Captain America: Sam Wilson, Vol. 1: Not My Captain America by Nick Spencer, Paul Renaud, Daniel Acuña
2.0

Wow...I love Sam.

This was so damn boring.

I get the idea behind it. I actually love internal thoughts from heroes. Sam is especially interesting and a lot of his opinions side with mine so I always enjoy that. HOWEVER, one big issue is this, too much dialog can be a bad thing. Things don't need to be explained for everything you did or will do. You can just show it, or let the art do it's part, but WAY too much dialog can drive anyone crazy.

Then we got a lot of goofy stuff here like the return of wolf cap...it's not funny. It's not entertaining. It's just stupid. It's a waste of an issue and I facepalm throughout this entire portion. I love goofy fun stuff, but not when it's dumb and filler.

Overall the art is all over the place too. Sometimes love it, sometimes the faces look distorted and odd.

I'll be going with a 1.5-2 on this one. It's not very entertaining and I won't be reading past this unless it somehow gets way better.
