This is an abomination. This is the worst art (Rob Liefeld) ever to be seen in a Captain America comic. I hear tell that Marvel cancelled Captain America vol. 1 in order to let Rob Liefeld take over the character. I can’t imagine a character more mismatched for Liefeld’s… talents. This is a travesty. I think Liefeld leaves this series a few issues in. I will check those out, but not this. Not this….
