To be honest, some of the concepts in these books are pretty interesting-the central villain of all of the Captain America plus Avenger books-Kashmir Vennema-has an interesting secret (that is kind of revealed at the end of Captain America and Iron Man but is stated explicitly here)- but given what it is, I wonder if this arc wouldn't be more effective on the pages of Fantastic Four than here. I'll be getting to those collections soon enough, but I was willing to give Bunn the time to finish what he started with his Avengers team-ups. Why do I think this? Well reading the afterword to Captain America & Black Widow Bunn lets us know that he had intended for there to be more to this story than ended up being published (in team-ups with Hawkeye and Iron Man, and now with Black Widow), but effectively, the original Captain America title had changed into a Captain America team-up book, while Brubaker had begun writing a stand-alone book after the Prisoner of War arc. Maybe my problem with Cullen Bunn is that when it comes down to it, Ed Brubaker is a really hard act to follow. If there’s literally nothing else to read and you’re a fan of Francesco Francavilla’s art style, check this out. And it’s pretty fun seeing Cap and Nat trash the tripods too. I liked Francesco Francavilla’s art even if there’s zero imagination in ripping off the tripod designs from Spielberg’s War of the Worlds movie. They somehow travel to another dimension where War of the Worlds tripods rule and they beat them and they wins. Then again this was so crap there’s no way I’m gonna go back and read the backstory!Ĭap and Natasha team up with a clone of Natasha’s from another dimension to battle someone villainous called Kashmir Vennema who wants to take over the world or universe or something mind-numbingly generic.

Visit his website at Captain America and Black Widow! Clones! Cosmic cubes! Alternate dimensions! Evil corporations! How does any of this come together into a coherent storyline? It doesn’t!Īpparently this one is the final part in Cullen Bunn’s short-lived (for a reason) run on this series but there’s no way you’d know that given how it’s advertised: “Captain America & Black Widow” is the title - no volume number, no nothing! So that’s why it’s so confusing to just jump straight into rather than read the book/s before it. Buy him a drink sometime, and he'll tell you all about it.
