Captain America #42

Bucky said it best, "it carries weight, but it's not a burden, it's a responsibility." With that said, Brubaker has handled his part beautifully, the end of the "death" storyline culminating in Bucky actually becoming the new cap, complete with glamorous news coverage and all that jazz. The bad guys lose, but that's to be expected, and when it's done this elegantly, whi can complain. The entire ride has been nothing but greatness, and as Bucky said once again, "This is what being Captain America is all about." All the plot threads I can think of are resolved, with new possibilities being presented, most notably a new form the Red Skull takes.(which I found funny as hell, oddly enough)

I can't wait to see this pan out. The art is great but enough has been said about it.

A truly a satisfying conclusion to an epic, epic storyline.

Bravo, bravo.
