The Death of Captain America, Volume 2: The Burden of Dreams by Ed Brubaker

4.0

Only one collection after Steve Rogers was shot, there's a new, gun-wielding Captain America in town, trying to deal with the huge mess created by the Red Skull's latest plan.
Ed Brubaker keeps up his compelling work. The Skull's evil plan has a few too many "ripped from the headlines" plot points (a recession, a housing crisis, Blackwater-like security troops, high oil prices) to which Captain America can't possibly be the salve.
Also, there's a bit too much mind control going on for my liking. Still, Brubaker nails the characterizations for Bucky Barnes, Iron Man (who isn't totally evil as SHIELD Director), Falcon, and Red Skull.
