In my opinion, Ed Brubaker is writing a great run on Captain America,
turning a superhero book into something akin to a spy thriller.
Brubaker executed and handled the assasination of Steve Rogers (AKA
Captain America) very well, and I actually look forward to reading what
happens next.
Granted all that, the redesign of the Captain
America costume is hidious. It's not even really a redesign, but simply
the old costume with black pants and carrying a gun. I hope the storyline establishes well that this is a very different Captain America, and that Steve Rogers is dead, because the original Captain America didn't need a gun.

I'm not the only fan to object to the redesign.
