![]() Rating: - Classic Cap at his bestWhen Waid and Garney took over Cap, I was thrilled. Waid had made some wonderful stories for the Flash, and he did not disappoint with Operation Rebirth. As a longtime Captain America fan, I was thrilled to read this short run by Waid and Garney. The stories were great: Cap was re-invigorated; Sharon Carter was brought back in a way classic readers never expected; Shield was right there in your face; and of course, Cap's nemesis, the Red Skull has a leading part. The artwork on this comic ... Read More Rating: - Waid "Rebirths" CapThe "Operation Rebirth" storyline was a major factor in reintroducing Captain America to a new generation in the late 90s. After Cap suffered a terrible run in the late 80s-early 90s (D-Man, anyone?), Waid was able to re-invigorate the character and give him something to fight for and against. The story is taut and tense; the art is crisp and clean. And the Red Skull is there as well. What more could you ask out of a Captain America story? While Waid and Garney's relaunching of the Captain ... Read More Rating: - Great!With the Super-Soldier Serum wearing off, Captain America's body decays, and begins to die. Left alone in his death throes, Cap is spirited away, and revived by his old enemy, the Red Skull. Working with Cap's old flame, Sharon Carter, the Skull needs Cap's help to defeat a common enemy. Can Captain America trust the Red Skull? No. But, to save the free world, he might have to work with him. It is great to see Captain America again, and this comic novel carries him forward as the great hero we ... Read More Rating: - Another classic Mark Waid taleFor the realists, this is a great explanation of why Cap was thawed out in the '60's, but hasn't aged 30 years today. The only story better than this is the follow-up "Man Without A Country". Rating: - A masterpiece like few others i've seenWhat can be said about that more the acts? The act of a 16 year old guy crying by the end of a comic book? All i can say is: thank you a lot Mark. Ron. Anyone can make a story for a super hero, but few can make stories for a symbol.
