1 out of 5 starsKilling and Resurrecting Comic Book Characters is Bad Writing
Cap will be back - and another attempt at true drama and poignancy aborted. He will join the Martian Manhunter (just wait), Barry Allen's Flash, Green Arrow, Green Lantern, Donna Troy and countless other superheroes who were "killed" only to be hokily brought back when it looked like a new surge in sales was needed. Comic book writers and editors: This has only been done right once, with the death of Superman. Please stop re-using this tired mechaninsm and simply write good stories. Making Death a revolving door renders what should be an ultimate sacrifice into a cynical gimmick. You can do better.



5 out of 5 starsGood Work from Leob
Bad news first its by Leob Good news its actually worth reading, there's no massive continuity errors many have come to expect from him. I really liked it and I hope you do too



5 out of 5 starsMarvel Civil War's Final Ending
I got to say i'm probably a bit one sided on this book because Captain America is my favorite Marvel character. To tell the truth though, theres not alot of cap in this book. Nevertheless, I loved this book! I just finished reading it for the first time and I am re-reading it now. The art is absolutley (in my mind) amazing. In my opinion this book definitley lived up to the The Death of Captain America series. The stories were fantastic and once again, the art is awesome. If you've read Civil War definitley get this book. The writing though is(to me at least) very touching. When Iron Man says good-bye to Cap for the last time it really struck a nerve. But, in my opinion there was not a single weak story. i mean sure some Stories were stronger than others (Wolverine, Spider-man and Iron-Man being my favorites.) if I had to pick my least favorite though It be the new avengers one. But,it still is a fantastic read. If your a Captain America fan, a Civil War lover, or just enjoy good stories pick this one up.



5 out of 5 starsGreat comic!
I already knew this comic book didn't include the actual comic of Captain America's death, but I bought it anyway. i actually enjoyed this comic. Some of the lines were kinda corny, but that's a comic book for ya. Anyway, I would recommend this book to any comic book lover.



3 out of 5 starsThe dream is dead...for now
In the aftermath of Civil War, Steve Rogers, AKA Captain America, met his apparent end via sniper's bullet. With Cap dead, Fallen Son focuses on the aftermath of his demise, and the effects it has on fellow heroes Wolverine, Spider-Man, and his one time ally and opposing force of the pro-registration act, Iron Man. The comics collected in Fallen Son: The Death of Captain America, are the various Fallen Son one-shots written by Jeph Loeb, who marked this as his return to Marvel. The biggest flaw of Fallen Son is that there are so many great ideas here that never really come to fruition. Loeb has managed to garner emotion in his previous, more higher profile works for Marvel (Daredevil: Yellow and even Spider-Man: Blue), but his attempts to do so here just seem stale. There's great artwork throughout though, including the talents of the great John Romita Jr., Ed McGuiness, and Planetary and Astonishing X-Men artist John Cassaday as well. That being said, you'll either dig Fallen Son or you won't, depending on how you feel about an icon like Steve "Captain America" Rogers getting laid to rest (for now). All in all, Fallen Son is worth a look at the very least, but don't expect anything special.
