Captain America #699 cover by Chris Samnee and Matthew Wilson
I'm sad too. However, this issue does continue to show how well Mark Waid and Chris Samnee understand Steve Rogers, how he thinks, and how he acts Steve doesn't immediately try to challenge the Hulk He tries to get through to him or Banner first He doesn't ambush the Thing working away for Babbington; he lets[...]

marvel comics Captain America #696 cover by Chris Samnee and Matthew Wilson
The Mark Waid and Chris Samnee stint on Cap's book does feel like a very self-conscious 180 on Blecret Blimpire It's trying to make things really simple in a very complicated world, and Captain America has been tackling that world since… well the original Blecret Blimpire with varying success. All of that being said, Captain America[...]
captain america
Yesterday, a press release asked, "Where Is Wolverine And What Is His Shocking Secret?" Today, a press release declares, "Captain America: Back On Ice…The Answer Will Shock You!" The move to clickbait press releases is fitting in a way, considering the constant spamming of super-mega-crossover events, line-wide relaunches, and variant covers is basically the comic[...]
no surrender
Here's the actual description of the event, from the press release: "Co-written by Mark Waid, Al Ewing and Jim Zub with art by Pepe Larraz, Kim Jacinto and Paco Medina, AVENGERS: NO SURRENDER unites the casts and creative teams of three titles into one weekly book of exciting action It all starts with AVENGERS #675 this[...]
Avengers: No Surrender
Certainly, the original Avengers seems to be important part of the upcoming Avengers: No Surrender event, with a lot of artwork centred around the original Avengers statue with the addition of mysterious new character Voyager. Avengers: No Surrender will be made up of the several Avengers titles currently being released, Avengers, USAvengers and Uncanny Avengers, creating[...]
Marvel Legacy Captain America #695 Review: What Does Captain America Mean Now?
Mark Waid has constructed a classic Captain America story perfectly opposing the most recent string of Steve Rogers tales Captain America is on his motorcycle, exploring small towns, and fighting injustice and cruelty when he sees it. Steve is soft-spoken and timid in the face of all the adoration He wants to encourage the best in[...]
Avengers #672 cover by Alex Ross
That feeling continues here. It kind of feels like writer Mark Waid doesn't know what he wants to do with this team He built it, seems to like the characters, but doesn't know where to send them. Last issue did have some good character moments, particularly in regards to Thor convincing Falcon that he should continue to[...]
Avengers #11 Review: A Lacking Story With Unfitting Art
Now, with Jim Zub in the writer's chair and the subtraction of Deadpool, I am truly enjoying Uncanny Avengers for the first time since its creation. Mark Waid's All-New, All-Different Avengers was a darling of mine, too, until it split off into Champions and Avengers I followed the Champions for a good bit and was utterly[...]

But what if a character's legacy has been irreparably tarnished? When Captain America returns to Legacy numbering of #695 in November, writer Mark Waid and Chris Samnee will aim to put a fist through the smug face of the damaged reputation of Steve Rogers in the wake of Cap's fascist adventures in Secret Empire. "Our issues are[...]
Why More Comics Need To Show Superheroes Inspiring Kids
In the continued saga of "Josh reads a past series and gets a thought," we now find ourselves revisiting Mark Waid's the Flash series from the early 1990s. I was reading the recently released trade of it, and found myself fixated on something that happened in #62, which was a "Year One" story for Wally West,[...]
Champions #10 Review: Better Than Its Tie-In Event
That sounds like a lot to tackle, but it really is par for the course for Mark Waid's Champions. This could have easily been muddled by some attempt to try to make it more relevant to the overall story of Secret Empire However, it keeps it smart by focusing on only these three team members and[...]

It's independent Avengers meets relationship Champions in Marvel Legacy's next crossover from Mark Waid, Jesus Saiz, and Humberto Ramos! Traditional comic book wisdom dictates that one runs crossover events to boost sales after they've started to lag since the last line-wide rebranding, relaunch, or reboot that follows a blockbuster super-mega-crossover event But the ever-innovating House of[...]

Mark Waid And Chris Samnee To Put Captain America Through Detox For Marvel Legacy?
And that still stands. But before then, according to new information reaching Bleeding Cool, the classic team of Mark Waid and Chris Samnee will relaunch Captain America – and the #694 Marvel Legacy issue November? December? Something like that I think we might expect an announcement at San Diego Comic-Con or similar Then Ta-Nehisi Coates will write the comic[...]
