energy and gravitas his strong sense of narrative truly shines through the use of thoughtful page design and panel transition expertly pacing each critical scene the quality of his lines and dramatic use of shadow sets a somber tone that grounds the story in a real sense of weight and physicality overall his style meshes impeccably with perkins and flashback artist lark making for a cohesive reading experience from start to finish this is also due largely in part to the work of colorist frank d armata d armata s dark and moody palettes affect a somber tone throughout and the use of grayscale color schemes during the flashback sequences is a nice touch overall winter soldier is a great story from a dynamic creative team it s fun it s compelling and it s wonderfully crafted from start to finish this arc is required reading for captain america fans but i highly recommend it to anyone looking for an exciting superhero read oh and be sure to see the movie i hear it s pretty good magen cubed http www eonism net don t forget to share this share on facebook opens in new window facebook share on x

and wolverine meltdown 4 posted on march 31 2014 by echarta with its fourth issue this 80s action adventure romp comes to a dramatic close ending this enjoyable flashback on an overall high note after logan s apparent death at alex s hands the spy mercenary quark uses her blooming romantic relationship with alex to lead him to india and directly into the clutches of general meltdown in this issue we learn that this globe trotting journey has been a complex rouse created by meltdown and doctor neutron meant to pit alex against meltdown so that the general can absorb alex s devastating radioactive blast logan however has other plans after being buried in a shallow grave logan comes back as alex predicted thanks to his healing factor from there he follows the staged clues left behind by quark to arrive in india at the power plant meant to serve as the stage of general meltdown s ascension into untold levels of power led by quark alex believes that he s rushing into the plant to avoid an impending meltdown and is instead met by meltdown dramatic monologues ensue as alex squares off against the power hungry mutant as quark still masquerading as scarlett is wounded in the skirmish fueled by heartbreak and rage alex unleashes a massive blast on meltdown playing right into meltdown s hands just when all seems lost logan arrives to stop meltdown piercing him with a slew of control rods as to dampen and wither his powers still channeling excessive levels of power alex redirects the radioactive onslaught up and into space sparing the plant and everyone inside with meltdown dead and scarlett seemingly lost in the crossfire logan and alex make their escape to bombay taking a moment to breathe as their adventure comes to an end in the epilogue we see neutron plan for the future quickly overcoming this setback to move onto the next big scheme at the expense of the world s superhero community overall this was an enjoyable series with plenty of twists and turns and amazing art to boot in this closing issue muth and williams deliver a visually exciting story with explosive action sequences in the alex meltdown showdown and dramatic page design the use of color was especially affective here with lovely golds and earth tones against eerie blues and greens to explore the interior of the plant this book is just unquestionably nice to read providing a consistently engaging visual experience from start to finish i wish i could say the same of walter and louise simonsons scripting while definitely fun this issue in particular really suffers from the overuse of cliché dialogue and exchanges between alex and quark so sugary sweet as to induce a diabetic episode i have to give the simonsons props for an entertaining plot for muth and williams to capitalize on but the dialogue is often so bad that i had to laugh and not in a good way for all the soft spots havok and wolverine meltdown is still a highly entertaining nostalgic trip to the comics

finally came back to the shelves in her own anticipated ongoing solo title fresh off her recent major role in ff from matt fraction and lee and mike allred jennifer is back to basics this new book is helmed by the creative team of writer charles soule artist javier pulido and color artist munsta vicente and offers a fun ride for readers new and old an upbeat title that takes several cues from its

and confidence to open her own practice a fun romp into the flipside of the superhero business she hulk preserves the wit and charm of her earlier titles while still doing something new soule delivers a solid script here maintaining a likeable playfulness in showing off jennifer s legal savvy as she maneuvers through stark s obnoxious corporate defenses pulido brings this quirky world to life with a strong sense of storytelling buoyed by the retro sensibilities of his line work and several clever comedic flourishes throughout vicente s clean bright color palettes help to develop this cool visual aesthetic making for a fun visual experience from start to finish overall this issue is just fun reviving a character with a rich history and an eager readership longtime she hulk fans will love the playful writing and entertaining artwork while new readers will find plenty of love in jennifer s continuing adventures if you re looking to a lighthearted and engaging superhero book i highly recommend she hulk 1 magen cubed http www eonism net don t forget to share this share on facebook opens in new window facebook share on x opens in new window x share on linkedin opens in new
