With artwork by Kieron Dwyer, the issue delivers both an action-packed slugfest and meaningful character development as Steve seeks a new shield from Tony Stark, laying groundwork for the Armor Wars crossover. A solid pick for fans of the late-Copper Age Captain America and collectors of Marvel's Fall of the Mutants event.
