Despues de cargarnos al capi en la Civil War, hacemos como que intentamos la suplencia y , sin forzar mucho, has dedicamos a resucitarlo. La historia es decente y si lo comparamos con la resurrección de Superman le da mil vueltas, pero queda la sensación de que ya ni se esfuerzan. Matan y resucitar a un ritmo que lo vuelve trivial.

It had been years since I last read the preceding volumes so I basically had to start again from The Death of the Dream at least. I don't know why I put off reading the rest of Brubaker's work, I absolutely love everything. Okay, not everything, but I'm still pretty new to all this. And this, this was everything to someone like me.

I love what I have been able to read of Brubaker’s run on Captain America in Omnibus form. Honestly it has become probably my favorite run of the character. Let’s hope that Omnibus 4 & 5 reprints get announced soon.
Content Warnings
Graphic: Death, Gun violence, Medical trauma, Blood, Body horror, Violence, Gore, Injury/Injury detail, and War
Moderate: Confinement, Death of parent, Fire/Fire injury, Grief, Kidnapping, Mental illness, Schizophrenia/Psychosis , Torture, Alcohol, Bullying, and Panic attacks/disorders
Most of the triggers are in a quite extreme way, the mileage of harmful impact varies. I would focus on the medical trauma and psychological/mental illness related aspects as particularly present. I love this run so I might not be the best to highlight the triggers in this.doublefantasy's review against another edition

justice for Sharon Carter!!!!! stop making everyone else rescue her all the time!!!!!! sick of it!!!!!!! still enjoyed this omnibus though: loved to see Bucky really come into his own as Captain America while also grappling with his Winter Soldier past; loved Natasha and Bucky (as always)
this really needed more Sharon still
one thing I'll say is that #600 was annoying after the main storyline got cut off, some of the little stories were cute but for real: who gives a fuck about Bernadette Rosenthal? lmao, she gives me strong Karen Page vibes and if you know me you know that's really negative :P
anyways, strong plot! seing Steve beat the Skull and take control of himself was so cool and the payoff for all of this was great. not as strong as the first #25 though, no one can beat that bad boy.

A nostalgic treat. My appreciation for Brubaker's run on Captain America is probably more clinical than I'd like. It is smart writing, but it's also overly dense and so visually busy as to be numbing. But after Cap's death in previous volumes, Brubaker seems to find real kinship in his greatest creation, Bucky, The Winter Soldier. Bucky, taking Cap's place, gives Brubaker a freedom from the sheer mythology of the old Cap. Bucky is just more fun.
This volume gives an excellent balance to the whole thing by letting Bucky revel in the nostalgia of Cap even as we head towards the inevitable resurrection and thus we are re-introduced to the legend without getting too tangled up in it.

Yeah, as the title suggests, the good Captain America, Steve Rogers, lives.
Which was mildly off putting in the way the entire thing was handled. The first half of volume deals with Bucky Barnes taking up the shield and reconnecting with his old comrade Namor. The struggles of Bucky and the complexity of his existence made the character Captain America grounded and his actions, truly moral. Bucky isn't just a soldier, doesn't just embrace moral righteousness; he actively chooses them over his guilt of being an assassin in the past and tries to live up to expectations of his own doing.
The derailment of the story starts when another Captain enters who looks like Steve Rogers but acts like Skull. Bucky and Skull possessed Captain fight it out till Captain regains his agency and fights Skull. A bit melodramatic, a lot boring and repetitive and dragged across too many issues.
I enjoyed Bucky's stories and the Reborn arc didn't do much for me. There is only so much of draggy plot one can tolerate and Reborn arc just doesn't cut it.
